About the Project
The new Leipzig South Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plant is setting a benchmark for sustainable energy infrastructure in Germany. The plant combines cutting-edge gas turbines with advanced emissions-reducing technology, and provides electricity and district heating to Leipzig, while meeting strict environmental standards.

To maintain both functionality and aesthetics, the plant required a ventilation louvre solution that could deliver reliable airflow, defend against wind-driven rain, and visually integrate across different parts of the facility.

The CS Solution
Construction Specialties (CS) supplied high-performance RSH-5700AL Rain Defence Louvres to ensure efficient airflow and protection. Tested to EN 13030 they achieve Class A rain protection up to 3.0 m/s face velocity. A total of 245 m² of louvres were installed across the Main Power Plant, Gas Supply Facility, and Pump House. They were finished in various RAL colours to match each building’s design, helping unify the visual identity of the facility.
