List of hydropower plants in Upper Austria

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of hydropower plants in Upper Austria contains information on hydropower plants with an output of 100 kW and more that are located in the federal state of Upper Austria . The location of the power plant is that of the power house and not of the ancillary facilities (e.g. weir systems or similar) (often in the case of border rivers). Hydroelectric power plants generate mechanical or electrical energy from the kinetic energy of the water.
