Kaprun Main Stage
Storage Power Plant

The Kaprun Main Stage power plant in the municipality of Kaprun in Salzburg is part of a large power generation group consisting of reservoirs and power plants.

The four storage reservoirs (Margaritze, Mooserboden, Wasserfallboden and Klammsee), the highest of which is situated 2,000 metres above sea level, guarantee an optimal water supply for the Kaprun plant group, supported by pumping stations and pumped storage power plants. The first reservoirs and the Kaprun main stage storage power station were built between 1938 and 1953 and consumed a large amount of resources.
