China is set to embark on an ambitious project to construct the world’s largest hydropower dam on the Yarlung Zangbo River, located on the eastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau. This colossal undertaking aims to produce an unprecedented 300 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, significantly surpassing the capacity of the renowned Three Gorges Dam.
