Construction of the Lianghekou Hydropower Station on Yalong River, the largest scale hydropower station in the Tibet Autonomous Region, started on Oct 6, 2014.

Consisting in part of the highest earth and rock dam in China at 295 meters, the station's construction faced many top technical difficulties in the world such as high altitude, high slopes and high flood discharge velocity.

The project was proof of rapid development of hydropower in the middle and upper reaches of the Yalong River.

Many Chinese central SOEs like State Development & Investment Corp., Ltd. and China Energy Engineering Group Co., Ltd. participated in the project.
