The Wudongde Dam (simplified Chinese: 乌东德坝; traditional Chinese: 烏東德壩; pinyin: Wūdōngdé Bà) is a large hydroelectric dam on the Jinsha River, an upper stretch of Yangtze River in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces in southwest China.
It has three phases. Phase one includes four dams on the downstream of the Jinsha River. They are Wudongde Dam, Baihetan Dam, Xiluodu Dam, and Xiangjiaba Dam, with generating capacity of 10,200 MW, 16,000 MW, 13,860 MW, and 7,798 MW respectively. Phase two includes eight dams on the middle stream of the Jinsha River.
The tallest dam in China is the Jinping-I Dam at 305 m (1,001 ft), an arch dam, which is also the tallest dam in the world. The largest reservoir is created by the Three Gorges Dam, which stores 39.3 billion m 3 (31,900,000 acre feet) of water and has a surface area of 1,045 km 2 (403 sq mi). Three Gorges is also the world's largest power station.

[9] [10] After completion of the Baihetan Dam in 2022, five of the largest hydroelectric power stations in the world with sizes of at least 3,000 MW, are on the river. [11] When all the hydropower stations are in operation on the Jinsha River, they constitute the world’s largest clean energy corridor. [ 12 ]
The country's highest gravity dam is Longtan Dam at 216.2 m (709 ft), which can be found in Guangxi. [3] At 233 m (764 ft), Shuibuya Dam in Hubei is the world's tallest concrete-face rock-fill dam.

The dam is also part of the “world’s largest clean energy corridor”, where it joins other mega hydropower projects like the Three Gorges Dam, Wudongde Dam, Xiluodu Dam, and Xiangjiaba Dam, all located on the same river system, to produce and transmit renewable energy from the resource-rich western region to the cities in the east.
