Glenbawn Power Station was built in 1995 within the Glenbawn Dam wall structure on the Hunter River about 15 kilometres south-east of Scone in New South Wales and has a maximum generation capacity of 5.5 MW. Glenbawn power station typically generates power using summer irrigation and flood mitigation flows.

Glenbawn Dam's storage capacity is approximately 750 GL with only small demands from other uses, enabling water releases for the power station on a regular basis.
