The Caruachi Dam is a water reservoir located more than 60 kilometers downstream of the Guri Reservoir, and 25 kilometers upstream of the Macagua Reservoir in Venezuela.
It was inaugurated in 2006, and covers an area of 250 km².
It provides 12% of the national electricity demand.
It is also known as the Francisco de Miranda Hydroelectric Power Plant.

CVG Edelca, in view of the high environmental impact caused by the construction of the third hydroelectric dam in the Caroní, worked together with the Ministry of the Environment to rescue the flora, fauna and valuable archeological treasures found in the region, which are now permanently exhibited in the Caroní Ecomuseum.

The 12 generators in the engine room of the Caruachi Dam are covered with reproductions of baskets of the Yekuana ethnic group.
Each turbine represents the myths of the tribe covering a space of 16 meters in diameter to cover the entire turbine.
While the walls display large reproductions of 13 indigenous petroglyphs from different regions of Guyana and Venezuela.
