Abstract
Below Cuijiawan, the main stream of Wuding River is basically a canyon section with exposed bedrock in the channel, intermittent plunging rapids, steep riverbed ratio and steep rock walls on both sides, which has favorable conditions for the construction of hydropower projects and is a key section for hydropower exploitation. Through research and analysis of the current water energy development and utilization, this paper combines the comprehensive improvement planning objectives and design ideas to propose a water energy utilization design that is consistent with the actual situation of Wuding River and reasonably budgeted, so that the abundant water energy resources of Wuding River can be fully utilized and the social, economic and ecological benefits can be unified.
