As a part of the full admiral watercourse electricity Project, the ability station was completed in 1973 and therefore the last generator commissioned in 1974. It’s Associate in Nursing put in capability of one,220 MW and is that the second largest station in Canadian province.
Construction on the station began within the spring of 1966 and it had been administered in many phases. First, the ability house was made once a circular coffer dam was attack the correct aspect of the watercourse.

Of the river’s 885 m (2,904 ft) breadth, the ability house covers 380 m (1,247 ft) or forty three %. The wasteweir covers twenty two % within the center of the dam and therefore the earth-fill dam completes the remaining thirty five % long. The dam’s wasteweir is controlled by eight floodgates and might discharge up to eight,349 m3/s (294,842 metal ft/s) of water. The ability house contains twelve one02 MW propeller-type turbine-generators for Associate in Nursing put in capability of 1,220 MW. Every rotary engine will discharge up to 270 m3/s (9,535 metal ft/s) and ar afforded thirty m (98 ft) of hydraulic head.
