Title: The Yangtze River Water Resources, Yangtze River Water System

The Yangtze River is China's longest river after the Nile and the length of the Amazon, into the sea after the Amazon and the Congo River, ranking third in the world. More upstream flows through mountains and canyons and steep slope flow of acute and drop 5360 meters. Ganzhi water energy resources reserves of about 268 million kilowatts, which is possible to develop 197 million kilowatts, the annual power generation of about one trillion kwh. To 1990 only, the whole basin has been built, installed capacity of hydropower stations under construction for more than a total of 11.7 million kilowatts, of which Gezhouba hydropower installed capacity of 2.715 million kilowatts, is China's largest hydropower station. Planning of the Three Gorges hydropower installed capacity of 17.68 million kilowatts. The other for the development of larger hydroelectric power station Jinsha River Xiangjiaba (4.6 million kilowatts), Yalong Jinping (3 million kilowatts), Dadu River Falls ditch (2.8 million kilowatts), etc..
