The Bobzin hydroelectric power station near Lübz benefits from the steep gradient of the Elde River there: The adjacent lock, with a lift height of 6.80 meters, is considered the deepest in Mecklenburg. The Zieher family took over the power station and the farmstead of the caretakers' families in 1993. The house has since served as a guesthouse. A vertical water turbine installed in the power station in 1999 once again generates electricity. It also serves as an exhibition space for the Museum of Regional Electricity Supply. The coal shortage after the First World War, among other things, triggered the construction of these facilities. The hydroelectric power station of the Mecklenburg-Schwerin State Electricity Works and the Bobzin lock were built between 1923 and 1925. To integrate this lock into the course of the Elde, a section of the river was straightened, and locks dating back to 1803 were decommissioned. Two of these can still be found in Fahrenhorst and Forsthof near Kuppentin. The power plant remained in operation until its Soviet dismantling in 1946 and, using new technology, began generating electricity again in 1954. Due to technical problems and water shortages (agriculture required a lot of water), the plant was shut down again in 1974.
