The Pullach power plant is a run-of-river power plant on the Isar .

The power plant, which opened in 1904, is located near Pullach in the Upper Bavarian district of Munich . The electrical output of the power plant is 4.1  megawatts . The operator of the power plant is Uniper Kraftwerke GmbH (formerly E.ON Wasserkraft ). The power plant is not located directly on the Isar, but is supplied with water from a 12 km long Isar works canal diverted from Buchenhain , which flows back into the Isar at the Braunau railway bridge .

In order to enable the excursion rafts that run from Wolfratshausen to Munich to pass through the canal, there is an approximately 100-meter-long raft slide at the power plant .

After the one in Höllriegelskreuth, the power plant was the second of the Isarwerke GmbH, which was built in 1894 by the Munich building contractor Jakob Heilmann together with Wilhelm von Finck , co-owner of the Merck Finck & Co bank and Johannes Kaempf , board member of the Bank for Trade and Industry , later Danat- Bank that had been established.
