  2. Content • Introduction and Country Overview • Energy and Environmental Policy • Taiwan’s LEAP Model Framework • Model Results for Business As Usual Case and Other Scenarios • Future Plans

  3. Introduction • Western edge of the Pacific Ocean, • South of Japan, • North of the Philippines, • 160 km off the southeast coast of mainland Chain across the Taiwan Strait

  4. Landscape • 2/3 is Mountianous, only ¼is arable • Rivers are short, but useful for power generation • 23 million population on 36,000 km2 one of the most densely populated • With biodiversity

  5. Economy • Foreign trade has been the engine of Taiwan's economic growth (FX Reserve ranks 4th ) • A leading producer of high-technology goods • GDP (2008) = US$ 392 billion, per capita GDP = US$ 17,116 • Agriculture accounts for 2%, Services at 73%, and Industry around 25%. • Unemployment Rate (Jul. 2010) is 5.20%; lower than 2% before 1990. • Development relies on further transformation to a high technology and service-oriented economy

  6. Energy Facts Share of world population: 0.3% Land area: 0.06% of total Share of world energy consumption: 1.0% Share of world electricity consumption:1.3% Per capita power consumption: 9,550 KWh Rank 13th in the world ~ 3.7 times of world average Total Amount of CO2 Emission: 261 MT Rank 22nd around the world ~ 1.0 % of world total 2005 Data from IEA Statistics of 2007

  7. Energy Policy • With scarce natural resources, thus depends almost exclusively on imported energy (99%). • Formal energy policy framework formulated in 1973, after the first energy crisis. • In the latest revision, the goal of Taiwan’s energy policy has been set to establish a liberal, orderly, efficient, clean, and sustainable energy demand and supply system

  8. Energy Authority • Energy Commissionunder the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) in 1979. • In 2004, upgraded as the Bureau of Energy(BOE) • Formulate and implement national energy policies such as the "Energy Management Act (EMA)", "Electricity Act (EA)", "Petroleum Administration Act (PAA)", "Regulations Governing Administration of Gas Utilities (RGAGU)", and other energy-related regulations.

  9. Energy Authority BOE also : • Guides the operations of energy enterprises • Evaluates energy supply and demand • Establishes energy database system • Promotes energy conservation programs • Implements R&D on energy tech. • Promotes international energy cooperation.

  10. Main Approaches* • Stabilizing energy supply, • Increasing energy efficiency, • Deregulating energy markets, • Emphasizing energy security and environmental protection, • Enhancing energy R&D, • Promoting energy education

  11. Environmental Protection • Environmental protection policies developed later. • In 1987, "Environmental Protection Administration" (EPA) was established as a formal administration. • The EPA mandate includes: air quality and noise control, water quality , waste management, environmental sanitation and toxic substance management, supervision, and evaluation, and many others.

  12. Focus on Climate Change • Many Environmental Levies/Charges implemented in the1990s. • The EPA has been actively responding to the UNFCC. • Currently facilitating the legislation of“Greenhouse Gases Reduction Act (GHGRA)” • Tentative goal of the reduction of CO2 emission: return to the level of 2008 between 2016 and 2020; return to the level of 2000 (=214.5 Mt) in 2025.

  13. The

  14. Higher Profile of Energy/Environmental Authorities • The BOE will be upgraded as the Ministry of Economy and Energy, • The EPA will be upscaled to the Department of Environment and Resources. • Taiwan’s core principle of energy policy has been shifted to the balancing of the “three Es”, seeking a “Win-Win-Win Solution” for energy security, environment protection, and economic competitiveness.

  15. National Energy Conference The National Energy Conference (April, 2009) further developed the following four major policies : • Sustaining energy development and establishing energy security for a low carbon society; • Developing energy technology and applying energy conservation and carbon dioxide reduction technology; • Promoting efficient energy management and setting up green power and a concentrated non-energy industry; and • Designing energy price and an open energy market for reasonable cost-based rates

  16. Draft GHG Reduction Act Will control GHG emission in three phases: • Phase 1: emission required to conduct GHG inventories, verification, and registration • Phase 2: performance standards would be implemented to control per unit consumption or per unit product emission • Phase 3: a cap-and-trade system would be implemented

  17. Renewable Energy Development Act (2009) • Give credits to the total amount of renewable energy in the range of 6,500MW to 10,000MW, • Establish funds to subsidize renewable energy, to set up purchase rates, • Design procurement rates for different renewable resources, • To give incentives to highly potential self-faculties, • Assist renewable energy owners in acquiring land. • Based on government target, installed capacity of renewable energy is projected to be around 8,450MW, or 15% of the system total installed • capacity around 56,640MW in 2025.

