The Långed hydro power plant is located on the river Upperudsälven in Dals Långed, Bengtsfors municipality.
The power plant was built between 1908 and 1911, and was bought by Vattenfall in 1984. A reconstruction of the power plant was completed in 2016, during which new turbines and generators were installed.
