Mingtan Power Plant (明潭發電廠) is the largest hydroelectric station in Taiwan and the operational hub of the western arm of the modernized Sun Moon Lake Hydroelectric Project. Its pumped-storage units, completed in 1995, use Sun Moon Lake as an upper reservoir and the Mingtan Reservoir on the Shuili River (水里溪) as a lower pool, with a combined capacity of 1,602 MW. Since a 1999 restructuring the plant has also administered several older stations, among them the Sun Moon Lake No. 2 Power Plant, Beishankeng Power Plant, and Zhoushui Hydroelectric Power Station.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
