10月28日，漢江流(liu)域水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)開(kai)(kai)發的(de)(de)重要工(gong)程，湖(hu)北省最(zui)大的(de)(de)水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)項目潘口水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站舉行了隆重開(kai)(kai)工(gong)儀式(shi)。湖(hu)北省、十堰(yan)市領導(dao)、京(jing)能(neng)集團、中(zhong)國水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)建設(she)(she)集團水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)五局(ju)、六局(ju)等(deng)單位領導(dao)和(he)職工(gong)以及(ji)移民代表等(deng)近萬(wan)人參加(jia)了開(kai)(kai)工(gong)慶典儀式(shi)。湖(hu)北堵河潘口水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站的(de)(de)開(kai)(kai)工(gong)建設(she)(she)，拉開(kai)(kai)了漢江堵河流(liu)域4座(zuo)水(shui)(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站建設(she)(she)的(de)(de)帷幕(mu)，并可提高中(zhong)線(xian)南水(shui)(shui)(shui)北調(diao)供水(shui)(shui)(shui)量和(he)供水(shui)(shui)(shui)保(bao)證(zheng)率，具有特別重要的(de)(de)意義(yi)。
上(shang)午10點53分，隨著開工(gong)令的下(xia)達，潘口水電站工(gong)程建設正式啟動。頓時，整個工(gong)地上(shang)鑼鼓(gu)(gu)喧天(tian)，鞭炮齊鳴，彩帶(dai)飛舞；一蔟蔟的彩色(se)氣球升上(shang)了天(tian)空，整個會(hui)場鼓(gu)(gu)樂(le)聲聲，熱鬧非凡。
潘(pan)口水電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)位于堵(du)河下游(you)(you)河段。堵(du)河為(wei)漢江中下游(you)(you)南岸的(de)一級(ji)支流(liu)，發源于大(da)巴山(shan)北麓，全(quan)(quan)長354公(gong)里(li)，總落(luo)差(cha)超過500米(mi)(mi)。該電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)是惠澤(ze)竹山(shan)、竹溪縣的(de)湖(hu)北省重(zhong)點扶(fu)貧項目，是漢江堵(du)河流(liu)域梯級(ji)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)開發中最大(da)的(de)龍頭電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)之一。總投資43.97億元、裝機(ji)51.3萬千瓦，年(nian)(nian)發電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)量(liang)10.5億千瓦時(shi)。壩(ba)址控制流(liu)域面(mian)積8950平(ping)方公(gong)里(li)。該電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)以發電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)為(wei)主，兼有防洪、扶(fu)貧、生態保(bao)護(hu)等多重(zhong)效益(yi)。樞(shu)紐工(gong)程(cheng)主要建(jian)(jian)筑物包括：河床混凝土面(mian)板堆(dui)石壩(ba)、右岸岸邊(bian)開敞式(shi)溢洪道、右岸泄洪洞、左岸引(yin)水發電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)系統等。水電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)設計壩(ba)高(gao)114米(mi)(mi)；壩(ba)頂長292米(mi)(mi)；水庫正(zheng)常(chang)蓄(xu)(xu)水水位355米(mi)(mi)，為(wei)完全(quan)(quan)年(nian)(nian)調(diao)節水庫。由進水口、引(yin)水遂(sui)洞、地面(mian)廠(chang)房、開關站(zhan)(zhan)等組(zu)成，設有3臺發電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)機(ji)組(zu)；屬大(da)型一等工(gong)程(cheng)。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)建(jian)(jian)成后可有效緩解湖(hu)北電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網的(de)調(diao)峰、調(diao)頻壓(ya)力，對(dui)優化系統的(de)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)源結構、降低火電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)機(ji)組(zu)煤耗、提高(gao)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)網安全(quan)(quan)運行都具(ju)有十(shi)分(fen)重(zhong)要的(de)作用。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)建(jian)(jian)設工(gong)期為(wei)3年(nian)(nian)零7個月。其中工(gong)程(cheng)準備期為(wei)12個月，主體工(gong)程(cheng)施工(gong)期30個月，工(gong)程(cheng)完建(jian)(jian)期1個月。工(gong)程(cheng)計劃2008年(nian)(nian)10月實施堵(du)河截流(liu)，2010年(nian)(nian)正(zheng)式(shi)下閘蓄(xu)(xu)水。電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)距(ju)竹山(shan)縣城13公(gong)里(li)，距(ju)十(shi)堰市(shi)162公(gong)里(li)。
