The expansion includes one vertical propeller turbine-generator set, pen-stocks and draft tubes, and one new three-phase transformer. The addition of the new generating unit adds 78.3 MW to the existing capacity for a total site capacity of 233.3 MW at a head of 30.5 meters. ? As part of the expansion, a tail-race gate hoisting system is installed on the existing powerhouse tail-race deck, extending over the new tail-race deck of the powerhouse extension.
