Hydroelectric Power Plant Höllental/Upper Franconia - Water Tower. To harness the hydropower of the Selbitz River in the Franconian Höllental, a strong gradient is needed. The valley of the small river does not provide this. Therefore, almost 2 kilometers upstream from the power plant, the water is dammed at a weir and channeled through pipelines to the power plant. There, it is temporarily stored in a water tower and then fed to the turbine from a height of just over 30 meters. 13.08.2012
