10月28日，漢江(jiang)流域水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)開(kai)發的重(zhong)(zhong)要工(gong)程，湖北(bei)省(sheng)最大的水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)項目(mu)潘口水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)舉(ju)行(xing)了隆重(zhong)(zhong)開(kai)工(gong)儀(yi)(yi)式。湖北(bei)省(sheng)、十堰市領導、京能集(ji)團(tuan)、中(zhong)(zhong)國水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)建設(she)集(ji)團(tuan)水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)五(wu)局、六局等單位領導和職(zhi)工(gong)以及(ji)移(yi)民代(dai)表等近萬人(ren)參加了開(kai)工(gong)慶(qing)典儀(yi)(yi)式。湖北(bei)堵(du)河潘口水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)的開(kai)工(gong)建設(she)，拉開(kai)了漢江(jiang)堵(du)河流域4座(zuo)水(shui)(shui)電(dian)(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)建設(she)的帷幕，并可(ke)提高中(zhong)(zhong)線南水(shui)(shui)北(bei)調(diao)供水(shui)(shui)量和供水(shui)(shui)保證(zheng)率，具有特(te)別重(zhong)(zhong)要的意義。
上午(wu)10點53分(fen)，隨著開工令的(de)下達，潘(pan)口(kou)水電站(zhan)工程建設正(zheng)式啟動。頓時，整個工地上鑼(luo)鼓喧天，鞭炮齊鳴，彩帶飛舞(wu)；一蔟蔟的(de)彩色氣球升(sheng)上了天空，整個會場鼓樂聲聲，熱鬧非凡。
潘口水(shui)(shui)電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)位于堵(du)河(he)下游(you)河(he)段。堵(du)河(he)為(wei)(wei)漢(han)江中(zhong)(zhong)下游(you)南岸(an)(an)的一(yi)級支流(liu)，發(fa)(fa)(fa)源于大巴山北麓，全(quan)長354公(gong)(gong)里，總(zong)(zong)落差超過(guo)500米(mi)。該(gai)電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)是惠澤竹山、竹溪縣的湖北省重(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)點扶貧項目(mu)，是漢(han)江堵(du)河(he)流(liu)域梯級電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)開發(fa)(fa)(fa)中(zhong)(zhong)最大的龍頭電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)之(zhi)一(yi)。總(zong)(zong)投資43.97億元、裝(zhuang)機(ji)51.3萬千瓦，年(nian)發(fa)(fa)(fa)電(dian)量10.5億千瓦時(shi)。壩(ba)址控(kong)制(zhi)流(liu)域面(mian)積8950平方公(gong)(gong)里。該(gai)電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)以(yi)發(fa)(fa)(fa)電(dian)為(wei)(wei)主(zhu)，兼有防(fang)洪(hong)(hong)、扶貧、生態保(bao)護等(deng)多重(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)效益。樞紐工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)主(zhu)要(yao)建筑物包括：河(he)床混凝土面(mian)板堆(dui)石壩(ba)、右岸(an)(an)岸(an)(an)邊開敞式(shi)溢洪(hong)(hong)道、右岸(an)(an)泄洪(hong)(hong)洞(dong)、左岸(an)(an)引(yin)(yin)水(shui)(shui)發(fa)(fa)(fa)電(dian)系統(tong)等(deng)。水(shui)(shui)電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)設計壩(ba)高114米(mi)；壩(ba)頂長292米(mi)；水(shui)(shui)庫正常蓄水(shui)(shui)水(shui)(shui)位355米(mi)，為(wei)(wei)完(wan)全(quan)年(nian)調節水(shui)(shui)庫。由進水(shui)(shui)口、引(yin)(yin)水(shui)(shui)遂洞(dong)、地面(mian)廠房、開關站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)等(deng)組成(cheng)，設有3臺發(fa)(fa)(fa)電(dian)機(ji)組；屬大型一(yi)等(deng)工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)。電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)建成(cheng)后可有效緩解湖北電(dian)網(wang)的調峰、調頻(pin)壓力，對優(you)化系統(tong)的電(dian)源結構、降低(di)火電(dian)機(ji)組煤耗、提高電(dian)網(wang)安(an)全(quan)運行都具有十(shi)分重(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)要(yao)的作(zuo)用(yong)。電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)建設工(gong)(gong)期為(wei)(wei)3年(nian)零(ling)7個(ge)(ge)月(yue)(yue)。其(qi)中(zhong)(zhong)工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)準備期為(wei)(wei)12個(ge)(ge)月(yue)(yue)，主(zhu)體工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)施工(gong)(gong)期30個(ge)(ge)月(yue)(yue)，工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)完(wan)建期1個(ge)(ge)月(yue)(yue)。工(gong)(gong)程(cheng)計劃2008年(nian)10月(yue)(yue)實施堵(du)河(he)截流(liu)，2010年(nian)正式(shi)下閘蓄水(shui)(shui)。電(dian)站(zhan)(zhan)(zhan)距(ju)竹山縣城(cheng)13公(gong)(gong)里，距(ju)十(shi)堰市(shi)162公(gong)(gong)里。
