Taipower Profile

 

Founded on May 1, 1946, Taipower is a state-owned integrated power utility whose business operations include power generation, transmission, distribution, and electricity sales. In accordance with the Electricity Act, Taipower is responsible for ensuring a stable electricity supply. In 2024, revenue from electricity sales accounted for 98% of the Company's total revenue. As of the end of 2024, the total installed capacity of the Taipower System, including Independent Power Producers (IPPs), reached 57.741 GW, with thermal power as the main source, supplemented by pumped-storage hydro and renewable energy. Taipower operates 622 substations, with a transmission network totaling 18,466.4 circuit kilometers (including overhead lines and underground cables) and a distribution network totaling 434,463 circuit kilometers across Taiwan.

In response to global sustainability trends and the development of the future electricity market, Taipower initiated an organizational transformation. In January 2016, the Company established four business divisions: Power Generation, Nuclear Power, Transmission System, and Distribution and Service. By adopting the business division system, the Headquarters and the Divisions operate under a model of centralized policymaking and decentralized management, aiming to transform the organization from a governmental body into a highly efficient enterprise. Furthermore, in compliance with the requirements of the Electricity Act, Taipower will further transform itself into a holding company with subsidiaries, effectively promoting fair market competition, enhancing business operational efficiency, and advancing corporate sustainability. This transformation goal is to establish Taipower as a prestigious and world-class power utility group that provides the highest quality services to Taiwanese enterprises and individuals.
