Comparative study on dam site selection in the pre-feasibility stage of shitouzhai hydropower station

Abstract

The selection of dam site is the key content in the early stage of hydropower station project. Based on the hydrology, topographic and geological conditions, kinetic energy economic indexes, flood loss of reservoir, project layout, electromechanical and metal structure, construction conditions and project investment of the proposed dam site, this paper makes an in-depth analysis of the dam site selection in the pre-feasibility stage of Shitouzhai Hydropower Station, in order to provide beneficial inspiration for the design of similar projects.
