The Agongdian Reservoir (traditional Chinese: 阿公店水庫; simplified Chinese: 阿公店水库; pinyin: Āgōngdiàn Shuǐkù) is a reservoir in Gangshan District and Yanchao District in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
The construction of the reservoir started in 1942.[1] It was completed in 1952.[2] In 1998, the Executive Yuan approved the renovation work for the reservoir. Work commenced in February 2000 by the Southern Branch Office of the Water Resources Agency and was completed in July 2006. The renovation work included conduit spillway reconstruction, water intake tower reconstruction and 116,000,000 m3 reservoir dredging.[3] In 2017, the Agongdian Solar PV Park, a floating photovoltaic power plant located on the lake, was commissioned.[4]
