One of the oldest hydro power stations is Porjus in the Lule river. It has turned into a museum and research facility so you can go on  a guided tour and visit the place. You go 50 meters under ground and see the generators and the old control rooms. Vattenfall is producing so much eneergy from these type of power plants that it is enough to cover all the lighting needs of Sweden. Funny thing is that they actually stop the plant at night, because not a lot of engergy is needed then.
