The Au Train hydroelectric project is located on the Au Train River in Alger County, Michigan upstream of Au Train Lake. The dam was originally built in 1910, and embankment dams were built in 1930. At some point, it was owned by the Upper Peninsula Power Company (UPPCO). UP Hydro, LLC (part of Renewable World Energies, LLC) purchased the dam from UPPCO in July 2010.
