Coo-Trois-Ponts Hydroelectric Power Station
The lower reservoir for the power station has an elbow shape as it is a former meander of river Ambleve (now bypassed by a 15m high waterfall). It was formed with two embankment dams, one 10 m (33 ft) high and the other 30 m (98 ft). The maximum reservoir elevation of this reservoir is 248 m (814 ft). Nestled in the hills above and west of the lower reservoir are the upper reserv
