Three Gorges Dam
The Three Gorges Dam is a hydroelectric river dam that spans the Yangtze River (Chinese: 扬/洋子; pinyin: Yángzǐ) in Sandouping, Yichang, Hubei, China. It is the largest hydroelectric power station in the world. Except for a planned ship lift, all the original plan of the project was completed on October 30, 2008, when the 26th generator was brought to commercial operation.[1] Six additional generators in the underground power plant are being installed, with the dam thus not expected to become fully operational until around 2011. The total electric generating capacity of the dam will reach 22,500 MW.[2]
The dam controls flooding, enhances navigation, and provides a vast amount of clean electricity. However, it has also flooded archaeological and cultural sites, displaced some 1.24 million people, and is causing dramatic ecological changes. The decision to build the dam has been deeply controversial.[3]
