"There are almost 200 large Dams in Burma. Burma (Myanmar) has a large hydroelectric power potential of 39,000 megawatts (52,000,000 hp), although the economical exploitable potential is about 37,000 megawatts (50,000,000 hp). Burma tripled its installed capacity of hydro plants, from 253 megawatts (339,000 hp) in 1990 to 745 megawatts (999,000 hp) in 2002. Total installed capacity in 2010 is at least 2,449 megawatts (3,284,000 hp) MW, 6% of potential. Several large dams are planned to increase future hydro utilization..."
