    Yunnan Electrical Energy

    Yunn is rich in natural resoures, with the six water systems contributing a lot to Yunnan Electrical Energy development.

    Introduction of Yunnan Electric Power

    Yunnan has sufficient rainfall and many rivers and lakes. The annual water flow originating in the province is 200 cubic kilometres, three times that of the Yellow River. The rivers flowing into the province from outside add 160 cubic kilometres, which means there are more than ten thousand cubic metres of water for each person in the province. This is four times the average in the country. The rich water resources offer abundant hydro-energy. China is constructing a series of dams on the Mekong to develop it as a waterway and source of power; the first was completed at Manwan in 1993.

    Yunnan is also rich in green energy resources. For instance, the province has a reserve of 104 million kilowatts of hydropower, with more than 62 million kilowatts of installed capacity, the second biggest in the country. It is also rich in other renewable energy such as wind power and biomass.

    The production of electric power is also an important component of the provincial economy. Power is generated by both thermal and, increasingly, hydroelectric plants. Two major hydropower stations were completed on the Mekong (Lancang) River since the late 1990s, at Manwan and Dachaoshan. Construction began on a third dam on the river, at Xiaowan, in 2002. Yunnan produces a surplus of electricity, which is exported to neighbouring provinces.
