Insane is the right word here. Authoritarian regimes like china love these kind of short-lived mega projects for propaganda reasons instead of building a long-lasting infrastructure that serves the actual needs of the people.

Do you do any research on this and what are your degrees in? I also think that the presentation of this video is very condescending, like your talking to 4 yr olds.
Great video, but a little note for your script writers, if I may: A common mistake is saying something like: "it could power the UK for a year", because it could also power it for five years. Or five minutes. It's not about time, it's about power output. So the correct way to say it would be "it could power a country the size of the UK". Thanks.
@@yaya-nw4ic No, output (for example in gigawatts, GW) measures the rate of power generation at any given moment. GWh (gigawatt-hours) measures the amount of energy produced or consumed over time. A 1 GW power plant running continuously for 1 hour generates 1 GWh of energy.
What do you mean? I am in construction, when I started 20 yrs ago American companies were the global leaders doing projects everywhere... in 2024 the top 20 contractors are ALL chinese companies. Look it up, it is published. There is no question China is the global leader in construction, media and technology manufacturing. As a construction project manager we do interview Chinese engineers... also we apply to work for Chinese firms.
My jaw dropped when it was revealed they were thinking about a 40 mile tunnel under a mountain to do this. I never knew about this grand canyon, but now I desire to go visit.
Many of reports regards to this project fail to notice that monsoons and the rainfall / run off they bring happens downstream of China's territory at a much lower altitude.
They first of all need European engineering knowledge and workers on site because China can build nothing on its own(nothing to coy here-you need experts). As the big construction companies have mostly contracts with Tata Steel they will think twice before building a dam for a Dictatorship that will affect India directly.
@@drrichardwiesenhuber they used western engineers since the 1990s, they then learned so much from them. they then used their knowledge to advance in more drastic dammmms. now they don't rely on the west thanks to the western engineers in the 1990s and 2000s that taught them the how-to build these structures,
No matter what or when their dam directly affects access to water for their neighbors and geopolitical rivals? Almost every major river in the US empties into the ocean. We're not restricting water flows to Mexico.
@@McP1mpin As I said; "ChinaBad" propagandists will always find something bad to say. In fact, dams assure a continuous normal flow of water river downwards, through the whole year, preventing floods and drought. That was the first reason dams have ever been build.

Use some common sense: hydropower plants don't consume water. The same amount of water continues to flow into India. So, why imply that China is taking advantage of India? This is different from the Colorado River, which has been diverted so extensively that it runs dry before reaching Mexico.
Hydropower plants allow you to stop and flood the river whenever you want. China will indeed stop the river to force its neighbors to accept whatever he wants.
Upstream dams control the rate of flow of water. There have been many instances when upstream dams dump a lot of water during heavy rain which further worsens the flood downstream. Conversely, during drought they hold on to water more than the regular flow worsening the drought at downstream regions.
Use some physics, Doc: Forcing water through tunnels and spinning turbines removes a shitload of energy from the inertial mass. (Duh, that's where the electricity comes from.) Sucking out energy attenuates the velocity at which water will continue downstream, directly affecting downstream users. Pretty obvious you don't know much about fluid dynamics or energy production. My opinion: Your "common sense" sounds more like chinese propaganda, since you insist on mentioning a river on the other side of the planet in the US, rather than simply stating your "common sense" point, and ending it then and there. Fifty Cent Army? Pay fifty cents and see what quality army you end up with. chinese quality. Even they call it tofu dreg.
This dam idea is actually really really smart, by using a tunnel and huge elevation difference, there's no need to build a huge concrete dam holding back a large water body. A portion of the water can simply be diverted into the pipe tunnels to the turbines or letting the water run its old course during maintenance/down time.
It's not really smart though. The Himalayas is being created by the Indian tectonic plate crashing into the Asian tectonic plate. That's why the mountains are so big and so young. The whole area is highly geologically unstable.
@@DrewWithington Not sure what young means... But every year billions of liters of water passes through the gorges flowing out to the sea and the potential energy not harnessed. The Chinese are willing to have a go at it and make cleaner energy without a large water pool. How is this a bad idea?
@@marilynlicht5376 So what? Worst case is the tunnel and turbine room gets destroyed and investments lost, river flows back in its original course. Why is this a concern to you?

