Pitlochry Dam
Pitlochry Dam is a hydroelectric dam located on the River Tummel in Scotland. Completed in 1951, it plays a crucial role in generating renewable energy and managing water flow in the region. The dam is part of the Tummel Hydro Electric Scheme, which includes several other facilities that contribute to Scotland's energy supply.
The dam creates a reservoir that helps regulate river levels and supports local wildlife.
