Storakersvatnet

Storakersvatnet or Akersvatnet is a lake in the municipality of Rana in Nordland county, Norway. The lake lies about 15 km south of the town of Mo i Rana and less than 900 m from the border with Sweden. The original lake was only 15.9 km2, but a dam was built at the northern end so that it can serve as a reservoir for the Rana power station. This dam has caused the lake to enlarge to an area of 42.3 km2.