This is Pelton wheel territory for high head application. As such the size of the power unit will not be large. Also for safety a Pelton turbine needs a bypass open to atmosphere so a big hole inside the mountain will not do or very challenging.
@@gunsumwong3948 Pretty much, only way to get an impulse type working would be to increase the flow rate and decrease the head, by applying more turbines in series, but I haven't made the math on this, maybe I will, once for breakfast.

These specific mountains are uplifting at a rate of one meter per century. Out if everything, I'd imagine that'd pose the great problems and risk, especially for building and maintaining a 40 km long tunnel.
I know it is sort of out of bounce from your usual research, but I think a video on the 10 most technologically advanced countries would be a major hit 😮.
Catastrophe struck Sikkim on October 4 last year when Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) devastated the region. The disaster wiped out 80% of Sikkim’s electricity generation capacity, including a significant 1200 MW hydropower plant ( Tiny Dam as mentioned 16:49 ). Currently, no hydropower projects along the Teesta River in Sikkim are operational, allowing the river to flow freely. Along with the water, a significant amount of materials has also been carried downstream. We hope this leads to a bountiful harvest for Bangladeshi farmers, who may benefit from the increased water flow and nutrient-rich sediment.
A tunnel setup would be exceptionally good for their downstream neighbors.Because its not holding any water back,normal flow is preserved. Electricity output would be somewhat variable over the year but i still think its the right move.Other powerplants can level those highs and lows. The only real question is whether the tunnel is cost effective
It's actually a good idea, if the intention is to have it collapse probably in under 10 years. And that's assuming the builders don't cheap out, except in China they always do. So if built, I would give it a lifespan of 2-6 years before catastrophic failure. The entire project is absurd.
Movie 2012 anyone? Where China build a dam in the Himalaya's to secretly construct arks for the survival of humanity after the massive Yellowstone eruption and following poleshift 😂😂
Yes, why didn't Trump put some concrete all over Yellowstone? Or do the ground source geo thermal heat pump extraction thing for electricity production? Another fine mess he got you Americans into. When the Yellowstone volcano does erupt eventually the crater will cover almost all of America and then flood with seawater. There will be no more America and the ejecta will end up in the oceans causing sea levels to rise. However the dust thrown up will block the sunlight and the planet will enter a new ice age. All us scholarly boffins know that. So blame Trump. It's all his fault and no mistake.
@@brandon-hh7jf Do not believe the hype, especially CCP hype. This video is tainted with CCP hype. Wherever the Chinese are, is followed by the CCP officials. They are not great engineers, rather they create flawed construction with substandard materials "Dreg Tofu".
May sound superficial & religious, but man should not mess with the embodiment of goddess, the amount of energy that can be harnessed is simply a glimpse of it
Yup! Consult all environmentalist so that your project will be done in one thousand years instead of 10. Hihi. Add the human rights too! Western thinking! Always insisting u're ways!
@@Infernal_Elf The project is large enough that building multiple tunnels could make sense. That would allow each tunnel to be regularly shut down for maintenance.
A certain skill China does not have is drainage. Another one is good construction quality. The quality of construction is so bad in China that it has its own name. Unfortunately, that very name causes my comment to autodelete.
Underground hydroelectric power stations are a great idea. If done well, the sediment goes down the main river rather than into the diverted water inflow which is skimmed off the top. Here in New Zealand we have at least three of these types of hydroelectric power stations, Lake Manapouri being the most well known, which powers our aluminium smelter. By tunnelling a hole into the mountain and then damming the river at the top of the mountain the water "climbs" 30 metres in Lake Manapouri and then drops 178 metres (584 feet) down the tunnel (penstock) into the power station at the bottom of the mountain.
The issue is that the tunnel is almost totally inaccessible for maintenance Just imagine if that 3000 ft water column found a crack in the tunnel wall. It'd erode a new, uncontrolled, tunnel within hours And once it fails, the damage would have a runaway effect. It'd carve a new channel through the mountain, and the bend would eventually go dry
@@user-wv3ew8qq7myou just build 2 or more tunnels so you can empty one ( close a water valve at the top, open an air valve) and do maintenance on it while the other tunnels are in use.
Especially when it is In the middle of a hot spot for earthquakes and those mountains are slowly rising each year. The whole concept is absurd and destined to fail
