About the upper kolab dem
Upper Kolab Hydro Electric Project, Located in the district of Koraput (odisha) was taken up for excavation in the year 1976 by the Irrigation and Power Department, Govt .of odisha at an estimated cost of Rs. 74.63 Crores.This Project is utilising the water potential of river 'KOLAB'a tributary of river Godavari.
It is the highest electricity producer of Odisha. KolabDem produce electricity and supply to all over south Odisha(Koraput,malkangiri,Nabrangpur Districts).
Water of kolab river stores at kolab dem.
Best part of kolab dem is after generating the electric power the waste water supply for farming by the channel(kenal)to the all over koraput district.

Brief History of the upper kolab dem
Preliminary investigations for the project were carried out by the Goverment of Madras before April 1936. At that time Koraput district was a part of Madras Presidency and subsequently detailed investigations were carried out by Govt. of odisha after 1961. The present proposal was finalised after investigating several proposals with alternative dam sites and water conductor systems.The power project was approved by the Planning Commission during August 1975 and irrigation project in june 1976.
how it produce electicity
behind the production of hydropower is simple; it uses the energy of flowing water. Many hydropower plants benefit from several storage schemes, and in some river systems a number of power stations are positioned in cascade one after the other, so that the water’s energy can be exploited several times before it finally flows out into the sea. Inside the power station, the water drives a turbine, whose mechanical energy is turned into electrical energy in the generator. Hydropower is a highly flexible energy source, since the water can be stored in the reservoirs until needed. Hydropower schemes without reservoirs are often called run-of-river.
