The Moragolla Dam is a planned hydroelectric dam in Moragolla, Sri Lanka. The dam is to be 35 m (115 ft) high and is planned to create the 1,980,000 m 3 (70,000,000 cu ft) Moragolla Reservoir with a maximum supply level at 548 m (1,798 ft) MSL . [ 1 ]
Most of these dams are governed by the Mahaweli Authority, while the Ceylon Electricity Board operates dams used for hydroelectric power generation. Hydroelectric dams, including small hydros, account for nearly half of the installed power capacity of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka is pockmarked with many irrigation dams, with its water resource ...
The Nilambe Dam is a small hydroelectric dam build across the Nilambe River, measuring approximately 70 m (230 ft) in length. Water from the Nilambe Dam is transferred to the 3.2-megawatt Nilambe Power Station through a 2.8 km (1.7 mi) penstock. The power station consists of two 1.6 MW generating units, which were commissioned in July 1988. [1] [2]
The Broadlands Dam (also known as the Broadlands Hydropower Project by the developers) is a 35 MW run-of-the-river hydroelectric complex currently under construction in Kitulgala, Sri Lanka. The project is expected to be completed in 2020, and will consist of two dams, and a power station downstream.
The dam creates the relatively small Rantembe Reservoir, which has a catchment area of 3,118 km 2 (1,204 sq mi), and a total capacity of 21,000,000 m 3 (740,000,000 cu ft). Water from the reservoir is channelled through the dam through a steel penstock to power the two 26- megawatt turbines .
