Completed in 2009, the primary purpose of the dam is to support its 300 MW power station.

The Görmeli Ottoman bridge from 1290 (also called Ala Köprü) was submerged as a result of the completion of the Ermenek Dam.

The Consortium was also responsible for provision of full foreign financing for the project, under terms agreeable to the Turkish Treasury.
