Top 10 largest hydropower stations

Top 10 largest hydropower stations

The top 10 largest hydropower stations in the world.

This list is ranked according to the installed capacity of hydropower stations. Because it is difficult to compare each hydropower station’s specific scale, the height, length, width, and volume cannot accurately reflect the scale of the hydropower station.

The installed capacity is a good ranking criterion. Because of the larger the installed capacity, the larger the scale of the hydropower station.

On this page, the hydropower station with the largest installed capacity is updated in real-time. So this ranking changes dynamically.

If a new super hydropower station is built, it will be automatically inserted into the list to correct it.
