Our power plants
VERBUND's power plant fleet consists mostly of run-of-river and storage power plants, supplemented by wind and thermal power.
In Austria, we secure the electricity supply with the combined cycle gas turbine power plant in Mellach. The installed capacity of 832 MW is primarily used to support the grid.
VERBUND opts for wind power as the primary supplement to hydropower. We currently operate six wind farms with a total capacity of 106 MW in the Lower Austrian municipalities of Bruck an der Leitha, Göttlesbrunn, Hollern and Petronell-Carnuntum. We also operate a 226 MW wind farm on Romania’s Black Sea coast. In Rhineland-Palatinate state in Germany, we acquired five wind farms with a total capacity of 86 MW in 2012.
