This old hydroelectric power plant was built with the aim of supplying power to a cement factory located very close to there and later extended the electric service to small towns near the place such as Copetonas and Oriente.

In the year 1919 after a torrential rain where many millimeters of water fell for a very short time, causing a great great flood of the river, flooding and breaking the facilities and ruining the machinery. For this reason, two turbines had to be replaced and part of the dam that was destroyed by this natural phenomenon was repaired.

After this fact, the dam started operating again and served until the mid-1980s.

Después de este hecho la represa comenzó a funcionar nuevamente y prestó servicios hasta mediados de los años `80.