@@chandleredwards The problem with micro generation is in the cost and loss of distribution. Why does Vegas thrive? It's only about 30 miles from the Hoover Dam. Water and all the electriciry needed to pump it.
Dams has sediment flushing provisions with the outlets lower than the turbine outlets. Run of the river dam do not stop the flow of water. After a brief period of filling the dam normal river water resume. However some water may be diverted for irrigation
The British had a plan to divert the Yarlung Zangpo into the Kali Gandhaki. Where the Kali Gandhaki cuts through the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna mountains is the deepest gorge on Earth.
The same people have no say here. They only give unwanted advice to other countries that do not need their unsolicited ill advice. Classic example they were kicked out of EU for trying to brag too much.
Nah. 60% of Brahmaputra is fed by tributaries within India. Plus as they said it will be a run-of-the-river dam not a reservoir, hence no water will be stored. Plus even if China builds a huge reservoir dam or divert water. It will be a boon to India, since the Brahmaputra river flooded every year causing billions in damage. And India has no capacity to respond to it. The current flood as of today has resulted in 50+ loss of life in Assam. Imagine if China stops or diverts 40% of that water, people in Assam will be grateful.
Yes. But the climate change will soon melt all the global ice and everything will be underwater apart from mountains which might not be able to produce food for the survivors. Everyone will have to develop an appetite for sea food. I don't suppose building a dam will be at the top of the list.
My opinion.. Put that much water flowing that far downhill, that fast, the water will scour the inside of the tunnel quickly. Water is harder than steel, harder than rock or concrete, and flowing water oscillates. Quickly, it will bang into one side of the tunnel and then the other. Single digit years, that is all it will last. Lessons were learned in the spillway tunnels of Glen Canyon Dam during the high releases of 1983 and 1984
Yeah nah the speed of the water as well as the weight of it can be distributed... the problem for this endeavour is the ridiculous cost of such a thing... some napkin calculations result in the need of at least 4 17m wide tunnels to be bored out over a disrance of 50km... that is insane in and on itself, no idea how many waterways you'd need to have this volume split up into to keep the cement from being erroded but just the tunneling itself would be about 50bn$... add the infrastructure needed to get there and the water management structures they are probably looking at ~ 3x that cost... idk if that is even feasible unless they find a magic wand to get those costs in check. Technically it can be built... but the cost would be astronomical.
@@axhed Won't matter. Good concrete or Chinese 'tofu' construction, solid granite. We confuse water with being soft,, you can float in it, swim, dive, drink but water is actually harder than steel We think of materials as having 4 states,, gas, liquid, solid, plasma. Water has 19 states,, and some research puts that number at 21 states, or 23 states. My favourite,, (I like a good kaboom as well as anyone) when it goes critical. 218 atmospheres of pressure at greater than 705F,, at that moment, it turns to steam.
@@mycardbrokedown5699 China has the money to do anything. The Americans have no money to do anything other than wars, threats and terrorism all over the world, so they ridicule the Chinese. Americans and Europeans are failures and losers. They do not have the capacity and competence that China has.
The run of the river system seems the most logical and environmentally friendly way to harness the massive hydroelectric power potential of the Yarlung Tsangpo river and preserving its natural surrondings as much as possible at the same time. Over the 5,000 years of Chinese history, mega engineering projects like building the Great Wall of China and the Grand Canal and most recently the Three Gorges Dam, are testament to China's engineering prowess. Based on past records, I am sure the Chinese will be able to pull this off when they are ready to proceed. Cheers to China!
Not only indian soldiers, Chinese Soldiers also lost their lives and even more in numbers then india. its separate thing that china couldn't give homage and gratitude to their martyr soldiers.
Yes, lets build a damn on top of a seismically active area. Not like the Himalayas are done growing... this is like buying your toddler super expensive shoes. 😂
I mean y'all said the same thing when they were building The 3 Gorges Dam or when they were manufacturing semiconductors or the Electric cars or the 5G etc...And guess what...China pissed on all of the WEST and went on to be the best🤷
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.Uhhhh, to illustrate to we westerners how much power it produces. That's how everyone does it. You have to give comparisons so people can understand the scale.
