Thanks to Dr J.R. Camacho for pointing this out - for over two decades, the world's largest dam and hydro power station is in Brazil: the Itaipu power station, with a 196 m high, 7.76 km long dam, generated more than 93 TWh (a TWh = Terawatt-hour or a thousand million kWh), a world record, and more than the 3-Gorges dam is expected to produce when reaching full capacity.
