In the foreground a new Angara Bridge Opened October 14, 2007 Length of the bridge - 1,62km. The maximum height from the bottom of the column to the top of the railing - 52 m. In the background of the Irkutsk hydroelectric dam. Irkutsk Hydroelectric Power Station is the first stage of the Angara cascade. Construction began in 1950, completed in 1958. According to the dam road crossing passes. Shipping locks HPP has not, since the through navigation on the Angara is missing, but the place is reserved for the gateway. Power Hydroelectric Power Station - 662.4 MW. Irkutsk Dam and Reservoir 2

It is worth noting that despite the abundance of external old equipment at the station replaced a lot of things - power transformers, circuit breakers for switchgear (supplied gas-insulated), the system of own needs, etc. Irkutsk Hydroelectric Power Station.

Irkutsk Dam and Reservoir

Irkutsk Reservoir - the first stage of the Angara cascade of man-made reservoirs. It was formed as a result of the construction of the dam in 1956, the Irkutsk hydroelectric station and filled in for 7 years. During this time, backwater from the dam spread to Lake Baikal, raising his average long-term rate of 1 m. Thus, on the one hand, the Angara valley turned into a bay of Lake Baikal, and on the other - the great lake itself has become a major part of the regulatory Irkutsk reservoir. Indeed, the effective volume of the reservoir area Angarsk - 0.45 cubic km - provides a daily flow regulation, while the useful volume of the Baikal area - 46 cubic km (or two orders of magnitude greater) - allows you to provide a deep and long-term annual runoff control and uniformity of the entire stage.
