🌐 Three Gorges Dam
One of the world's largest engineering projects, and the largest hydroelectric dam in mankind's history.
Located on the Yangtze River, near Yichang, Hubei Province, China, the dam is the global contribution of the Three Gorges Dam.
⚡. Huge energy.
• Installed power generation of 22,500 MW
• About 20 times more than the US Hoover Dam
• Reduces coal consumption and reduces carbon emissions by millions of tons a year.
🏞 Super Project Size
• Length of more than 2.3 kilometers
• 185 meters high (approximately 60 floors)
• Over 28 million cubic meters of concrete are used.
🚢 controls water, electricity and transportation.
• Prevent flooding of the Yangtze River basin, which used to kill hundreds of thousands of people.
• Enable large merchant ships to reach Chongqing
• It has the largest "boat lift" in the world.
🌍 Planetary impact.
Over 40 billion tons of water storage mass, according to NASA.
This causes the mass distribution of the Earth to change.
So that the length of 1 day increases by about 0.06 microseconds.
⚠️ side to exchange.
• More than 1.3-1.4 million people have to be evacuated.
• Ecosystems change. Some aquatic species are extinct.
• Sediment, landslides and earthquakes concerns
✨ the Three Cliffs Dam is a symbol of human engineering.
It is both a flood shield and the largest clean power plant in the world.
