The project will provide for the installation of 510MW hydroelectric generating capacity comprising three units of 170MW located between the Sir and Aslantas Hydropower Plants and expansion of the transmission system. The hydro plant would consist of the construction of a double curvature thin arch dam with a height of 201m, an energy tunnel of 2.05km length and an inside diameter of 9.30m, and an underground power plant. The reservoir active volume is 300 million m. When complete, the complex will provide 1,600 GWh p.a. of electric energy. The transmission component consists of construction of 737 km 154 kV transmission lines and 12 substations with installed transformer capacity of 1,350 MVA and a modern load dispatch center.
