Itaipu has 18 turbines, 9 are owned by Brazil, 9 are owned by Paraguay. I think Praguay only uses one of its turbines to power over 90% of the country. While Brazil accepts power from the other 17 turbines and this powers something like 30-40% of their country. This gives you an idea about how underdeveloped Paraguay is.
Here's some pictures. The dam was just so huge. You have to see it to believe it.
