This dam does not actually make any power, but instead is simple used to store water and control water levels downstream for the approximately 85 MW of various hydropower plants located downstream, along with providing a steady source of water to the long shuttered Rowe Nuclear Plant, the first commercial electric generating nuclear plant built in the United States. The circa 1961 Rowe Nuclear Plant in Masschussets produced roughly 185 MW before closing due to cracking in it's containment structure.
