The Eastmain Reservoir is a reservoir which lies about 800 kilometres north of Montreal. The reservoir is part of a project known as the Eastmain-1-A/Sarcelle/Rupert Project which is designed to increase hydroelectric power for the Canadian province.[1] Some of the structures along this reservoir include the Eastmain-1 power house and the Eastmain-1-A power house, which are under construction.[1] Eastmain-1 has three water turbines that can collectively generate as much as 480 megawatt hours of electricity, according to the EM-1 Project plan.[1] Meanwhile, HydroQuébec explains that Eastmain-1-A is intended to supplement its slightly older neighbor.[1] When complete, Eastmain-1-A is expected to generate up to 768 megawatts.[1]
