This power station, a “power cathedral”, which borrows its shape from architecture with symbolic contents and status, has now become an “energy centre” under the direction of the owner, BKK.
A supply line was built to Bergen by Stanghelle, Osterøy, Romslo and Haukeland to Ramneberget. The major works at Dale at times required large working forces, in 1925 around 130 men. The power development in Bergsdalen continued, based on the regulation of Torfinns watercourse in 1932 and Hamlagrøvatnet in 1924. In 1948 the Storefoss reservoir was extended, and in 1990 a new power station was ready, with an operating tunnel and an aggregate of 110 MW.
It is this one that has replaced the power station from 1927, which has a place amongst the technical cultural monuments in Hordaland, together with Gåssand in Os, Hummelfossen in Masfjorden and Tyssedal in Hardanger.
