Hydroelectricity, or hydroelectric power, is electricity generated from hydropower (water power). Hydropower supplies 15% of the world's electricity , almost 4,210 TWh in 2023, [ 1 ] which is more than all other renewable sources combined and also more than nuclear power . [ 2 ]
As this exceeded the demand of northern Vietnam, a 1,487 km north–south high-voltage line had to be constructed. [9] By 2016 the dam accounted for 6% of Vietnam's total electricity output. Each year approximately 10 billion kWh of electricity is generated by the dam, providing around half of the government revenue of Hòa Bình Province . [ 8 ]
The largest hydroelectric power station is the Three Gorges Dam in China, rated at 22,500 MW in total installed capacity. After passing on 7 December 2007 the 14,000 MW mark of the Itaipu Dam , the facility was ranked as the largest power-generating facility ever built.
The following page lists all pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations that are larger than 1,000 MW in installed generating capacity, which are currently operational or under construction. Those power stations that are smaller than 1,000 MW , and those that are decommissioned or only at a planning/proposal stage may be found in regional ...
