This template adds an automatically generated short description. If the automatic short description is not optimal, replace it by adding {{Short description}} at the top of article.
Country where the facility is located. Do not use flag icons.
location
General area where located. Avoid being overly-detailed.
purpose
Purpose of the dam(s). Common reasons are power, irrigation, flood control, navigation. If there are several purposes, consider using: Multi-purpose. Field codes: F=Flood control, I=Irrigation, N=Navigation, P=Power, W=Water supply.
status
Current status of the project. Enter any one of the following auto-expanding fields: D=Decommissioned, O=Operational, P=Proposed, UC=Under construction.
construction_began
Date construction began, consider using {{Start date}}.
Number of turbines, with respective rated capacity. Exclude any reversible turbine-generators (pump/generators) and pumps from this — it should only contain conventional generation-only turbines.
plant_pumpgenerators
Number of reversible turbine-generators (pump/generators), with respective rated capacity. For pumped storage plants only.
plant_pumps
Number of pumps, with respective rated capacity. For pumped storage plants only.
plant_capacity
Current installed capacity in megawatts, or planned capacity for those under development. For plants which are operational, but have additional capacity under development, please use only the current installed capacity.
plant_capacity_factor
Capacity factor of the power station, in percentage. For pumped storage, please try to rely solely on third-party sources, as manual capacity factor calculations are overly complex for PSH and their results do not align with figures in (authoritative) third-party sources.
plant_efficiency
Overall efficiency of the power station, in percentage. Generally only applicable to pumped storage.
plant_storage_hours
Storage capacity of the power station, in hours (if desired, you can also provide calculated or actual GWh figures in parenthesis). Generally only applicable to pumped storage.
plant_annual_gen
Average annual power generation. To be used in combination with the following plant_annual_gen_year parameter. GW·h suffix will auto added for number without unit or any text appended.
plant_annual_gen_year
Given generation value exact description. If no description is given, it will default to Annual (i.e. it will expand to Annual generation). Enter following text:
Planned net if given data is a planned estimate net output Planned gross if given data is a planned estimate gross output YYYY net, if given data is year YYYY net output YYYY gross if given data is year YYYY gross output Annual net if given data is a average net output Annual gross if given data is a average gross output
website
Raw wikitext for entering website(s). Use [brackets] where appropriate
The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
