On July 1, the theme activity of the Three Gorges Group "Mission of the Great Power Age" was held at the Three Gorges Dam. Considering flood control, more storage capacity should be reserved during the flood season, but the low water level is not conducive to power generation. How does the Three Gorges Project balance the relationship between flood control and power generation?
Xing Long, a senior engineer of the Three Gorges Group Watershed Hub Management Center, said that the dispatching principle of the Three Gorges Project is that Xingli dispatching is subject to flood control dispatching. Flood control is the primary task of the Three Gorges Project, and power generation dispatching is subject to flood dispatching.
The Three Gorges Project is a comprehensive water conservancy and hydropower project. The Three Gorges Reservoir Dispatch is a multi-objective comprehensive dispatch. Flood control and disaster reduction are the primary tasks of the Three Gorges Project. It also takes into account the comprehensive utilization functions of power generation, navigation, and water resource utilization. It can be seen that the power generation of the Three Gorges Project cannot be ignored, and power generation can provide a large amount of clean energy for the whole country.