  18. Renewable Energy Target • 2,500MW will come from hydro, 3,000MW from wind power, 1,000MW from solar photovoltaic (PV), 1,400MW from biomass,5 50MW from fuel cell, geothermal and ocean power. • Taiwan Power Company’s (Taipower’s) 7th transmission and substation plan from 2010~2015 will greatly enhance the system’s ability to connect a large scale of wind power and solar PV to the power grids.

  19. Wind Power • The offshorewind power project started in 2007, up to 300MW until 2011 • Renewable Energy Development Act offers preferential price of wind energy and to ensure that not less than the average cost of power generation from fossil fuels • However, the annual CF (capacity factor, see Appendix) decreased significantly, from 0.43 to 0.27 with more wind turbines installed and low operational performance was also a serious problem.

  20. Wind Power Problems • Average wind speed (5.6m/s) is lower than other countries • Need to develop localized low speed onshore wind turbines and high efficiency SWTs ( Small wind Turbines) in the future. • Should focus on producing power from them, instead of installing capacity of wind turbines

  21. Sustainable Energy Policy Guidelines on June 5, 2008 • and approved the Energy Conservation and Carbon Dioxide Reduction Action Planbased on the Guidelines on September 4, 2008.

  22. Low Energy Prices • Historically, Energy prices have been low in Taiwan, even during the oil-price spikes in mid-2008. • For exmaple, prices for 95 Unleaded Gasoline (US dollars per liter) were $0.64 in 2002, $0.9 in Sept. 2009. • Average electricity prices (US$/kWh) were lower than $0.07 for the two decades from1988 to 2007, and rose to $0.08 in 2008 • Thus, consveration incentive is weak and energy efficiency low.

  24. Green Tax Reform • the high-profile Tax Reform Committee (May 2008 ~ Dec. 2009) proposed a Green Tax Reform • To levy energy taxes and carbon taxes on exhaustible fossil fuelson a revenue-neutral basis; that is, by recycling Green Tax revenues into income tax cuts and subsidies for public transportation systems • Provide incentives for energy savings and CO2 abatement without hurting the economy and the poor. • Very likely to be legislated in 2011.

  25. Movable Polluting Resources • Air Pollution Control Fees Fixed Construction Sites Green Tax Planned Green Tax Water Rights Fees(not yet levied)、Hot Spring Fees、 Water Resource Conservation and Feedback Fees Resource tax Mines Fees Soil & Stones Extraction Fees Excise Tax、Vehicle Fuel Fees, Oil Fund Energy Tax Pollution Fees or tax • Soil and Underground Water Pollution Control Fees • Sea Disposal Fees (not yet levied) • Water Pollution Fees (not yet levied) Environmental Tax • Noise Control Fees • Waste Disposal Fees CO2 added as new • Reclyclable Disposal Fees 29

  26. Six Key Emerging Industries Plan • Green energy and tourism, medicine and health care, biotechnology,, culture and creation, and high-end agriculture. • Goal: to upgrade industrial competitiveness and break through the difficulties facing exports at a time when the international economic situation is yet to recover.

  27. Taiwan’s Energy Status(1/3)- Supply • Eenergy supply grew from 42 million kLOE in 1986, to 139 million kLOE in 2006 • Annual growth rate averaging 6.2%. • Petroleum and Coal account for 97%.

  28. Taiwan’s Energy Status 50% 47% Structure of Energy Supply in Taiwan: 1986 - 2007

  29. Taiwan’s Energy Status(2/3)- Demand • Energy consumed 37.73 million kLOE in 1986, increased to 112.28 million kLOE in 2007 • Average annual growth rate around 5.5%. • Industrial and transportation are the main users.

  30. Taiwan’s Energy Status 11% 53% 14% The Structure of Taiwan’s Energy Demand by Sector, 1986-2007

  31. Taiwan’s Energy Status(3/3)- CO2 emissions • Total CO2 emissions in 1990 were 108.6 million metric tons, growing to 215.6 mmt in 2000, then to 265.8 mmt in 2007. • The average annual growth rate of total CO2 emissions for Taiwan over 1990 -2008 was 4.8%. • It is noteworthy that in 2008, total CO2 emissions grew by -4%, falling from 2007 levels to 255 million metric tons, due to oil price hike and financial crisis.
