Understand the reason for the high water flow at the Iguaçu Falls
The river bed therefore has six hydroelectric power plants. According to Copel, all the falls of the Iguaçu Falls have operated at maximum energy generation capacity. The phenomenon has been happening since May 31, 2022, due to the rains recorded along the Iguaçu watershed.
Consequently, the excess water, still according to the company, has been released by the spillway in each of the six reservoirs, a fact that also contributed to the increase in the flow of water in the falls.
The Iguaçu River, which bathes the place and is where the falls of the falls culminate, is born in the region of Curitiba. It then crosses the state and flows into Foz do Iguaçu, in the region where the city borders Argentina and Paraguay.