I saw a small dam in Idaho burst, back in about 1980, whole roadbeds were transferred, intact, a long way. There was one old 3 story farmstead with it's snow stair moved about 1/2 of a mile, we played 'Match the House' where you try to figure whar pile of rubble matched which cellar. A fun car game. Dams fail. Think New York in about 1902ish. Death and destruction from a smaller dam project.
More than 75% of water to Brahmaputra comes from India and Myanmar, not from Tsangpo section of Tibet. So India is already gearing up to minimize any adverse impacts. It's Bangladesh which would be severely affected. And hello Pakistani, read some more so that you don't look 🤡.
China could work with India & Bangladesh to build additional power generation for them. They’re far more likely to gain Bangladesh’s and India’s cooperation if they share the wealth.
1:32 "to use a nuclear weapon & blow up that damn..." what a typical American response lol... thinking nuking bomb is always the solution to any problem in life. 🤡
You think the CCP gives a shit about international laws? Just look at the S. China sea as an example. The Chinese don’t give a F, they’ll step on your neck if it gave them the edge up.
So you show a recent Chinese impromptu claim on India's Arunachal Pradesh as contentious, which has been part of India without a counter from China for decades. Then you show only India’s Kashmir as contentious, whereas the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (as claimed by India for decades) is conveniently shown as an integrated part of Pakistan. Wonder where this is coming from!!? Hypocrisy has its limits!
Remove all the cement blocking rivers asap. The subcontinent just recorded a temperature of 53C degree this June. This is beyond what humans can withstand (ditto, animals, fish, birds, microbes.)
also not smart: Destroying the planet by destroying nature when flooding forests bigger than whole nations. And how many millions of tons of CO2 and methane will be generated by this project?
A lot of things are built along major fault lines. Most cities in fact, because that's where the water is. The entire nation of Japan is an active seismic area. I'm guessing if a project like this can last 100 years it would be a massive success with the amount of electricity it will generate in that time.
I’ve said for decades that China’s interest and stranglehold on Tibet is “Water Related”. They’ve already managed to cut down the volume in several rivers that are critical for the Mekong River and Bangaladesh and NE India. If they continue to harness the headwaters of so many rivers it WILL become a serious geopolitical problem.
nope not really that river in china doesn't even rainfall enough. It actually becomes big river only on Indian side bcz India receives massive rainfall.
The international dispute over Indus waters began in 1948, when engineers in East Punjab shut off water supplies to an important Pakistani canal. Ever since, political narratives in Pakistan have cast the struggle for Indus waters as a matter of national survival. And this is why India is holding on to Kashmir and Pakistan is spending $419B of their GDP because india intends to make Pakistan a barron wasteland. Both India and China are wrong!!!! Just sucks when the sho is on the other foot.
@@AkashKumar-qo3xj I think you are slightly mistaken. Neither we claim nor we want to invade anyone to be one country. We just want to remind all citizens of these countries that we were ONE once and undivided. But divisive forces have separated us and started to exploit with divide and rule policy, rendering us vulnerable to growth and development, not withstanding the dirty politics in these countries, post separation.
The tunneling variant looks much safer and cost effficent to me, even if a lot of power gets unused while it flows over, or doesent fit into the tunnel. Because you can avoid being destroyed by landslides, a lot of sediment can still flow through, and you dont have to deal with this big waves of flush every monsoon season. So the overflow can still use the old riverbed and wont break your dam. It takes longer, but its way more protected from the elements, and safer from earthquakes and falling rocks.
Let me know when a single mega project ever on this channel is completed. I tried to go back 3 years. Maybe i am mistaken. Not saying 0 mega projects have ever been finished. Just saying none i have seen on this channel. 3 years isn't much either. Now maybe 10 years.
@@bsherder Well, having been involved in building for 6 decades I’d note that even simple projects have a tendency to NOT “Come in” by their projected date. Its rather amusing to see Architect, Owner, Construction Mgr standing about after a well blown date trying to decide when next to project its completion … IF you’re not in anywise responsible for the project’s end date.
A Kilowatt hour is the amount of energy delivered by a kilowatt in one hour. Kilowatt is flow rate of energy, Kilowatt hour is the amount of energy. 300 billion kilowatt-hour per year means that the dam would produce enough energy in a year to power something at 1Kilowatt for 300 billion hours.

