Taiwan's last second nuclear power plant has stopped operation from Saturday (July 27), which will exacerbate concerns about Taiwan's facing energy shortage.
Comprehensive reports of Bloomberg, Lianhe News and Public Television News Network, the third -core energy power plant No. 1 machine operating from 1985 is about to usher in the last period of the operating license.The power plant has begun to decrease the daily power and slowly reduced the daily operation since mid -June, and finally stopped on Saturday.
The Taiwan Nuclear Energy Security Commission said in the press release that after the operation of the No. 1 machine of the Nuclear Third Factory stops operation, Taipower will then carry out carriers and suspension according to the operating procedure, and enter the service from Sunday (28th).
Taipower explained that the current number of machines still need to perform the necessary maintenance work, including fuel to remove the heart, safety equipment, emergency diesel generator maintenance, etc.
After the number of Nuclear Third Factory has stopped operation, there will be about 950,000 kilowatts of power gap in Taiwan, and the proportion of nuclear power supply will drop from the original 6.3%to about 3%.In order to stabilize the power supply, Taipower said that the new power supply has been prepared, and the private Funde Power Plant No. 3 (estimated to be 1.1 million kilowatts) fills the gap.
Taipower spokesman Cai Zhimeng said, "From the perspective of Taipower Corporation this year and next year, while our entire (Nuclear Third Factory) unit retires, the capacity of the new units will be greater than retired units."
There are three nuclear power stations in Taiwan, each station, each station, which are located in Jinshan, Guo Sheng and Ma'anshan.The nuclear third factory in Hengchun Town, Pingtung County and near Maanshan is currently the only nuclear power plant operating, but in addition to the shutdown of the No. 1 machine, the operating license of No. 2 machine will also expire in May next year.
The current nuclear reactor facilities control law of Taiwan stipulates that the longest period of time for the operation license of the nuclear power plant is 40 years.license.
The Kuomintang, which advocates the retaining nuclear power generation, has been repaired on the premise of the end of the current Legislative Yuan, and advocates the cancellation of the 40 -year operation restrictions of the current nuclear power plant.Supporters believe that extending the service life of nuclear power plants will ensure the safety of Taiwan.Another party in Taiwan also supports the amendments.
Bloomberg reported that the movement of Taiwan's nuclear nuclear nuclear and the trend of re -interested in nuclear energy in Taiwan played counter to the world.Nuclear energy does not produce greenhouse gas emissions, but the toxic waste produced may remain radioactive within thousands of years.
Taiwan is currently expected that by 2030, renewable energy will account for a quarter of its energy structure, higher than 12%this year.
But reported that as the artificial intelligence boom promotes the demand for the semiconductor industry, Taiwan, as one of the most important regions of the global semiconductor industry, the problem of energy shortage will attract more and more attention.
In recent months, there have been large -scale power skipping in Taipei, Taoyuan, Kaohsiung, Kinmen and other places.The leaders of He Zixian, the chairman of He Shuo, and Li Yuanzhe, former dean of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, have recently published "nuclear energy is not an enemy, the earth's warmth is the talent" and other comments, calling on Taiwan to rethink energy transformation.
After the Taiwan DPRK party, it is expected that after the recovery of the next session of the Legislative Yuan, it will be confronted on the nuclear reactor facilities control law.If the practice is passed, the three factories may be able to restore operations.
