Reefton Power Station was the first power station to supply municipal electricity in the Southern Hemisphere.〔New Zealand Historical Atlas'' – McKinnon, Malcolm (Editor); David Bateman, 1997, Plate 88〕 It supplied electricity to the town of Reefton in New Zealand. The power station turbine was run by water supplied from the Inangahua River via two tunnels and a headrace flume. After the town was connected to the National Grid in 1949 the power station was decommissioned. Parts of the original structure remain and are accessible via a walking track,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Reefton short walks )〕 and there are plans for restoration of the site. Stage 1 of this planned restoration was completed on April 11, 2015. This included new signage, riverbank preservation and walking track restoration. ==See also== *Electricity sector in New Zealand *List of power stations in New Zealand 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reefton Power Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
