Last week, Amerika-Institut students taking part in the undergraduate course “Powering the Nation: Energy in North American History” had the opportunity to take a tour of the Praterkraftwerk in Munich.

The Praterkraftwerk, a project undertaken by Green City and the City of Munich, is a unique hydropower power plant located under the Isar in the heart of Munich.

A huge thank you to Martin Betzold of Green City for giving us insights into the local and global socio-cultural and political context of the plant, and the Amerika-Institut Alumni Association for making this visit possible!
