Electricity production figure edit

Latest comment: 12 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The article gives the power produced at 250MW, presumably because in the first reference, five turbines with a capacity of 50MW are acknowledged. However, dams NEVER actually produce their maximum level of electricity, so this figure is obviously wrong. The second reference, an abstract from a research paper, states that the electricity produced is 112MW. This sounds far more reasonable to me. Should this figure, 250MW, be changed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.50.219 (talk) 10:14, 26 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

I adjust the wording for installed capacity which is most often cited. Thanks for the catch.--NortyNort (Holla) 14:41, 2 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
