YANGTZE RIVER,
STARTED IN DEC 14, 1994.
OPENED IN TEAR 2008.
LENGTH & HIGHT OF DAM;-
OVERALL LENGTH :- 2.335 KM
HEIGHT :- 181 M (594FT))
ABOUT THREE GORGES DAM
o Its has been the worlds largest largest power station in terms of installed capacity
22,500mw.
o It consist of 32 main turbines.
o The cost of the construction was 22.5 billion USD.
o The dam reduces the coal consumption by 31 million tonnes/year, avoiding 100 million
tonnes of green house gas emission.
o In 2010 nasa scientists calculated that shift of water mass stored by the dam would
increases the length of the earth increases 0.8 inches flate on the poles.
o And also it redues the speed of earth of 0.006 micro seconds every day.
