The Tianshengqiao-II Dam (locally abbreviated as TSQ-II) is a dam and hydroelectric power station on the Nanpan River in the Anlong and Longlin districts in China. Construction of the dam and power plant began in 1982 and was complete in 1997.
The dam's reservoir is fed by the tailwaters of the Tianshengqiao-I Dam 70NaN0 upstream. The dam diverts water east into three 9.530NaN0 long and 90NaN0 diameter headrace tunnels towards the actual power station . At the power station, the water powers six Francis turbines for the production of 1320MW of electricity.[1]
