Power Plant Mravenecnik

The first Wind Power Plant of CEZ, a. s., having 315 kW of power output, commenced its trial operation in Krusne Mountains (the Dlouha Louka u Oseka location) in November 1993. On this model power plant, a number of tests and measurements were conducted, e. g. air turbulence effects on the power output, icing and atmospheric electricity effects on power plant operation, power plant operation impacts on the surrounding environment, operation optimization, etc. In 2000, the CEZ company donated this complete, experimental, power plant to the Academy of Science Atmosphere Physics Institution. In 1998, a farm of wind power plants, consisting of three power stations of 220 kW, 315 kW, and 630 kW power output, in Mravenecnik at Kouty nad Desnou (Jeseniky Mountains), was commissioned into permanent operation. In the period between 1997 and 2002, the set of renewable sources included, in addition, a photovoltaic power plant having 10 kW power output. Since 2003, the solar power plant is situated in the NPP Dukovany area.
