Afulilo Dam
The Afulilo Dam is a gravity dam on the Afulilo River about south of Ta'elefaga in the district of Va'a-o-Fonoti on Upolu island of Samoa. The primary purpose of the dam is hydroelectric power generation and it supports a power station. It is the largest hydroelectric power station by installed capacity in Samoa. First studied in 1980, construction on the project began in 1990 and the power station was commissioned in 1993. Funding for the US$26.6 million project was provided by the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, International Development Association, European Investment Bank, and European Economic Community loans and grants.
==Ta'elefaga Hydroelectric Plant==
Water from the tall dam is sent down of headrace pipe before it reaches of penstock. The penstock terminates at Ta'elefaga Hydroelectric Plant where the water spins two Pelton turbine-generators. The elevation between the reservoir and the power station affords a hydraulic head (water drop) of . Efforts to add a third 2 MW turbine-generator and raise the dam by , thereby increasing the reservoir capacity by 50% to , are currently being studied. In April 2009 SMEC Holdings was awarded a consultancy contract for this work by the Asian Development Bank.
