Facility I-2. Construction of the Warsaw Żerań Heat and Power Plant in the Years 1950–1958

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the history of the concept, decision-making process and construction of the first stage of the Żerań Heat and Power Plant, one of the most important industrial facilities established during the six-year reconstruction plan for Warsaw (1949–1955). The Heat and Power Plant, built largely according to a Soviet design developed in Leningrad, supplied heat to apartment blocks and provided steam necessary for the operation of Żerań industrial plants, including the Passenger Car Factory. The article is based primarily on archival sources, which allowed for a detailed reconstruction of the individual stages of this economically strategic investment.
