The following page lists hydroelectric power stations that generate power using the run-of-the-river method. This list includes most power stations that are larger than 100 MW in maximum net capacity, which are currently operational or under construction.
Bull Run Dam (Bull Run Creek) [67] 69 ft (21 m) 0 ... Upper Malad River Dam 124.1 ft (37.8 m) [127] 8.27 ...
Many of the larger run-of-the-river projects have been designed to a scale and generating capacity rivaling some traditional hydroelectric dams. [8] For example, the Beauharnois Hydroelectric Generating Station in Quebec is rated at 1,853 MW. [9] Some run-of-the-river projects are downstream of other dams and reservoirs.
The dam reduced streamflows on the lower 1.7 miles (2.7 km) of the Little Sandy River and blocked all salmon and steelhead access to the upper 6.5 miles (10.5 km) of the river. [1] Roslyn Lake was at 656 feet (200 m) above sea level, [ 2 ] about 400 feet (120 m) higher than the mouth of the Bull Run River , at 242 feet (74 m). [ 3 ]
The removal of the four hydroelectric dams — Iron Gate Dam, Copco Dams 1 and 2, and JC Boyle Dam — allows the region’s iconic salmon population to swim freely along the Klamath River and its ...
Despite the large difference in installed capacity between Three Gorges Dam and Itaipu Dam, they generate nearly equal amounts of electrical energy during the course of an entire year - Itaipu 103 TWh in 2016 [1] and Three Gorges 111.8 TWh in 2020, [2] because the Three Gorges experiences six months per year when there is very little water ...
Following is a list of dams and reservoirs in Pennsylvania. All major dams are linked below. The National Inventory of Dams defines any "major dam" as being 50 feet (15 m) tall with a storage capacity of at least 5,000 acre-feet (6,200,000 m 3), or of any height with a storage capacity of 25,000 acre-feet (31,000,000 m 3).

Beaver Dam near Eureka Springs, Arkansas was built between 1960 and 1966 for $46 million. [15] It confines Beaver Lake, the most upstream dam and reservoir on the river. A total of eight dams impound the upper White River, six in Arkansas and two in Missouri. The White River National Wildlife Refuge lies along the lower part of the river.
