Tumut 3 Power Station

Tumut 3 Power Station is a large hydroelectric facility in New South Wales, Australia. It generates electricity by using the flow of water from the Tumut River, which is stored in a reservoir. The stored water is released to spin turbines, converting water's energy into electrical power. These turbines are connected to generators that produce electricity supplied to the grid. As a clean and renewable energy source, Tumut 3 helps meet regional power needs while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Its operation is controlled to ensure a steady, reliable flow of electricity consistent with demand.
