Best Answer

10% of China's energy. The main generators weigh about 6,000 tonnes each and are designed to produce more than 700 MW of power.

It will have 32 generators: 30 main generators, each with a capacity of 700 MW, and two plant power generators, each with capacity of 50 MW. Among those 32 main generators, 14 are installed in the north side of the dam, 12 in the south side, and the remaining six in the underground power plant in the mountain south of the dam. The expected annual electricity generation will be over 100 TWh, 18% more than the originally predicted 84.7 TWh, resulting from the six generators added in 2002.
