HPP “Gradec” is predicted to be constructed in the bed of river Vardar, downstream of Udiovo village (30.4 km from the Macedonia-Greek border) in order to be used energy potential of Vardar river at location of Udovo village to Demir Kapija with one additional energy level.

Regarding adopted disposition of HPP “Gradec” overflow gravity dam and powerhouse building are situated nearby in middle of Vardar River valley and sideways towards banks are planned concrete gravity parts of dam.  This solution is adopted due to the fact that enables construction of overflow gravity dam and  powerhouse building in I phase almost in dry and fastest start at the beginning of construction simultaneously with preparation of sheet piling from I phase and simultaneously with dislocation of railway at that crossroad.
