Construction on the project began in June 2010. The first generator was commissioned in June 2014 and a second 1,200 MW phase is planned for completion in 2017. When fully operational, the power station will have an installed capacity of 2,400 MW. The power station operates by shifting water between an upper and lower reservoir to generate electricity. The lower reservoir is located on Hebei River and the upper reservoir is located in a valley above the north side of the lower reservoir. During periods of low energy demand, such as at night, water is pumped from Hongping Lower Reservoir up to the upper reservoir.
