The Gianelli Power Plant, also known as the San Luis Power Plant, is a hydro-electric power plant that is at the base of the San Luis Dam in California. Due to the droughts in California, the plant has had a drastically reduced electricity output since the water levels in the reservoir have been kept lower than normal.
