China's Major Hydropower Project in Tibet Raises Environmental and Geopolitical ConcernsPreviousNext

China is constructing the Motuo Hydropower Station in Tibet, a significant project expected to generate 60 gigawatts of electricity with an investment of $165 billion. While the project promises energy and potential control over river waters, it raises concerns regarding environmental impact, displacement of at least a million people, and geopolitical tensions, particularly for India, due to potential water resource control.
