CTOnews.com learned that Baihetan Hydropower Station is located in the lower reaches of the Jinsha River at the junction of Ningnan County in Sichuan Province and Qiaojia County in Yunnan Province. A total of 16 million kilowatt hydroelectric generating units independently developed in China and with the largest unit capacity in the world have been installed in the power station, with a total installed capacity of 16 million kilowatts. The first batch of units will be put into operation on June 28, 2021, and all of them will be put into operation on December 20, 2022.

In addition, China has comprehensively built the world's largest clean energy corridor on the Yangtze River. the six giant cascade hydropower stations (Wudongde, Baihetan, Xiluodu, Xiangjiaba, three Gorges and Gezhouba) built and operated by the three Gorges Group in the Yangtze River have installed 110hydropower units, with a total installed capacity of 71.695 million kilowatts and an average annual generating capacity of 300 billion kilowatt hours, forming the world's largest clean energy corridor spanning 1800 kilometers. It is of great significance to ensure flood control, power generation, shipping, water resources utilization and ecological security in the Yangtze River basin.
