On September 23, 2024, China Hydropower Fourth Bureau made another significant progress in the construction of the Yellow River Yangqu Hydropower Station. The rotor of Unit 3 was successfully lifted, marking the successful installation of the core rotating components of all three units of the hydropower station. As the lifting task of large equipment approaches its end, Yangqu Hydropower Station is fully committed to the final stage of production and power generation.

The rotor lifted this time, as the heart of the hydroelectric generator unit, weighs 970 tons (including the balance beam) and has a diameter of 12.72 meters. Its design and manufacturing reflect high-precision and cutting-edge technological levels. Especially the rotor yoke, which is precisely stacked with over 9600 punched pieces only 3 millimeters thick, demonstrates excellent process precision. After 340 days of intense construction, from the installation of the first unit rotor to the completion of all three units, China Hydropower Fourth Bureau has ensured that every indicator is superior to international standards with excellent construction management and technical strength.

Faced with a tight schedule and complex construction conditions, the Yangqu project department has demonstrated a high level of organizational and innovative abilities. Through meticulous process arrangement, scientific construction plan optimization, and efficient resource allocation, the project department successfully overcame multiple challenges and ensured the smooth progress of the construction schedule. Especially during nighttime operations such as material transportation, the continuity and efficiency of linear construction are maximally guaranteed.

As a key supporting power source for the "Qingyu DC" ultra-high voltage transmission channel, the construction of Yangqu Hydropower Station is of great significance for promoting the development of clean energy in Qinghai Province and even the whole country. The total installed capacity of the power station has reached 1.2 million kilowatts, with an expected annual power generation of 4.732 billion kilowatt hours, which is equivalent to reducing standard coal consumption by about 1.66 million tons per year. This has a profound impact on promoting the large-scale application of new energy and building a clean energy base in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. With the successful hoisting of the rotors of three units, Yangqu Hydropower Station is one step closer to the goal of full operation and power generation.
