Viewpoint: Spillway - Itaipú hydroelectric power station and dam

The spillway at the Itaipú hydropower plant and dam is an impressive engineering structure that serves to regulate the excess water that can occur during heavy rainfall or floods. It enables the controlled discharge of water from the dam, preventing flooding and damage. The spillway is an important part of the entire hydropower plant and contributes to efficient energy generation and flood protection in the region. Admission to the Itaipú hydroelectric power plant and dam is around: 56R$ (bus tour) | 160R$ (bus tour incl. guided tour and visit to the inside of the power plant).
