Wait, you mean rotate the entire Panama landmass?
On a more serious note, anything about my question about hydroelectric power utilizing sea level differences?
They sell the rest.Only 25% of the hydroelectric power produced in the canal system is required to run the canal
I mean, more! Dig up hundreds of canals in Panama, Costa Rica, and power the world! Megaprojects galoreUh, that is what they do.

The cost to construct the third set of locks is estimated by the ACP at approximately US $5.25 billion. This estimate includes design, administrative, construction, testing, environmental mitigation, and commissioning costs. Additionally, this cost includes contingencies to cover risks and unforeseen events, such as those that might be caused by accidents, design changes, price increases, and possible delays, among others. The most relevant program cost is that of constructing the two new lock complexes – one on the Atlantic side and the other on the Pacific side – with estimated costs of approximately US $1.110 billion and US $1.03 billion each, plus a US $590 million provision for possible contingencies during their construction