What does it mean to power the UK for one year? If it can power the UK then it can do so permanently, not just for one year.

It means that the dam should be able to produce electricity equivalent to UK's one-year electricity consumption.
@@rinotilde2699 In the period of one year. In other words this dam alone could supply the entire UK demand with electricity.

A tunnel setup would be exceptionally good for their downstream neighbors.Because its not holding any water back,normal flow is preserved.
Electricity output would be somewhat variable over the year but i still think its the right move.Other powerplants can level those highs and lows.
The only real question is whether the tunnel is cost effective
TOFU - DREGS DOOMED TO FAIL
It's actually a good idea, if the intention is to have it collapse probably in under 10 years. And that's assuming the builders don't cheap out, except in China they always do. So if built, I would give it a lifespan of 2-6 years before catastrophic failure. The entire project is absurd.

The US is learning the hard way, right now, that tunnels for water create cavitation that damages the tunnel.
cavitation can be avoided with the right design. it only happens under specific conditions. Friction wear happens anyway tho but takes very long time.
@@Infernal_Elf The project is large enough that building multiple tunnels could make sense. That would allow each tunnel to be regularly shut down for maintenance.
A certain skill China does not have is drainage. Another one is good construction quality. The quality of construction is so bad in China that it has its own name. Unfortunately, that very name causes my comment to autodelete.

Underground hydroelectric power stations are a great idea. If done well, the sediment goes down the main river rather than into the diverted water inflow which is skimmed off the top. Here in New Zealand we have at least three of these types of hydroelectric power stations, Lake Manapouri being the most well known, which powers our aluminium smelter. By tunnelling a hole into the mountain and then damming the river at the top of the mountain the water "climbs" 30 metres in Lake Manapouri and then drops 178 metres (584 feet) down the tunnel (penstock) into the power station at the bottom of the mountain.
The issue is that the tunnel is almost totally inaccessible for maintenance
Just imagine if that 3000 ft water column found a crack in the tunnel wall. It'd erode a new, uncontrolled, tunnel within hours
And once it fails, the damage would have a runaway effect. It'd carve a new channel through the mountain, and the bend would eventually go dry
@@user-wv3ew8qq7myou just build 2 or more tunnels so you can empty one ( close a water valve at the top, open an air valve) and do maintenance on it while the other tunnels are in use.
Especially when it is In the middle of a hot spot for earthquakes and those mountains are slowly rising each year. The whole concept is absurd and destined to fail
Micro power generators placed along the river can harness power without the costs of digging a tunnel or building a flow interrupting dam.

