Hydroelectric power station, Canada. Water descending from a reservoir to the river below drives turbines to generate electricity. This is the Brazeau hydroelectric power station, on the Brazeau River, Alberta, Canada. The power station was commissioned in 1965, and generates 355 megawatts of electrical power. Its water comes from the Brazeau Reservoir, behind the Brazeau Dam.
