Sir Adam Beck Power Generating Station

Since 1958, Sir Adam Beck 2 Generating Station has captured water's potential energy in one of Ontario's largest hydroelectric facilities. It's a wonderful example of a natural, non-polluting and reliable power source that has worked in harmony with the beauty of Niagara for over 4 decades.

There is a fully guided 40 minute tour, including 3 observation areas, and 11 minute video.
