is a gravity dam on the Tone River in Gunma Prefecture of Japan. It is located 140NaN0 north of Minakami. It was constructed between 1951 and 1957. The dam itself supports a single Francis turbine hydroelectric generator with a 23 MW capacity which was commissioned in 1957. The reservoir created by the dam serves as the lower reservoir for the 1,200 Tamahara Pumped Storage Power Station which was commissioned in 1986. The dam is 950NaN0 high and withholds a reservoir with a 524900000NaN0 storage capacity.[1] [2]
