The hydroelectric plant at Almatti dam has set a new record in generating the second highest quantum of electricity in the last over a decade. According to officials, for 2019-20, the plant has generated 631.5 million units. The plant, which began operations in 2006 in full capacity, generated 664 million units in 2007-08. If all units generate power with their full capacity, then everyday, they could generate six million units of power. The officials are hoping to receive adequate water into the dam to generate electricity more than the set target.
