The Sohlstufe Lehen hydropower plant is a run-of-river power plant in the Salzach between the Lehen district and the Itzling district in the north of the city of Salzburg in Austria . It has a bottleneck capacity of 13.7 MW . The structure is also a connecting route for pedestrians and cyclists between the two parts of the city.
General
The Sohlstufe Lehen power plant was put into trial operation on July 2, 2013 after three years of construction and construction costs of 85 million euros, and regular operation took place on September 13, 2013. The system consists of two Kaplan PIT turbines with an absorption capacity of 250 m³ / s and a head of 6.6 m. The structure was designed by Max Rieder and Erich Wagner and was awarded the European Concrete Construction Prize in 2014.
Furthermore, the flood protection in the urban area was improved by the construction and the progressive deepening of the riverbed of the Salzach was reduced. The fish pass attached to the power plant made the Salzach passable again for fish. For the residents, the power plant will create a new connecting bridge between the two banks of the Salzach, as well as newly created local recreation areas.
