The Goldisthal upper basin is the upper basin of the Goldisthal pumped storage power plant . It was put into operation by Vattenfall Europe AG in August 2002 and is located near Goldisthal near Neuhaus am Rennweg in Thuringia on the Großer Farmdenkopf . With its net capacity of around 12 million m³, it can supply the pumped storage plant with water for eight hours when all four turbines are operating at full load.
The circular dam of the basin, for which the summit of the mountain was removed and used as building material, is a rock embankment dam . The average height of the dam is 40 meters, but the dump height varies between 11 and 75 meters depending on the terrain. A 50 meter high intake structure is integrated into the ring dam. It is founded in the rock on phycode schist .
Among the dams of the PSW Goldisthal continue to include the Goldisthal sub-basin and its pre-dam Gräftiegelsperre .
