The Sundsfjord Hydroelectric Power Station (Norwegian: Sundsfjord kraftverk or Sundsfjord kraftstasjon)[1] is a hydroelectric power station in Gildeskål Municipality in Nordland county, Norway.[2][3] Part of the plant's catchment area also lies in Beiarn Municipality.[2]

The plant utilizes a drop of 317 meters (1,040 ft),[1] using three lakes as reservoirs: Sokumvatnet (Lule Sami: Såhkamjávrre)[4] and Langvatnet (Lule Sami: Gåddumjávrre),[5] both regulated between an elevation of 331 m (1,086 ft) and 299 m (981 ft), and Arstaddalsdammen, which is regulated between an elevation of 333 m (1,093 ft) and 299 m (981 ft). The Forså Hydroelectric Power Station supplies water to Sokumvatnet and the Langvann Hydroelectric Power Station supplies water to Langvatnet.

The plant has three 34-megawatt (46,000 hp) Francis turbines with an installed capacity of 102 megawatts (137,000 hp) and an average annual production of about 535 gigawatt-hours (1,930 TJ).[1] Its catchment area is 168 square kilometers (65 sq mi).[1] The plant was originally built by Norsk Hydro and Gildeskål Kraftlag to supply industry at Glomfjord and is now owned by Salten Kraftsamband.[2] It came into operation in 1963.[1][2]
