It is deepest near the Dix Dam with water depth of 249 feet (76 m) and has a mean depth of 78 feet (24 m). The estimated capacity of the lake is 175,000,000,000 US gallons (660,000,000 m 3). [1] The hydroelectric generating station was originally designed to produce 30 megawatts of power.
The Hoover Dam in Arizona and Nevada was the first hydroelectric power station in the United States to have a capacity of at least 1,000 MW upon completion in 1936. Since then numerous other hydroelectric power stations have surpassed the 1,000 MW threshold, most often through the expansion of existing hydroelectric facilities.

In 2014, the state Public Service Commission authorized the construction of a solar photovoltaic array at the E. W. Brown Generating Station. The array will be the first utility-scale solar project in the state, and will be capable of providing 10 MW of power alongside the fossil fuel based generators already operating onsite.
Federal Power Commission granted a license for Cinergy to operate a hydroelectric power plant at the dam. Cinergy was later bought by Duke Energy. The plant has a capacity of 81,000 kVA. [2] On September 27, 2009, the 1,200-foot lock failed and the gates "mismitered" due to a solenoid malfunction. The lock was repaired and reopened on March 1 ...
