Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Driekloof Dam is a small section of the Sterkfontein Dam, Free State, South Africa. A section of the Sterkfontein Dam reservoir is isolated after the construction of Driekloof Dam, this small reservoir has a capacity of 35.6 million cubic metres (28,900 acre⋅ft)., together with the Kilburn Dam almost 500 metres (1,600 ft) lower, Driekloof forms part of Eskom's Drakensberg Pumped Storage Scheme and Tugela-Vaal Water Project, and provides for up to 27.6 gigawatt-hours (99 TJ) of electricity storage in the form of 275 million cubic metres (9.7×10^9 cu ft) of water. The water is pumped to Driekloof during times of low national power consumption (generally over weekends) and released back into Kilburn through four 250 megawatts (340,000 hp) turbine generators in times of high electricity demand.

Summary from Afrikaans / Afrikaans Wikipedia (afwiki)
Moet nie verwar word met Drieklowedam in China nie.

Die Driekloofdam is geleë in 'n tak van die Sterkfonteindam. Dus vorm dit ook deel van die Drakensberg-pompopgaarskema van die Tugela-Vaal-waterprojek.
