A diversion structure (dam) is constructed across the river and a water guide facility (tunnel) is also constructed to guide water flows towards the hydropower station. The station is furnished with two 5.0MW and one 1.25MW vertical water turbine gensets. The reservoir has a total designed capacity of about 9,980,000m3. It is also capable of “seasonal adjustment”, i.e. it can store residual water during flood periods for electricity generation during drought periods.
