Explore the history of Nesflaten

From a small West Norwegian village to a powerhouse!

In the 1960s, Nesflaten transformed from a small, traditional West Norwegian village into one of the main hubs for what was, at the time, Norway's largest industrial project: Røldal-Suldal Kraft. To this day, the power plant helps supply Hydro's aluminum factory on Karmøy with renewable and green energy. In the video, former power plant manager, Tor Inge Havrevoll, recounts the time when work began in Nesflaten.
