of\u00a0Odisha\u00a0in India. It is connected to the main Indravati reservoir via a 4.32\u00a0km long and 7 m dia headrace tunnel designed for a discharge capacity of 210 cumecs and terminating in a surge shaft. Currently, it is the largest power-producing dam in eastern India with a capacity of 600\u00a0MW.<br>The Upper Indravati Project envisages the diversion of water of the Indravati river in its upper reaches into the\u00a0Mahanadi river\u00a0basin for power generation and irrigation. In addition to the powerhouse, the project involved the construction of 4 dams across the Indravati and its tributaries, 8 dykes, and two inter-linking channels to form a single reservoir with a live capacity of 1,435.5 Million m3\u00a0and a barrage across the Hati river in the Mahanadi river basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Official name \u2013 Indravati Dam<br>Impounds &#8211; Indravati River<br>Locale &#8211; Nabarangpur<br>Maintained &amp; Operated by &#8211; Odisha Hydro Power Corporation Ltd.<br>Length \u2013 539&nbsp;m<br>Height &#8211; 45&nbsp;m<br>Opening date \u2013 1999<br>Construction Cost \u2013<br>Capacity \u2013 2,300,000,000&nbsp;m3<br>Catchment area &#8211; 2,630&nbsp;km2&nbsp;<br>Surface area \u2013 110&nbsp;km2Geographical Data (Location of map) &#8211; 19\u00b016\u203234.8\u2033N082\u00b049\u203242.4\u2033E<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Location_information_Indravati_Dam\"><\/span>Location information Indravati Dam :<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Indravati Dam is a gravity dam on the Indravati River, about 30km from Nabarangpur, Odisha<br>Address:- Indravati Dam, Nagi, Odisha 766026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ClimateWeather_in_Indravati_Dam\"><\/span><strong>Climate\/Weather in Indravati Dam :<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This area (like neighbouring Koraput) experiences the first arrival of monsoon about ten days before the rest of&nbsp;Odisha.
