Mingtan Reservoir


This reservoir feeds a power station billed as the largest pumped-storage generating plant in Asia. The system uses surplus electricity at night from the 2nd and 3rd nuclear power plant to pump water back up to the original source of the reservoir's water (Sun Moon Lake). During the day, the water is released to generate extra power. It's by the side of the road where County Hwy 131 meets Yuchi township.
