  • ГЕС Меттур — гідроелектростанція на півдні Індії у штаті Тамілнад. Знаходячись між ГЕС Sivasamudram (вище по течії у штаті Карнатака) та ГЕС Меттур-Нижня I, входить до складу каскаду на річці Кавері, яка кількома рукавами впадає у Бенгальську затоку за півсотні кілометрів на південь від Пудучеррі. У 1966-му комплекс доповнили другим машинним залом, винесеним за 0,5 км нижче від греблі. Його обладнали чотирма турбінами типу Каплан потужністю по 50 МВт, які при напорі від 24,4 до 48,8 метра (номінальний напір 47 метрів) забезпечують виробництво 451 млн кВт·год електроенергії на рік.
