The Bikou Dam is an embankment dam on the Bailong River just upstream of Bikou in Wen County, Gansu Province, China. Construction on the dam began in 1969, the generators were commissioned in 1976 and the dam was complete in 1977. The 1010NaN0 tall earth-core rock-fill dam creates a reservoir with a 5210000000NaN0 capacity.
