Norwegian Museum of Hydro Power and Industry
Experience the beginning of the Norwegian industrial adventure at the Norwegian Museum of Hydropower and Industry. On 20 April 1906, Aktieselskabet Tyssefaldene was founded in engineer Sam Eyde's office in Kristiania.
The basis for the power development in Tyssedal was the water-rich waterfalls from the nearby mountain plateau of Hardangervidda and the establishment of power-intensive industry by the fjord. On 15 June 1906, Tyssefaldene entered into an agreement for the delivery of 20,000 hp from 1 May 1908 for a period of 30 years to The Sun Gas Co. Ltd. and their carbide factory in Odda.
