The Angelo Bertini Hydroelectric Power Plant is a gem of industrial archaeology located in Porto d'Adda (a hamlet of Cornate d'Adda, Monza and Brianza). Inaugurated on September 28, 1898, by the Edison group, it holds an extraordinary historical record: at the time of its construction, it was the most powerful hydroelectric power plant in Europe and the second in the world, surpassed only by that of Niagara Falls. Its original purpose was fundamental for the modernization of Milan, as it had to supply the energy necessary for the electrification of Milan's tram network, allowing for the definitive replacement of horse-drawn trams.
