Location
The Landro power plant is located in Sierra del Xistral (Lugo, Spain). The structure is integrated into the landscape due to features such as the fact that the penstock and all electricity lines are laid underground.
The structure uses local materials: flagstones, timber and slate. It looks quite like a typical farmhouse from the region.
