Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant, Hydroelectric power station in Nova Kakhovka, Ukraine.
The Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant stretches 3.2 kilometers across the Dnipro River, incorporating concrete barrage sections, power generation facilities, and navigation locks.
The construction of this power facility started in September 1950, with the final generator commissioned in October 1956 as part of Soviet industrial expansion.
The power plant represents a significant example of mid-20th century industrial engineering in Ukraine, demonstrating the period's focus on large infrastructure projects.
The facility supplied electricity to regional communities and provided essential cooling water to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station, located 160 kilometers upstream.
The dam's reservoir contained 18 cubic kilometers of water, making it a critical component in Ukraine's network of six hydroelectric installations on the Dnipro River.
