<P> At present , the largest power generating facility ever built is the Three Gorges Dam in China . The facility generates power by utilizing 32 Francis turbines each having a capacity of 700 MW and two 50 MW turbines , totalling the installed capacity to 22,500 MW , more than twice the installed capacity of the largest nuclear power station , the Kashiwazaki - Kariwa ( Japan ) at 7,965 MW . As of 2017 no power station comparable to Three Gorges is under construction , as the largest under construction power stations are hydroelectric Baihetan Dam ( 16,000 MW ) and Belo Monte Dam ( 11,233 MW ) . </P>
