More information:

This was the first major hydroelectric project in Britain, and was built by the British Aluminium Company Ltd to supply power to its smelters at Kinlochleven and later Fort William. The scheme continues to generate electricity, though the Kinlochleven smelter has closed, and the power station retains some of its original machinery
