  • Visited this place this May. Wonderful location and views of the dam.
  • Turkey's second largest dam. It was built between 1965-1975 in order to generate electricity on the Euphrates river in the Keban district of Elazig, from which it takes its name. The artificial pond it created is the fourth largest lake in Turkey. With a total installed power of 1330 megawatts, when it was established, it alone met 20% of Turkey's energy need, but now it meets 1.8% with the increasing need over time.
