The '''Maccabi Dam''' is a dam located on the Maccabi River, which extends south from [[Lake Morovia]]. The dam utilizes the natural basin formed by Lake Morovia, essentially using the lake as a natural reservoir, to power the Maccabi Hydroelectric Facility. The dam contains 30 turbines producing an estimated 6,000 MW of power. The western end of the dam is connected to several locks that allow ships to pass up and down the river. The facility produces a large amount of power that is then sold to nearby communities. The dam also keeps water levels in Lake Morovia static, even with significant use due to irrigation. Currently the dam is controlled by the Republic of [[Jezeraah]]. | The '''Maccabi Dam''' is a dam located on the Maccabi River, which extends south from [[Lake Morovia]].
