The Baihetan hydropower plant is equipped with sixteen1-gigawatt turbines, making it the second largest hydropower generator in China and the world, behind only the Three Gorges Project, also on the Yangtze river. Baihetan is one of six giant hydropower stations along the Yangtze river, China’s longest. The Three Gorges Corporation, the project’s developer, has described the 289-metre dam and its associated infrastructure as one of the country’s biggest and most challenging engineering projects.
