The Chaira Pumped Storage Hydro Power Plant (Chaira PSHPP) was built in the Rila mountain range, about Script error: No such module "convert". southeast of Bulgaria's capital city, Sofia. Part of the major Belmeken–Sestrimo–Chaira Hydropower Cascade, Chaira has generating capacity of Script error: No such module "convert". and a pumping capacity of Script error: No such module "convert".. The power plant is equipped with four reversible Francis pump-turbines, each rated at Script error: No such module "convert". in the generating mode, and Script error: No such module "convert". in pumping mode. Units 1 and 2 have been in operation since 1995, and at that time Chaira was the largest pumped-storage plant in southeast Europe with the highest head in the world for a single-stage pump turbine (Script error: No such module "convert". generating and Script error: No such module "convert". pumping). Units 3 and 4 came online in 1999. The pump-turbines and motor-generators were supplied by Toshiba, and three of them were manufactured under Japanese supervision in Bulgaria. The upper basin for Chaira is formed by the Belmeken Dam which connects to the pumped storage plant by two headrace tunnels with a diameter of Script error: No such module "convert". and two penstocks with diameter Script error: No such module "convert"., reducing to Script error: No such module "convert"..[1] Outflow from the Belmeken reservoir supplies the Sestrimo Hydro Power Plant
