Three Gorges project reduces 200 mln tonnes of greenhouse gas emission
Clipped to the Drawing Board by Barot Casha  
Did you know trivia - (YICHANG, Hubei Province) -- Three Gorges Project, the world's biggest hydroelectric plant, has helped China reduce emitting 200 million tonnes of carbon dioxide as of Friday.
    The power plant has generated 223 billion kwh of electricity since its first generating units began operation in 2003, also avoiding the emission of 2.29 million tonnes of sulphur dioxide, according to the China Three Gorges Project Corporation.
    Chinese coal-fired power plants would have burned about 90 million tonnes of coal to produce the same amount of electricity, the developer and operator of the dam project said.
    The company said improved navigation capacity along the dam area also contributed to reduction in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission.
