List of power plants in Taiwan
The power plants in Taiwan are shown both on a map and in tables (with key figures). The list is not complete.
Installed capacity and annual production
In 2011, Taiwan was in 19th place in the world for annual generation with 235 billion kWh and in 20th place for installed capacity with 48,480 MW.
The installed capacity of all power plants in Taiwan amounted to 41,181 MW in 2014, of which 31,968 MW was accounted for by the state electricity supplier Taipower and the rest by independent electricity producers. The Taipower power plant park consists of gas power plants (10,607 MW or 25.8%), coal-fired power plants (8,200 MW or 19.9%), nuclear power plants (5,144 MW or 12.5%), oil power plants (3,325 MW or 8, 1%), pumped storage power plants (2,602 MW or 6.3%) and from renewable energies (2,089 MW or 5.1%). The installed capacity of the independent electricity producers was 9,214 MW (22.4%) and consists mainly of coal and gas power plants.
In 2014 Taipower produced 164.194 billion kWh, of which coal-fired power plants produced 60.424 billion (28.3%), gas-fired power plants 50.243 billion (23.5%), nuclear power plants 40.079 billion (18.8%), and pumped storage power plants 3.174 Billion (1.5%), from oil power plants 4.970 billion (2.3%) and from renewable energies 5.304 billion (2.5%). The independent electricity producers generated a further 49.235 billion kWh (23.1%).
