If the water on the back side does not reach the line, the dam will never release water and will never generate power. Once the dam hits the line at the top (the line that separates the straight part and the sloped part that slopes into a road), it will start releasing water from the bottom of the front side. While this is happening no water will come though and no power will be generated. When you first put down a dam it will attempt to store water on its back side. Too slow and you will have a barely functional dam. Too fast and you lose your height difference. If you want a constant and stable source of hydroelectric power, you will need to have a flow of water that is faster than the minimum amount of water the the dam can releases. You will also need to have a current of water for it to run. Dams function by the difference between the height of the water on one side and the other.
