According to the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA), Bureau of Energy, six utility-scale solar projects are planned to be completed this year, and four offshore wind farms will be connected to the power grid, adding a total capacity of 2 GW, or the equivalent of two nuclear reactors.
The new renewable capacity comes at a critical time, as Taiwan's No. 2 Nuclear Power Plant, located in Wanli, New Taipei City, will begin decommissioning in March. This move is part of MOEA's 2025 target power generation ratio which is described as "532," 50% natural gas, 30% coal, 20% renewable energy.
