Saint-Alban, Canada

The Saint-Alban-2 power station is an old hydroelectric power station located on the Sainte-Anne River at the level of the Sainte-Anne River Gorges in Saint-Alban in province of Quebec (Canada). It was built between 1925 and 1927 to replace the Saint-Alban-2 power station, which was destroyed by a flood in 1924. It was in use until 1984. It was built at the start of the 2000s to be included in the Portneuf Regional Natural Park. The power station, the balance chimney, the penstock as well as the dam were cited as heritage building in 2002 by the municipality of Saint-Alban.
