The Dixon Diversion Project is an expansion of the largest hydroelectric facility in Alaska, the AEA-owned Bradley Lake Hydroelectric Project on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. The Dixon Diversion will redirect water from the Dixon Glacier to the reservoir for the Bradley Lake power generation facility, thereby increasing energy output and providing significant renewable energy benefits to the Railbelt transmission system.
