China's hydro energy resources are rich in hydropower prospects

The Yangtze River is the largest river in China. The huge gaps are rich in hydropower resources.

On July 10, 2003, the first generator unit of the Three Gorges Project realized the 100-year dream of grid-connected power generation to develop the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and became a reality in New China.

Time backtracking. On October 1, 1949, under the guidance of the staff, Chairman Mao Zedong pressed the flag's ascent button to mark the five-star flag of the new regime slowly rising under the control of the electric power. Mao Zedong took a deep breath and said that he has won well!

The power industry in New China has since then begun to change from a poor, white to a world leader, represented by the Three Gorges Project. This is the largest hydropower project in the world.

800 times change

In the first half of the 20th century, the war-torn electric power industry was like an old barge. It was dragged up by the weak trackers. During the 67 years from 1882 to 1949, 1.85 million kilowatts of generators were installed in China. In 1949, the average annual electricity consumption of rural residents was only 0.05 kilowatt-hours. The power plant is dying, the equipment is incomplete, the power grid is paralyzed, and operation is difficult... The power industry in the Republic of New Zealand is facing a messy mess. At present, China’s total installed capacity has exceeded 1.1 billion kilowatts, and the installed capacity of Huaneng, Datang, and Huadian power generation companies has exceeded 100 million kilowatts. The major power turns into turns, can be described as flourishing.

Among them, hydropower installed capacity was 249 million kilowatts and wind power installed capacity was 63 million kilowatts, ranking first in the world. The installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation increased from the basic gap to 7 million kilowatts. China National Nuclear Power Corporation, China Guangdong Nuclear Power Corporation and China Power Investment Corporation have 30 sets of nuclear power generating units and 32.73 million kilowatts of nuclear power under the control of China Power Investment Corporation. The scale of construction is ranked first in the world. This is not counting new energy power generation projects such as shale gas, coalbed methane, and biomass energy.

Power supply structure is also increasingly diversified

On thermal power, Datang Power International Tocto Power Company has a total installed capacity of 5.4 million kilowatts, making it China's largest thermal power plant. After completion, the total installed capacity will reach 6,600 MW, which will become the largest thermal power generation base in Asia.

In terms of hydropower, the total installed capacity of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station reached 22.5 million kilowatts; on wind power, Jiuquan, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia represented by the wind power, and several ten million kilowatt-class wind farms known as wind power Three Gorges will be built nationwide; solar energy utilization, Qinghai Diesel The Dagu Basin Gigawatt Photovoltaic Power Station is connected to the grid to generate electricity. The annual power generation in China has reached 350 million kilowatt-hours, 800 times more than in 1949.
