Zemmbach-Wasserkraftwerk - Bezirk Schwaz, Tirol, A - Hydroelectric Power Stations on Waymarking.com

Dieses, am Zemmbach gelegene, Wasserkraftwerk (Baujahr 1967, Leistung ca. 45 kW), dient unter anderem der Energieversorgung der Berliner Hütte. Es wird 2012 erneuert und erweitert.

Bereits 1910 erhielt die Hütte im Zuge der Erweiterung sein erstes Wasserkraftwerk zur Stromerzeugung. Zwei Jahre später konnte dann mit einer 15 bis 16 PS starken Pelton-Turbine die elektrische Beleuchtungsanlage mit 200 Glühlampen in Betrieb genommen werden.

1967 errichtete die DAV Sektion ein neues Wasserkraftwerk mit rund 40 Kilowatt Leistung, womit erstmals ein elektrischer Küchenherd betrieben werden konnte.
