Distinguished guests,
Ladies and gentlemen,
Dear friends,
Good morning!


Today we are very glad to gather here in the beautiful city of Kunming to celebrate the opening ceremony of the International Conference of Hydropower 2006 cosponsored by China Hydropower Engineering Consulting Group, IWHR, CHINCOLD, China Society for Hydroelectric Engineering and China Association of Hydraulics. This is a great event of the international community of hydropower. Here, on behalf of the provincial government of Yunnan Province, I’d like to extent our sincere congratulations on the opening of this conference and warm welcome to all the guests present here. 


    This conference serves as an important platform for the international hydropower community to exchange the experiences of hydropower development and publicize the green energy of hydropower. There will be four major topics on this conference, including the design and construction of high arch dam. Selecting Yunnan as the venue of this conference shows the recognition and the support of the domestic and international hydropower community to the hydropower development of Yunnan Province. I am deeply convinced that this conference will be a golden opportunity for Yunnan to learn the advanced experiences and technology in this field and to accelerate the development of hydropower industry of Yunnan Province.


China is among the top list of the world in terms of hydropower resources, and Yunnan Province is endowed with the richest hydropower resources in China, thus acquiring the beautiful name as the “Hydropower Kingdom” and “Asian Water Tower”. The total exploited volume of hydropower of Yunnan Province is nearly 100 GW, accounting for a quarter of China’s total. In 1912, China’s first hydro plant Shilongba Hydro Plant was built here. Since China adopted the Reform and Opening Up Policy, especially in 2000 when Yunnan provincial government identified the power industry as the pillar industry with hydropower being the backbone, the hydropower development has stepped into a rapid development period. With the construction of Manwan and Dachaoshan Hydropower Projects at 1000 MW level and a batch of medium and small-scale hydropower projects, Yunnan’s installed capacity will exceed 10000 MW by the end of this year. Along with the successive commencement of a group of large hydropower projects namely the Xiaowan、Nuozhadu、Xiluodu、Xiangjiaba Hydropower Projects, Yunnan Province has entered a rapid development period of  hydropower. According to the preliminary plan, the installed capacity of hydropower will exceed 20000 MW by the end of 2010 and 60000 MW by the end of 2020. The hydropower industry has become an important driving force behind the economic and social development of Yunnan Province.


The geological condition of Yunnan Province is very complicated. Therefore the design institutes and construction companies have been very careful, practical and innovative during the construction of high dams and reservoirs in the deep valleys. They have reached the superior level of the world and created many new world records in the aspects of inter-basin water transfer, the construction of all types of dams and the treatment of high slopes. In particular, I’d like to mention Xiaowan Hydropower Project. This is the highest concrete double arch dam in the world, 292m to be specific. The reconnaissance and design of this project are regarded as one of the most difficult in the world. The delegates present here are all the famous experts in the international community of hydropower, so we sincerely hope that you could continue to give you care, support and help to the hydropower development of China and Yunnan Province.

Distinguished guests and dear friends,Yunnan province is located at the southwestern part of China. This is a beautiful and magical place with special natural conditions and abundant resources, boasting magnificent mountains, elegant rivers, pleasant climate and amazing historical inheritance. Yunnan is famous for the variety of nationalities living here. There are totally 26 nationalities in our province. I hope that during your stay here, you could have the opportunity to visit the different places of our province, and your advice to the hydropower development of Yunnan will be greatly appreciated.


Last but not least, I wish a complete success of this conference. And wish all the delegates a good health and all the best.


Thank you very much!
