Imaichi Dam, Gravity dam in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan
The Imaichi Dam stretches 177 meters in length across the Togawa River and rises 75.5 meters high, forming a substantial concrete barrier in the landscape.
Tokyo Electric Power Company initiated the construction of Imaichi Dam in 1979, completing the structure in 1986 as part of their hydroelectric infrastructure development.
The dam represents Japanese engineering excellence in water management, contributing to the national focus on renewable energy and resource optimization.
This infrastructure creates a reservoir holding 9.1 million cubic meters of water, with 6.2 million cubic meters available for power generation through the facility.
The dam functions as the lower reservoir for a 1,050-megawatt pumped storage power station, operating through three underground Francis turbines each rated at 350 megawatts.
