In the past 100 years, China's total 72990 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity generation, the equivalent substitution 27 billion tons, about 70 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions reduction.

In the past 100 years, China's hydropower cause have achieved remarkable success: finded hydropower resources situation, the mainland found hydropower resources endowment, technical development theory of economic development and the installed capacity can be installed capacity 6.9 million kw, 5.4 million kilowatts and 4.02 million kilowatts, Hydropower development scale, new steps to reach 2 million kw in 2010, become the world's largest hydroelectric countries, Hydroelectric DAMS technique into the international advanced level, Hydroelectric equipment level increased significantly, The construction of large hydropower capacity, promote, high voltage transmission technology repeatedly new success, Hydropower development for national economic and social development has brought great comprehensive benefits.

China's main drive hydropower development experience: one is to keep pace with The Times, hydropower development always follow the national energy strategy development direction, Second is the reform, the diversification of hydropower development present development pattern, Three is to promote the scientific planning, the sustainable development of hydropower development, Four is environmental and immigration, realized the hydropower development, harmonious coexistence between man and nature, Five is vigorously promote technological innovation, promote technological progress and the acceleration of work unit equipment localization process, the safe operation of hydropower construction.
