Harsprånget is a hydroelectric power station located on the Lule River in northern Sweden just downstream of Porjus. With an effect at 977 MW it’s the largest hydroelectric power station in Sweden and also the third largest in the nordic countries. The name means Hare run in Swedish. This was also the name of the mighty rapids there and the name was related to the sharp turns in the rapids a little similar to the ones a hare does when fleeing. Normal year production is around 2131 GWh.
