The old Dalsfos Power Plant is located by the Tokevannet lake at the top of the Kragerø watercourse, and is over a century old. The power plant is in daily operation, and one of the original turbines from 1906 is still intact. The facility is worn down and has low efficiency according to today’s standards. Conservation authorities have proposed listing the power plant.

The NVE granted a licence for Nye Dalsfos Power Plant in September 2017.
