With a large reservoir capacity of up to 10 billion cubic meters of water, the flood prevention capacity Flood estimated at 5.6 billion cubic meters, Hoa Binh hydropower plant has made a great contribution to flood prevention, ensuring safety for the entire Northern Delta region, especially Hanoi capital. Since the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant was put into operation until now, the Northern Delta region has no longer had flooding. TDHB has controlled dozens of major floods of over 10,000 m3/sec; Typically, the historic flood in August 1996 had a flow of more than 22,650 m3/sec; The late flood that appeared in October 2017 (when the reservoir was full) had a flow of nearly 16,000 m3/sec with very complicated and unpredictable developments.
