Three Gorges hydropower plant - the largest hydroelectric power station in the world (38 photos)
Earlier in the USSR was megalomania. Now there is no Soviet Union. But there is China. And now there are building all the BIGGEST!
HPP construction began in 1992, construction completion scheduled for 2010. The composition of hydroelectric facilities:
gravity concrete dam length 2,345 m and a height of 181 m;
left-bank dam powerhouse with 14 hydraulic units;
right-bank dam powerhouse with 12 hydraulic units;
right-bank underground power house with 6 hydraulic units;
the twin five-step ship lock;
ship lift. The idea of the construction of hydropower plants in the area of the Three Gorges on the Yangtze dates back to the 1920s. However, the magnitude of the project long delayed its implementation. Chronicle of construction:
1992 - the beginning of work on the construction of hydroelectric
May 14, 1994 - the beginning of construction of the dam
1997 - laying the first concrete
November 8, 1997 - overlapping Yangtze
2003 - launch of the first hydraulic unit
September 2005 - commissioning of the left of the power house. Power station reached 9800 MW.
May 20, 2006 - The construction of the dam
2007-2008 - the planned date of commissioning of the right dam power house. Power station will reach 18,200 MW in the development of 84, 7 billion kWh
2010 - Planned date of commissioning the right bank of the underground power house. Completion of construction.
Part of the photo - a place downstream - the city dismantled on material for the dam (2002), as this place is still flood.
Chronicle of the Three Gorges construction ("Three Gorges»)
April 3, 1992 during the fifth session of the National People's Congress of the 7th convocation adopted the "Resolution on the construction of the Three Gorges Project on the Yangtze River."
December 14, 1994 in the area of the Three Gorges Dam was held opening ceremony of the construction of the Three Gorges, attracts the attention of the whole world.
January 5, 1995 officially started construction works on the dam, which marked the preparations for the massive Three Gorges construction of the facility.
April 18, 1995 began the first phase of construction of hydropower plants on the left bank of the dam.
April 24, 1995 officially launched the first phase of construction of a temporary ship lock and ship lift at the Three Gorges hydraulic facilities.
December 24, 1995, the second phase of construction of temporary ship lock and ship lift at the Three Gorges hydraulic facilities.
April 19, 1996 ahead of schedule began pouring the concrete foundation of the dam guide the third stage in the construction of the Three Gorges.
October 6, 1997 officially opened on shipping traffic diversion canals.
November 8, 1997 was successfully completed damming of the Yangtze River in the project.
December 11, 1997 began pouring the first cubic meter of concrete dam Three Gorges.
May 1, 1998 performed the opening of the shipping traffic through the temporary ship lock in the Three Gorges.
January 25, 1999 began assembling a metal reinforcement Three Gorges dam.
November 17, 1999 completed the installation and commissioning of the concrete equipment.
September 15, 2000 was carried out construction of 22 spillway gates on the dam for water discharge.
By 31 December 2001, the project had been carried out for pouring concrete in the amount of 4, 0.638 billion. Cubic meters. In general, for 3 years was broken the world record for efficiency of work on pouring concrete.
May 1, 2002 was filmed guide dam and filled with water in the upper reaches of the Three Gorges construction. July 1 - in the lower reaches of the Three Gorges of the object.
September 27, 2002 the water level in the area A in the second compartment on the left bank of the Three Gorges dam reached a height of 185 meters.
November 6, 2002 was successfully completed overlapping water flumes under construction.
November 7, 2002, construction began at the site and the third turn. It has also started construction of the main subject of the third stage.
December 16, 2002 and began pouring concrete for the rolling guide dam construction of the third stage.
July 10, 2003 for electrical installation №2 and №5 on the left bank of the Three Gorges is plugged in and started to generate electricity for 20 days ahead of schedule.
July 8 2004 ship lock of the fifth category in two directions Three Gorges was certified and opened to traffic through the courts.
September 16, 2005 №9 unit on the left bank of the Three Gorges is plugged in and started to generate electricity, early put into operation 14 units with a capacity of 700,000 kw ...
October 2, 2005 of outlets to remove the dam Three Gorges in force for more than two years, were closed.
May 20, 2006 fully completed the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the projected height reached the mark of 185 meters.
