XINYUAN Wheeled Excavators Evaluated for Tibet’s Mega Hydropower Project

2025-08-07

LHASA, Tibet – China’s Yarlung Tsangpo hydropower project,

 a key clean energy initiative, is assessing XINYUAN wheeled excavators for high-altitude construction. 

The massive dam, planned for completion by 2035,

 could generate 60 million kilowatts—tripling the Three Gorges Dam’s output.

Why XINYUAN?

• High-altitude performance: Turbocharged engines maintain power in thin air.

• Mobility: Compact, all-wheel-drive design suits rugged terrain.

• Eco-friendly: Meets China IV emission standards, aligning with green goals.

If selected, the excavators would support:
✔ Early-stage road construction
✔ Long-term dam maintenance
