Kraftverkene i Øvre Namsen

Power Stations

Kraftverkene i Øvre Namsen ("The Power Stations in Upper Namsen") or KØN was a joint venture between the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) and Nord-Trøndelag Elektrisitetsverk (NTE). The venture started in 1958 and consisted of three wholly owned hydroelectric power stations in Norway and a partial ownership in one power station in Sweden, which opened between 1962 and 1965. With the establishment of Statkraft, the NVE's shares were transferred there.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
