  Itaipu Dam,中文对应译文是,伊泰普水坝
  伊泰普水坝位于巴西西南部与巴拉圭和阿根廷的交界处,全长7744米,高196米,比埃及的阿斯旺水坝还大六倍。巴拉那河被其拦截后形成深250米、面积达1350平方公里、总蓄水量为290亿立方米的人工湖。自上世纪70年代经历两次电力能源危机后,巴西政府决定同巴拉圭合作建造当时世界上最大的水电站。大坝于1975年 10月起开始建造,1991年5月全部工程完工,耗资183亿美元,水电站发电机组总装机容量为1260万千瓦。
  伊泰普水坝对于这两个大量依靠外国石油作为能源的国家来说,在能源供应和经济发展中发挥着举足轻重的作用。伊泰普水电站不仅能满足巴拉圭全部用电需求,而且能供应巴西全国30%以上的用电量,圣保罗、里约热内卢、米纳斯吉拉斯等主要工业区38%的电力来自伊泰普。
