Pumps water during off-peak and/or low cost periods against a head of 231.6 m. Water flows 1 km up a 3 m diameter steel pipeline into the
Jindabyne -
Island Bend Tunnel. Power is consumed by two main pumps each of 25.4 MW input capacity. Each is assisted by a lower booster pump of 6.7 MW. Pumping capacity is 25 cumecs. Over a year 250 GL may be pumped with the station operating some 6-8 hours a day.
This water then flows into
Geehi Reservoir and then falls 820 m down the western flank of the Snowy Mtns at 240 cumecs, powering Murray 1 and 2 power stations.
