China is building the Motuo Hydropower Station on the Tibetan plateau, which, if completed, would be the world's largest dam. This project is intended to support China's clean energy targets and boost its struggling economy through infrastructure development. However, it has sparked considerable concerns among environmentalists and neighboring countries, particularly India and Bangladesh, regarding water security and environmental risks due to the region's seismic activity. The project details remain scarce, leaving many questions about funding, displacement of local populations, and potential ecological impacts unanswered.
China's Motuo Hydropower Station could become the world's largest hydropower dam, yet its environmental impact and implications for neighboring countries remain largely unexplored.
The Motuo project is framed as a key initiative for achieving clean energy targets but raises significant concerns about water security for India and Bangladesh.
