The Bikou Dam (Chinese: 碧口水电站) is an embankment dam on the Bailong River just upstream of Bikou in Wen County, Gansu Province, China. Construction on the dam began in 1969, the generators were commissioned in 1976 and the dam was complete in 1977. The 101 m (331 ft) tall earth-core rock-fill dam creates a reservoir with a 521,000,000 m3 (422,382 acre⋅ft) capacity. The dam supports a 300 MW power station.[1][2][3] The dam sustained some damage from the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.[4]
