La Yesca Dam is an embankment dam on the Santiago River 90 km (56 mi) northwest of Guadalajara on the border of Mexico's Nayarit and Jalisco states. Construction on the dam began in 2007 after Empresas ICA was awarded the main construction contract. The dam was inaugurated by President Felipe Calderón on 6 November 2012.[2] The dam supports a 750 MW hydroelectric power station and is part of the Hydroelectric System Santiago.[3] Its construction will improve the regulation of water flow and subsequently power generation downstream at the El Cajón and Aguamilpa Dams.[4]

Design


The La Yesca Dam is a 220 m (722 ft) tall and 628 m (2,060 ft) long concrete-face rock-fill embankment type with 11,900,000 m3 (15,564,612 cu yd) of fill. The dam's crest elevation is 579 m (1,900 ft) above sea level and it sits at the head of a 51,590 km2 (19,919 sq mi) catchment area. On the dam's left bank is a spillway controlled by six radial gates. The maximum discharge of the spillway is 15,915 m3/s (562,033 cu ft/s). The dam's reservoir has a capacity of 2,500,000,000 m3 (2,026,783 acre⋅ft) of which 1,392,000,000 m3 (1,128,513 acre⋅ft) can be used for generating electricity. The reservoir has a surface area of 33.4 km2 (13 sq mi) and a normal elevation of 575 m (1,886 ft). The power station contains two 375 MW Francis turbine generators producing an estimated annual generation of 1,210 GWh.[1]

Die La-Yesca-Talsperre ist eine im November 2012 in Betrieb genommene Talsperre am Río Grande de Santiago 90 km nordwestlich von Guadalajara auf der Grenze der mexikanischen Bundesstaaten Nayarit und Jalisco. Der Bau des Schüttdammes begann 2007, nachdem Empresas ICA den Bauauftrag gewonnen hatte. Die feierliche Eröffnung erfolgte am 6. November 2012.[1] Die Talsperre dient dem Betrieb eines Wasserkraftwerks mit 750 MW Leistung und ist Teil des Wasserkraftsystems am Santiago.[2] Mit dem Bau wird der Wasserabfluss reguliert und die Wasserkraftnutzung an den unterhalb gelegenen Talsperren El Cajón und Aguamilpa verbessert.[3]