The problem with micro generation is in the cost and loss of distribution. Why does Vegas thrive? It's only about 30 miles from the Hoover Dam. Water and all the electriciry needed to pump it.

If its going te be realized, then India and Bangladesh have to start building there water reservoirs. Hopefully they will cooperate together.
they should have built water reservoirs decades ago
Nah. 60% of Brahmaputra is fed by tributaries within India. Plus as they said it will be a run-of-the-river dam not a reservoir, hence no water will be stored.
Plus even if China builds a huge reservoir dam or divert water. It will be a boon to India, since the Brahmaputra river flooded every year causing billions in damage. And India has no capacity to respond to it. The current flood as of today has resulted in 50+ loss of life in Assam. Imagine if China stops or diverts 40% of that water, people in Assam will be grateful.
Yes.
But the climate change will soon melt all the global ice and everything will be underwater apart from mountains which might not be able to produce food for the survivors.
Everyone will have to develop an appetite for sea food.
I don't suppose building a dam will be at the top of the list.

You don't have to wait for a lightening strike to power the DeLorean. Just plug it in.
My opinion.. Put that much water flowing that far downhill, that fast, the water will scour the inside of the tunnel quickly. Water is harder than steel, harder than rock or concrete, and flowing water oscillates. Quickly, it will bang into one side of the tunnel and then the other. Single digit years, that is all it will last. Lessons were learned in the spillway tunnels of Glen Canyon Dam during the high releases of 1983 and 1984
(H2O) best protective barrier against radiation-!!!🤗. Former nuclear reactor inspector😇
Yeah nah the speed of the water as well as the weight of it can be distributed... the problem for this endeavour is the ridiculous cost of such a thing... some napkin calculations result in the need of at least 4 17m wide tunnels to be bored out over a disrance of 50km... that is insane in and on itself, no idea how many waterways you'd need to have this volume split up into to keep the cement from being erroded but just the tunneling itself would be about 50bn$... add the infrastructure needed to get there and the water management structures they are probably looking at ~ 3x that cost... idk if that is even feasible unless they find a magic wand to get those costs in check. Technically it can be built... but the cost would be astronomical.
don't forget you'd be lining those tunnels with chinese concrete...
@@axhed Won't matter. Good concrete or Chinese 'tofu' construction, solid granite. We confuse water with being soft,, you can float in it, swim, dive, drink but water is actually harder than steel We think of materials as having 4 states,, gas, liquid, solid, plasma. Water has 19 states,, and some research puts that number at 21 states, or 23 states.

The run of the river system seems the most logical and environmentally friendly way to harness the massive hydroelectric power potential of the Yarlung Tsangpo river and preserving its natural surrondings as much as possible at the same time. Over the 5,000 years of Chinese history, mega engineering projects like building the Great Wall of China and the Grand Canal and most recently the Three Gorges Dam, are testament to China's engineering prowess. Based on past records, I am sure the Chinese will be able to pull this off when they are ready to proceed. Cheers to China!

The tunneling variant looks much safer and cost effficent to me, even if a lot of power gets unused while it flows over, or doesent fit into the tunnel. Because you can avoid being destroyed by landslides, a lot of sediment can still flow through, and you dont have to deal with this big waves of flush every monsoon season. So the overflow can still use the old riverbed and wont break your dam. It takes longer, but its way more protected from the elements, and safer from earthquakes and falling rocks.

“300 Billion Kilowatts per hour each year” So we have an engineering background but not a grasp on energy literacy??
A Kilowatt hour is the amount of energy delivered by a kilowatt in one hour.

300 billion kilowatt-hour per year means that the dam would produce enough energy in a year to power something at 1Kilowatt for 300 billion hours.
