Robert-Bourassa Generating Facility More details...
Get off the beaten track and head for adventure on the taiga! Witness the splendour of the North as you discover a hydroelectric power plant of mammoth proportions: Robert-Bourassa dam, high as a 53-storey building; the world’s largest underground power plant, located 140 metres (460 feet) underground; the gigantic spillway; and La Grande-1, a generating station built by more than 6,000 workers. All in all, the James Bay Project adds up to a truly “electrifying” experience!
