For the past 2 decades, China has been in the midst of
. . . an unprecedented dam-building boom, developing over
. . . 300 gigawatts (GW) of hydropower.

But coal-fuelled development in many of its cities,
. . . has left them choking from air pollution, and
. . . lent urgency to alternatives such as:
. . . . . . Solar,
. . . . . . Wind,
. . . . . . Nuclear, and
. . . . . . Hydropower.

China has the world’s largest potential hydropower resource, and
. . . could develop around
. . . 540 GW, as part of efforts to decarbonise the country’s economy.
