Oigawa Dam, Gravity dam and hydroelectric station in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan.
The Oigawa Dam rises 33.5 meters high and extends 65.8 meters across the Oi River, generating electrical power through its integrated hydroelectric facility.
Construction of the dam began in 1934 through a joint Anglo-Japanese venture, with British interests later being acquired by Japanese companies in 1921.
The dam represents early Japanese industrial development, marking the transition from international partnerships to domestic infrastructure management in the power generation sector.
The facility maintains a reservoir of 788,000 cubic meters and connects to Shizuoka Station through regular bus services via Prefectural Road 60.
The hydroelectric power station operates with a capacity of 68,200 KW, serving as the second dam constructed on the main stream of the Oi River.
