Power Plant
The Mossyrock Dam's power plant contains 2 x 150 MW Francis turbine hydroelectric generators totaling a 300 MW capacity. The generators are fed by three penstocks ranging from 248 – 285 ft. feet long. One of the three penstocks is unused as the plant has an additional space for one more generator.
