Project description

The Tadi 16 MW Hydropower Project in Zhejiang Province developed by Quzhou Tadi Hydro Complex Development Co., Ltd is sited on the Qujiang River, downstream from the Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province. The primary purpose of the Project is to utilize the water resources of the Qujiang River to generate clean electricity to deliver to East China Power Grid (ECPG) without CO2 emissions.
Furthermore, the Project can promote the capability of shipping, water supply and irrigation for local area.

The Project is a newly-built hydropower project with the total installed capacity of 16 MW. The increased flooded land area resulting from the Project is 1,298,408 m2, and the power density is 12.3 W/m2. It is estimated that the electricity supplied to the grid will be 57.842 GWh annually.

The Project activity will achieve greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions by avoiding CO2 emissions from the business-as-usual scenario, electricity generated by those fossil fuel-fired power plants connected into ECPG. The estimated emission reductions are 53,082 tCO2e per year.
