Water power is one of the old and tried sources of electricity, and so is the case also in Nötabråne, north of Asarum, where the water power station is located at the beautiful Mieån. In old times, here was a mill - a stone with layers from the mill's waterwheel is still here. The mill was bought in 1896 by Strömma Bomullsspinneri, that built an electrical power station to deliver electricity to their factory. Electricity is still produced here using the turbine from 1904.
