Salavan Downstream Hydropower Project

A transformative renewable energy megaproject reshaping Southeast Asia’s future.



The Salavan Downstream Hydropower Project (Salavan DS HPP) is more than an energy project — it is a symbol of innovation, ambition, and sustainable progress. Located on the Mekong River along the Laos-Thailand border, this project is poised to become one of the most important renewable energy undertakings in the world today.

With an impressive installed capacity of 2,448 megawatts (MW) and a forecasted annual energy generation of over 9,480 gigawatt-hours (GWh) , Salavan DS HPP represents a leap forward not only for Laos but for the entire Southeast Asian region. The project features a barrage dam design with a surface area of 196 square kilometers and a reservoir capacity of 2,050 million cubic meters of water , making it one of the largest and most efficient hydropower developments globally.



🚀 Why This Project Is a Game-Changer

      • Unparalleled Scale and Global Significance
        Salavan DS HPP is not just another renewable energy project — it is a once-in-a-generation undertaking. Its scale is unmatched in the global hydropower sector, and no other project of this size and ambition is currently under development worldwide. The combination of cutting-edge engineering, environmental stewardship, and regional cooperation makes it a landmark in the clean energy transition.

      • A Green, Sustainable Energy Powerhouse
        The project’s primary mission is to deliver clean, renewable energy to multiple countries, including Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. By replacing fossil fuel–based power sources, Salavan DS HPP will dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions, contribute to national and regional climate goals, and position Laos as a leader in the global shift toward sustainability. The project’s design emphasizes environmental friendliness, with meticulous planning to minimize ecological disruption and preserve the Mekong River’s natural balance.

      • Regional Impact and Economic Transformation
        Salavan DS HPP’s influence extends beyond electricity. By providing a stable and reliable power source, the project will catalyze industrial development, stimulate economic growth, and improve the standard of living in surrounding regions. It will enable electrification in remote areas, support the growth of local industries, and generate thousands of direct and

        indirect jobs throughout its development and operational phases.

      • A Magnet for Global Investors and Innovators
        Given its sheer size, strategic location, and transformative potential, Salavan DS HPP has already attracted the attention of global investors, financial institutions, engineering firms, and technology providers. This project offers a rare opportunity for investors and partners to be part of a pioneering initiative that promises not only strong financial returns but also significant environmental and social impact.


      • Efficiency, Innovation, and Future-Proofing
        The project stands out for its optimized investment-to-capacity ratio, one of the most competitive in the hydropower sector. The advanced barrage dam design improves water flow management, enhances power generation efficiency, and reduces environmental impact compared to conventional dam models. Salavan DS HPP is designed to meet both present and future energy demands, ensuring long-term value for all stakeholders involved.



🌍 Unlocking Boundless Opportunities for Partnership


What makes Salavan DS HPP especially exciting is its openness to diverse forms of collaboration. This is not a closed-door project limited to a handful of players — it is an open invitation to visionaries across industries, sectors, and countries.

We welcome:

  • Investors seeking to participate in a high-profile, high-impact energy asset
  • Engineering and construction partners with expertise in large-scale infrastructure
  • Environmental experts offering solutions to enhance sustainability
  • Technology providers bringing innovation to hydropower operations
  • Governments and policy leaders interested in advancing regional cooperation 
  • NGOs and community organizations looking to support local development, livelihoods, and conservation

This project is a rare platform for public-private partnerships, global investment, and technological advancement — all converging to drive progress in one of the world’s most dynamic regions.

 



🌟 A Vision for the Future

At its core, the Salavan Downstream Hydropower Project is about more than power — it’s about purpose. It’s about building a future where economic growth and environmental responsibility go hand in hand, where nations work together to harness natural resources wisely, and where innovation serves both people and the planet.

By joining this project, stakeholders have the chance to be part of an ambitious vision — one that aligns with the global push for clean energy, supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and leaves a positive legacy for generations to come.
