This hydroelectric dam is located between La Trenche generating station and La Tuque generating station. It is the fifth dam from the head of the river, among 11. Unlike the other hydroelectric plants on the river, which took the name from the rapids or falls they drowned, the Central Beaumont was named for Robert J. Beaumont, the former president of the Shawinigan Water & Power Company.
