Abstract
The project sustainability management in China's hydropower development is discussed in this paper. The experiences of the hydropower project development in China are reviewed. The sustainable management methods in the Three Gorges Project are described as an example. Some suggestions for sustainable development and management are presented from the viewpoint of sustainability management. People-centered development and management should be promoted in the future hydropower project construction to ensure cost-effective, environmentally sustainable and socially equitable development. Project management/agency, which is a project management system mainly used for public works in China, should be spread to the whole water conservation and hydropower projects to control the project cost and protect corruption.
