The hydropower plant will utilize the height of fall below the existing dam at Glomsdam. From Glomsdam and to the lake Drang is another height of fall of approximately two meters. In order to increase the fall height, the project includes canalization to the lake Drang, to lower the water level below the existing dam construction. Expected average annual production of 7,27 GWh
