The '''Dharasu Power Station''' is a [[run-of-the-river|run-of-the-river hydroelectric]] power station on the [[Bhagirathi River]] located at [[Dharasu]] in [[Uttarkashi district]], [[Uttarakhand]], [[India]]. The power station was commissioned in 2008 and has a 304 MW capacity.

==Background==
The power station is stage two of the '''Maneri Bhali Hydroelectric Project''' which was planned in the 1960s. In 1979, construction on stage two began. In 1984, the first stage, the 90 MW [[Tiloth Power Plant]] located upstream at [[Uttarkashi]] at {{Coord|30|43|36|N|78|26|44|E|name=Tiloth Power Station}} was completed. Dharasu, the second stage was halted in 1990 due to funding issues and was not restarted until 2002.<ref>{{cite web|title=Power from Maneri Bhali by year-end|url=http://www.euttaranchal.com/news/general/power-from-maneri-bhali-by-year-end.html|publisher=Outlook India|accessdate=11 July 2011|date=12 March 2006}}</ref> The power station was eventually completed and commissioned by 2008.<ref name=main>{{cite web|title=Dharasu HEP (4x76=304 MW)|url=http://www.uttarakhandjalvidyut.com/MB%20Stage-II/MB-II.htm|publisher=Uttaranchal Jal Vidyut Nigam Limited|accessdate=11 July 2011|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091227141409/http://www.uttarakhandjalvidyut.com/MB%20Stage-II/MB-II.htm|archivedate=27 December 2009|df=dmy-all}}</ref>

==Design==
Water supplied to the power station is first diverted from the Bhagirathi River into a {{Convert|16|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long tunnel by the {{Convert|81|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} long '''Bhali (Joshiyara) Dam''' located upstream near Bhali at {{Coord|30|43|46|N|78|25|25|E|name=Joshiyara Barrage}}. The difference in elevation between the barrage and the power station affords a design [[hydraulic head]] of {{Convert|247.6|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} and gross head of {{Convert|285|m|ft|0|abbr=on}}. The water powers four 76 [[megawatt|MW]] [[Francis turbine]]-generators before being discharged back into the river. The design discharge of the power station is {{Convert|142|m3/s|ft3/s|0|abbr=on}}.<ref name=main/><ref>{{cite web|title=The Challenge and Status of The Maneri Bhali Stage-II Hydroelectric Project|url=http://www.uttarakhandjalvidyut.com/maneri_bhali.htm|publisher=Uttaranchal Jal Vidyut Nigam Limited|accessdate=12 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110911153606/http://www.uttarakhandjalvidyut.com/maneri_bhali.htm|archive-date=11 September 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref>
