The Dam is not small! The world's first arch dam - Xiaowan Hydropower Station!

Xiaowan Hydropower Station, in Wuliang Mountain on the Lancang River in China, is a world-renowned project housing the tallest arch dam - 100m higher than the Three Gorges Dam. Deemed the "most difficult" hydropower station, it was constructed amidst strong water pressure and complex geology. Possessing 4.2 million kilowatts installed capacity, Xiaowan generates electricity while facilitating downstream shipping and irrigation. Its environmental commitment and efficient operation model have set new standards in hydropower, all while transforming local economies and lifting living conditions.

China has many "green energy" projects including solar farms in desert areas the area of Singapore; Fourth Generation Nuclear power which uses gas cooling and not water cooling; the first operational Thorium molten salt reactor; Hydro power generated energy; Wind farms in windy areas to name some.
