The Koyna Hydroelectric Project is the second largest hydroelectric power plant in India, just after the Tehri Dam Project.[1] It is a complex project with four dams including the largest dam on the Koyna River, Maharashtra, hence the name Koyna Hydroelectric Project. The project site is in Satara district.
The Koyana Dam situated near Koyananagar village. On river Koyana.
The total capacity of the project is 1,960 MW. The project consists of four stages of power generation. All the generators are located in underground powerhouses excavated deep inside the mountains of the Western Ghats. A dam foot powerhouse also contributes to the electricity generation. Due to the project's electricity generating potential the Koyna River is considered as the life line of Maharashtra.
The project takes advantage of the height of Western Ghats. Thus a very large hydraulic head is available over a very short distance.
