    The hydroelectric power station Ohl-Grünscheid has been in operation since 1928. The large factory building and the weir systems are now completely under monument protection.
    More recently, with a storage capacity of 320,000 cubic meters and a gradient of 6.50 meters, a total of 2.18 million kilowatt hours of electricity could be generated and fed into the grid.
