Jaruga Hydroelectric Power Plant
Croatia
The 3456th largest power station in the world
The Jaruga Hydroelectric Power Plant is a hydroelectric power plant near Skradinski Buk waterfall on the Krka River in central Dalmatia, Croatia. It is located within the Krka National Park. Built in 1895, the Krka–Šibenik system was one of the first complete polyphase alternating current system of electricity production, transmission, distribution and consumption. It was used to power street lighting, private homes, flour and oil mills, a pasta factory, theaters, cafes, and hotels. The system is recognized as one of the IEEE Milestones. The 1903 successor to the initial plant, known as Jaruga 2, is one of the world's oldest power-generating facilities still in operation. The small hydroelectric plant's current capacity is 7.3 MW, generating an average of 35 GWh annually.
