China has one of the world's largest hydroelectric power markets. China will spend over two billion dollars a year, over twenty billion during the 90's, to double current capacity via the addition of over 40,000 megawatts by the year 2000. Imports will total about seven billion dollars this decade. Appendix A lists eighty dams in various stages of planning. Section C-1-f lists priority projects. Primary import opportunities include those for power generation equipment for special needs such as pumped storage projects and very high or very low head dams, for construction equipment, and for engineering and design services. China will import wherever domestic capacity or technology is lacking or where foreign financing mandates international bidding or foreign sourcing.
