It utilises 200 cumecs of water by constructing a 516.5 m long gated barrage across river Yamuna at Dakpathar, 3 km. downstream of Kalsi (Dehradun), into a 13.6 km. long lined power channel.
Two power houses first at Dhakrani with an installed capacity 33.75 MW and the second at the tail end Dhalipur with an installed capacity 51.0 MW were constructed to generate hydro power utilizing the available drop of about 50 m. in this reach.
