TVA Raccoon Mountain Visitor Center Reopens Following Maintenance Work

  • Friday, June 6, 2025
The TVA’s Raccoon Mountain visitor center will reopen on Saturday, after being closed since early July 2024 as crews performed a scheduled dewatering and maintenance outage at the power plant to ensure that facility continues to provide reliable and resilient energy for years to come.
 
The Raccoon Mountain visitor center sees approximately 21,000 visitors in a typical year and is open every day except federal holidays. The center is staffed by members of Bicentennial Volunteers, Inc.
— TVA retirees who volunteer to educate people about Raccoon Mountain and TVA history, the unique pumped storage facility on site and the power generating facilities across the seven states we serve.
 
To celebrate with TVA, children from the Boys and Girls Club of Chattanooga will be on a field trip Friday, June 13 and will learn from BVI volunteers about how the plants and people at TVA work to keep the lights on.
 
There is a new website for TVA dam visitor centers at tva.com/visit. It allows people to take virtual visits to TVA dams without leaving their homes or schools.
