Hydraulic dam: China develops its capacities in a controversial way
24/12/2020
Dams are currently being considered in China to accelerate the country’s energy transition. In particular, the state could build up to 60 gigawatts of hydroelectric capacity on part of the Brahmaputra River, known as the Yarlung Tsangbo. This project is part of the list of policy recommendations in the Chinese Communist Party’s 2021-2025 “five-year plan”.
