Beijing, January 6 (Xinhua) — In 2025, China invested more than 1.28 trillion yuan (approximately $182.4 billion) in hydropower projects, surpassing the trillion-dollar mark for the fourth consecutive year. This is according to data from the Ministry of Water Resources, presented at a departmental conference held in Beijing from Monday to Tuesday.
Last year, 47,563 hydroelectric projects were completed in China, creating 3.15 million jobs across the country, China's Minister of Water Resources Li Guoying said at the conference.
According to him, by 2025, water management agencies at all levels will have achieved tangible success in preventing floods and droughts, restoring river and lake ecosystems, and developing corresponding digital systems.
Citing ministry statistics, Li Guoying noted that China has been continuously improving its flood and drought disaster prevention system, and last year successfully dealt with 913 river floods that exceeded danger levels.
According to Li Guoying, last year, the China Water Use Rights Exchange registered approximately 14,000 water transactions totaling 1.61 billion cubic meters, a record high. These figures clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of China's innovative research into water conservation mechanisms.
The Minister pointed out the need to promote high-quality development of the water management complex, guarantee national water security, and ensure the contribution of water management to the decisive progress of the basic implementation of socialist modernization.
