The concrete gravity dam has a height of 90 m and a length of 800 m. The dam's reservoir has a surface area of 135 km² and a capacity of 2,180 million m³. The hydroelectric power plant was fitted with 2 x 67.5 MWe Francis turbines with a total capacity of 135 Mwe. Major maintenance work carried out between 2003-2007 included replacing the turbines with 2 x 85 MWe units with a total capacity of 170 MWe, which generate 488 GWh per year.〔 ==Cerrón Grande Lake== The Cerrón Grande reservoir (Spanish: ''Embalse Cerrón Grande''), locally known as Suchitlán Lake, is the largest body of fresh water in El Salvador.
