Kraftverkene i Øvre Namsen

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).[1] The venture started in 1958[2] 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.[1] With the establishment of Statkraft, the NVE's shares were transferred there. In 2004, NTE bought Statkraft's share, and the power production was incorporated into NTE's operations.[2]
