明潭發電廠, Hydroelectric power station in Shuili, Nantou County, Taiwan.

The Ming Tan Power Station operates using two reservoirs, with Sun Moon Lake serving as the upper reservoir and Ming Tan Reservoir as the lower basin.

Construction of the Ming Tan Power Plant began in September 1987, with the first synchronized operation occurring in 1992 and full completion in 1995.

The power station represents Taiwan's commitment to renewable energy development, contributing to the national goal of reducing fossil fuel dependency.

With a generation capacity of 1,602 megawatts, the facility pumps water uphill during low demand periods and releases it for power generation during peak hours.

The Ming Tan Power Station ranks as the largest hydroelectric facility in Southeast Asia and the tenth largest pumped storage power plant worldwide.
