The Repulse Dam is a concrete arch dam with an earth-filled embankment across the Lower River Derwent, located in the Central Highlands region of Tasmania, Australia. Completed in 1968, the resultant reservoir, Lake Repulse, was established for the purpose of generating hydro-electric power via the Repulse Power Station, a conventional hydroelectric power station. The dam, its reservoir, and the power station are owned and operated by Hydro Tasmania.
