|
The Steenbras Dam is a dam in the Hottentots-Holland mountains near Cape Town in South Africa. It is one of the city's water supplies. The Steenbras pumped-storage scheme was opened in 1979 to supplement the city's electricity supply during peak demand periods.
The dam is named after the steenbras, a fish endemic to South Africa.
