Chamera Dam

The Chamera Dam is a concrete gravity dam across the River Ravi, located near the town of Dalhousie, in the Chamba district in the state of Himachal Pradesh in India. A large proportion of the resultant reservoir, called Chamera Lake, lies in the Salooni sub-division of Chamba and was established for the purpose of generating hydroelectricity. The Chamera hydroelectric plants were completed in three phases in 1994, 2003 and 2012. The first plant uses conventional hydroelectric methods for generating power, whilst the second two plants use run-of-the-river methods. The combined generating capacity of the three plants is 1,071 megawatts (1.436×10^6 hp).
