| Abstract: | Over the past decades, the hydropower construction in China developed rapidly, many high dams and huge reservoirs have been constructed, such as Three Gorges Project, and the many breakthroughs in hydropower technology were achieved. Combing with the engineering practices, we present the innovative achievements in the aspects of dam construction technology, hydroelectric station, navigation structure etc. According to the current status, the new challenges in domestic hydropower construction are pointed out, and future innovation directions of hydropower technology are put forward in terms of engineering safety, technologies, environment protection and reservoir resettlement. |
