The Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station is one of the ten largest hydroelectric power stations in Ukraine.
It is the sixth stage in the cascade of hydraulic structures on the Dnieper River.
The area of the reservoir mirror (2,155 km2) is approximately equal to the area of Moscow.
The total volume is more than 13 billion cubic meters
What will happen if the dam is destroyed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces?
Wave height can be up to 4.8 meters, spill width - 5 kilometers.
The water will rush at a speed of about 25 km/h.
The breakthrough wave will reach the Kherson line in 2 hours, the maximum water level (+ 5 meters) - in 14 hours.
If the dam breaks, the water will flood about 6.5 thousand hectares.
