Middle Dnieper Hydroelectric Station, Power station and dam on Dnieper River in Kamianske, Ukraine.

The Middle Dnieper Hydroelectric Station extends 7,490 meters along the river, featuring eight turbines that generate 352 megawatts of electrical power.

Construction of this Soviet-era infrastructure project began in 1956, with the final generator commissioned in 1964 to support regional industrial development.

The station's name changed from Dniprodzerzhynska HES to its current designation following Ukraine's post-Soviet development and national identity transformation.

This facility maintains water levels for navigation through its lock system while producing 1.4 terawatt-hours of renewable electricity annually for surrounding communities.

Recent military strikes in March 2024 caused critical damage to the power generation capacity while the dam structure remained intact.
