After the outline of the 337 meters high chimney of the power station the chimney is westrecovered starting from end of 2006 the highest chimney of Germany to be. 2002 were brought the power station on the newest technical conditions and also the efficiency was increased.
[edit] History
The power station was planned end of the 1970s, when the old Federal Republic of Germany actually needed no more river. The new power plant construction created however additional jobs in coal mines and in the generation of electricity. The power station should be operated with the schwefelhaltigen salzkohle of the environment. For the used quantity specially a new open mining was driven. The operator Braunschweigi coal mines AG (BKB) supported by the CDU federal state government of Lower Saxony did not refuse the installation of a flue gas desulphurating plant as to the state of the art accordingly. There the insight became generally accepted for the installation of the flue gas desulphurating plant only slowly. The nachruestung would leave itself temporal in in its opinion only in the power station shrub house without flue gas desulphurating plant to make. In this time there were several except-parliamentary actions. The new Federal Government Kohl exerts itself due to the strong political pressure for a two years later start-up of shrub house, in order to then start with a desulfurization plant the enterprise. Thus it stood against the federal state government of Lower Saxony of Ernst Albrecht. In a special meeting of the federal daily called up by the SPD on 31 July 1984, to which the delegates had to be called from the vacation, the politicians decide a compromise: Shrub house goes to the net, may fire the schwefelhaltige salzkohle however without flue gas desulphurating plant not, but a sulfur-poor variant from other mines. By far legal fights was shifted start-up still until March 1985. But in the Federal Republic of Germany this meant for the first time a decision with strong consideration of the environmental protection thought.
