The project currently being applied for envisages the construction of a new weir in Jettenbach with an increase of 70 cm in the final level, the corresponding adaptation of dams and dikes in the reservoir area, an increase of up to 70 m³/s in the volume of expansion water and the installation of three Kaplan turbines. The latter will be housed in a new power plant building whose external façade has been designed by the architects Format Elf from Töging.
Due to the special conditions at the Töging site, the annual output will be increased by 120 GWh to a total of 685 GWh through the use of state-of-the-art machine technology. This will result in a unique increase in efficiency of over 18%. The total output of the renovated power plant on the Inn will correspond to the annual electricity consumption of around 200,000 Bavarian households.
Extensive supporting ecological measures will improve the overall ecology of this section of the river:
