カプラン水車
The power plant houses seven 175 MW Kaplan turbine-generators and one 60 MW Kaplan turbine generator. The total installed capacity is 1,285 megawatts, with a total annual energy production of 7,406 GWh. Around 95% of produced electricity (the seven 175 MW generators) would be exported to Thailand through a planned long transmission line from the Xayaburi Dam to Loei Province in Thailand. The dam's construction will take 96 months at a cost of approximately US$3.5 billion. It will become operational by 2020.
