Pumping Station J.L. Hoogland
The electric pumping station J.L. Hoogland in Stavoren was ready in 1966. The building with a curved roof is designed by the Dutch architect P. de Vries. In the hall are four screw pumps, each with a diameter of 3.60 meters. The pump discharges the water from the Frisian bosom on the IJsselmeer. It took the task from another pumping station in Friesland that water discharges at the IJsselmeer, the ir D.F. Wouda pumping station at Lemmer. This station only jumps in when the water levels are extremely high. The pump capacity of the J.L. Hoogland pumping station is 6,000 m3 per minute, half times greater than the Wouda station.
In 2008, work started at the pumps to revise and modernize the electric motors to increase the capacity and efficiency. In 24h the J.L. Hoogland pumping station pumps 8.5 million cubic meters of water to the lake. This compares with a tank capacity of 1 km by 1 km with a height of 8.5 meters.
