Matches in DBpedia 2014 for { ?s ?p The Minghu Dam, renamed the Takuan Dam, is a concrete gravity dam on the Shuili River located 7 km (4 mi) north of Shuili in Nantou County, Taiwan. The dam was constructed between 1980 and 1985 to serve as the lower reservoir for the Minhu Pumped Storage Hydro Power Station. Sun Moon Lake serves as the upper reservoir. The power station which sits near the left abutment of the dam moves water between the two reservoirs to generate electricity. During periods of low demand, such as at night, when electricity is cheap, water is pumped to Sun Moon Lake. When energy demand is high, water is released down to the power station for power generation. This is accomplished by four 252 MW Francis pump-turbine-generators which are reversible and serve to both pump water and generate electricity. The power plant has an installed capacity of 1,008 MW. Mingtan Dam, located downstream serves as the lower reservoir for another pump-storage project with an installed capacity of 1,602 MW. It was the first pumped-storage power station in Taiwan.. }
