Detail InformationEdit

The Yacyretá Dam or Hydroelectric Power Station Jasyretâ-Apipé is a dam and hydroelectric power plant built over the waterfalls of Jasyretâ-Apipé in the Paraná River, between the Argentine Province of Corrientes and the Paraguayan City of Ayolas. The dam is named for Yacyretâ Island just upstream, much of which the dam submerged. The word “Yacyreta” is the Hispanicized spelling of the original Guaraní term Jasyretâ.[citation needed]. The dam is 808 meters long, and its installed equipment has a maximum power output of 3,100 MW, with an annual maximum power output of 19,080 Gwh, and a maximum water flow rate of 55,000 cubic meters per second.
The area has an abundant fauna and there are areas for fishing. Fishing is regulated to protect and maintain fish populations, requiring fishing permits that can be obtained in the regional Office of Fishing. The Yacyreta Regional Museum is located in Ayolas. It exhibits archeological objects, minerals and examples of specimens of the native fauna. The Animal Refuge of Atinguy is located 18 kilometers from Ayolas; its territory is roughly 100 hectares, where a great variety of flora and fauna of the region can be found. The refuge provides conditions for the animals to live in a natural environment.
