Sultan Mahmud Hydro Electric Power Station
The history of construction of the dam spanned for 15 years, which is from the planning stage to the completion of the dam. Actually it was first identified in 1961 but it proved uneconomic due to the small demand and the high cost of production. Early 1970’s the government revived the study and further site investigations was proceeded.
Even though the original survey for the project was in1972 the construction was started in 1978 and was completed in 1985. In 1987 the whole project was officially opened by his Royal Highness The Sultan of Terengganu Darul Iman and was named after the baginda Sultan "Sultan Mahmud Hydro Electric Power Station".
The main project site is located at Kuala Kenyir (about 55km from Kuala Terengganu). The main features of Kenyir Hydro Electric Project are a rock fill dam with 400 megawatts of generating plant. During the construction period, two temporary diversion tunnels were built for the purpose of diverting the rivers.
The normal capacity of the lake store is 13.6 billion cubic metres of water. Whereas the deepest point is 145 metres deep. This power station complex building can produce 100 MW (megawatts) power units which can be supplied through out Malaysia. Normally the daily operation operates at a continuous power output of 165 MW and its average annual output is 1600 GWh (Giga watt hours).

Ikan Arapaima Gigas!
Ganjaran RM10,000 Tangkap Ikan Arapaima Di Tasik Kenyir
SETIU, 2 Julai (Bernama) — Kerajaan Negeri Terengganu menawarkan ganjaran RM10,000 kepada sesiapa yang berjaya menangkap ikan Arapaima Gigas atau ikan naga di Tasik Kenyir.
Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Said berkata tempoh kebenaran menangkap ikan itu bermula dari sekarang sehingga 15 Ogos ini di seluruh kawasan tasik kecuali di kawasan yang telah diwartakan sebagai Taman Negara dan Santuari Kelah.
Ikan itu yang ditangkap hidup-hidup akan ditempatkan di Mini Zoo dan Taman Rekreasi di Bukit Takal, Kemaman sebagai tarikan kepada pengunjung, katanya kepada pemberita di sini Khamis.
Katanya kaedah menangkap ikan Arapaima Gigas terhad kepada penggunaan joran dan kelili, dan setiap peserta mesti mengambil permit serta mematuhi semua undang-undang kecil berkaitan dengan aktiviti memancing di Tasik Kenyir.
Segala urusan memancing termasuk menyewa bot adalah di bawah tanggungan sendiri dan setiap peserta diwajibkan mendaftar dengan Lembaga Kemajuan Terengganu Tengah (Ketengah) bagi tujuan keselamatan, katanya.
Ahmad berkata walaupun Arapaima Gigas merupakan spesies ikan yang besar, ia tidak menyerang manusia, tetapi menjadikan ikan-ikan lain di dalam tasik sebagai makanan.
“Kita khuatir dengan adanya spesies ikan yang berasal dari Sungai Amazon ini, ikan-ikan lain akan kepupusan. Kita juga bimbang ikan ini akan membiak di Tasik Kenyir yang sedang kita bangunkan sebagai destinasi pelancongan perdana di Terengganu.
“Kita tidak tahu berapa jumlah sebenarnya ikan ini di dalam Tasik Kenyir tetapi kita perlu pastikan tiada ikan pemangsa di dalam tasik buatan manusia itu. Ikan toman juga adalah pemangsa tetapi ia tidak akan membesar seperti Arapaima Gigas,” katanya.
Beliau berkata ikan Arapaima Gigas boleh membesar sehingga 4.5 meter panjang dan mencapai berat sehingga melebihi 200 kilogram.
Menurutnya, di habitat asalnya di Sungai Amazon, ikan itu diburu menggunakan lembing dan rakyat tempatan menggemari ikan itu dengan menjadikannya makanan eksotik.
