Interesting it's as specialized as it is but many dams pump water up the reservoir during low consumption times to store for periods where power is needed.
A soon as I started typing I realised it's probably not too exciting. I think it's always had that mythic element growing up near it of imagining the amount of work needed for lots of cups of tea to be made at the same time.
Don't sweat it, still a cool little thing.
