Shilongba Hydropower Station, Hydroelectric power station in Xishan District, China.
The Shilongba Hydropower Station features three main workshops and generates 70 megawatts of power through its turbine generator sets near Dian Lake.
Established in 1912, this facility marks a milestone as the first hydropower station in mainland China, utilizing 22kV transmission lines to deliver electricity to Kunming.
The industrial complex earned recognition as a Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level in 2006, preserving China's early power generation heritage.
China Huadian Corporation manages the facility, which produces over 20 million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually for distribution across the surrounding regions.
Despite four bombing attempts by Japanese forces between 1939 and 1941, the hydropower station maintained its operations throughout the Second Sino-Japanese War.
