The project consists of a 32 m high dam with 4 penstocks of 44 m length and 7 m diameter each. The surface power house with installed capacity of 132 MW houses 4 units of 33 MW capacity each designed to operate under the net rated head of 21.34 M and designed to generate 594.07 million units in a 90% dependable year with 95% machine availability.
The primary data set used in cost distance analysis is the cost raster, sometimes called the cost-of-passage surface, [9] the friction image, [8] the cost-rate field, or cost surface. In most implementations, this is a raster grid , in which the value of each cell represents the cost (i.e., expended resources, such as time, money, or energy) of ...
The project consists of a 45 m high dam with 4 penstocks of 45 m length and 7 m diameter each. The surface power house with installed capacity of 160 MW houses 4 units of 40 MW capacity each designed to operate under the net rated head of 25.05 M and designed to generate 720 million units in a 90% dependable year with 95% machine availability.
Some DTS systems on the market use a special low power design and are inherently safe in explosive environments, e.g. certified to ATEX directive Zone 0. For use in fire detection application, regulations usually require certified systems according to relevant standards, such as EN 54 -5 or EN 54 -22 (Europe), UL521 or FM (USA), cUL521 (Canada ...
A second dam further upstream, named Laiban dam, was also proposed under the 2012 version of the NCWS-Kaliwa Dam Project, as part of a larger, integrated system. [18] The proposed system was intended to be built in stages, with the approval of Laiban Dam subject to the success of the Kaliwa Low Dam.

The cost of the dam was $13 million ($153,339,181 in 2006 dollars). [6] In 1961 a new Gorge High Dam was completed (300 feet (91 meters)) to replace the original Gorge Dam. This dam was featured in Alan Pakula's 1974 thriller The Parallax View, starring Warren Beatty. Construction of Diablo Dam was begun in 1927, five miles upstream from Gorge Dam.
The study showed no structural damage to the dam, [12] but that most of the project's facilities would need to be rebuilt at a cost of US$383 million. [13] As of August 2008, the Liberian government was considering privatization of the project for a fixed number of years as the nation did not have the resources to fund the repair. [13]
