history

The company was on April 27, 1917 as a public limited company under the Company Innwerk, Bavarian Aluminum AG with a capital of 13.2 million Mark in Munich founded. The shareholders were originally the German Reich with 4.0 million marks and the Kingdom of Bavaria with 1.2 million marks, as well as the companies Gebrüder Giulini  GmbH with 4.0 million marks, AEG with 2.0 million marks and Siemens- Schuckertwerke  GmbH with 2.0 million marks. In 1920 the German Reich took over the shares of the companies involved due to economic problems. On 23 September 1918, the decision to have a weir fell in Jettenbach to the left side Innkanal and a hydroelectric power plant in Töging am Inn to build. On September 20, 1920 it was decided to build  the aluminum smelter in Töging together with the United Aluminum-Werke AG (VAW) .

After VIAG was founded on March 7, 1923, the Innwerk became a subsidiary of VIAG.

On October 10, 1924, the power station in Töging supplied electricity for the first time. On January 1, 1925, VAW took over the aluminum smelter in Töging. The Innwerk thus became a pure electric utilities, the company Innwerk, Bavarian Aluminum AG was but only in 1938 Innwerk AG changed.

From 1935 to 1938, the Innwerk built the Gars , Teufelsbruck and Wasserburg hydropower plants . In order to supply the newly built VAW-Mattigwerk in Ranshofen with electricity, it was commissioned to build the Ering-Frauenstein (1939 to 1942) and Egglfing-Obernberg (1941 to 1944) power plants on the lower Inn .

After the Second World War, the Innwerk built the Neuötting (1948 to 1951), Stammham (1953 to 1955), Rosenheim (1957 to 1960), Feldkirchen (1967 to 1970) and Perach (1974 to 1977) power plants.

On October 16, 1950, the Austrian-Bavarian Power Plants  (ÖBK) was founded by a state treaty between Austria and Bavaria with the aim of further expanding the use of hydropower on the lower Inn. At the time it was founded, Innwerk AG held a 25% stake in ÖBK, the other shareholders were Verbund AG  (50%) and Bayernwerk  AG (25%).

On behalf of the ÖBK, the Innwerk built the barrages in Braunau-Simbach (1951 to 1954), Schärding-Neuhaus (1959 to 1961) and Passau-Ingling (1962 to 1965).

When the Free State of Bavaria sold its majority stake in Bayernwerk to VIAG in 1994 , Bayernwerk also took over VIAG's shares in Innwerk. On January 1, 1996, the assets of the Innwerk were incorporated into Bayernwerk Wasserkraft AG. E.ON Energie was created in the course of the merger of PreussenElektra and Bayernwerk .

In 2009, E.ON sold 13 hydropower plants under pressure from the EU Commission to Verbund, which has since operated the power plants through Verbund-Innkraftwerke  GmbH, based in Töging. In 2013 E.ON sold 8 more hydropower plants to Verbund. Innwerk AG continues to exist as a shell company without fixed assets .

EVN and Wien Energie each acquire 13% of Verbund Innkraftwerke GmbH.
