Taiwan Power Co. (Taipower) will build the country’s largest solar power station in Tainan to reduce carbon emissions. Taipower chief engineer Tu Yueh-yuan proposed that the 5MW plant will produce more power than a 4.6MW facility in Kaohsiung County, Taiwan.
The utility is in talks with Taiwan Sugar, which owns the land for the proposed site, according to Tu. Taipower is building solar stations and wind turbines to meet a target of generating approximately 15% of energy from renewable sources by 2025 to help cut carbon emissions.
