Plan to Harness Tiber River for Power
Italian hydraulic engineers propose a Tiber hydroelectric project near Rome. Seven dams and plants would generate 650 million kilowatts annually and irrigate 100000 acres, using waters from nearby lakes and three rivers. An autoway atop the first dam would connect ancient Salaria and Flaminia roads. Cost estimated at 100 million dollars.
