Vockerode Power Plant (also called Elbe Power Plant) was a lignite and later also gas fired power plant in Vockerode, east germany. It was built in 1937 and shut-down between 1994 and 1998. Vockerode has been the site of a power plant for almost 60 years. The four chimneys of the plant were demolished in 2001. The first block of the lignite fired power plant (6 x 35 MW) was built between 1937 and 1940. After 1943 installation was begun on the world's first commercial HVDC, the Elbe Project. It was completed in 1945, but never went in service. After dismantling of the equipment during the soviet occupation the inverter hall was transformed into a workshop and stands still today.
