After many years of delays, the first generator was commissioned in April 2018 and the entire project was completed in August 2018 when the fourth and last unit was synchronized with the national grid on 13 August and attained its maximum generation capacity of 969 MW on 14 August 2018. It will generate 5,150 GWh (gigawatt hour) per year at the levelised tariff of Rs 13.50 per unit for 30 years. 61: 588:(reservoir) with a 8,000,000 m (6,486 acre⋅ft) capacity of which 2,800,000 m (2,270 acre⋅ft) is peak storage. The dam diverts up to 280 m/s (9,888 cu ft/s) of the Neelum southeast into a 28.5 km (18 mi) long head-race tunnel, the first 15.1 km (9 mi) of the head-race is two tunnels which later meet into one. The tunnel passes 380 m (1,247 ft) below the Jhelum River and through its bend. At the terminus of the tunnel, the water reaches the 656:
about Rs37bn in energy loss during repairs, maintenance, and testing over the following 20 months. WAPDA has filed about Rs43bn insurance claims for the losses. On April 3, 2024, electricity generation from the Neelum-Jhelum Hydel Power Station was restricted to 530 MW due to decrease in head race tunnel pressure. On May 3, 2024, electricity generation from the Neelum-Jhelum Hydel Power Station was stopped for the physical inspection of the head race tunnel to locate and fix the problem.
