The Harjavalta hydropower plant is located in the Satakunta area on the Kokemäkijoki River. It was built in 1939 and is one of the most efficient power plants in southern Finland. The annual openings of the dam when the snowmelts look very dramatic when thundering masses of water find their way towards the Gulf of Bothnia.

History and milestones Early plans (1920s): As early as the 1920s, there were plans for a large hydroelectric project with three power plants in the region, but their implementation failed due to the economic recession at the time.
