Last year, Taipower’s thermal power generation also reduced emissions by 320,000 tons, which is equivalent to planting more than 30 million trees, which is about the annual carbon absorption benefit of 822 Da’an Forest Parks.

Taipower is also doing its best to reduce carbon emissions in the electric power industry.

According to Taipower's statistics, last year's electricity consumption reached 236.76 billion kWh, a record high, about 1.4 billion kWh higher than the 235.34 billion kWh in 2021, which is equivalent to an increase of 336,000 household users' annual electricity consumption. Stable power supply and environmental protection. Through energy transformation such as "increasing gas and reducing coal" and green energy development, the annual thermal carbon emissions were reduced by 320,000 tons compared with the previous year.

If calculated in terms of the carbon absorption benefits of trees, 320,000 tons of carbon emissions is equivalent to "alternative tree planting". About 30 million trees were planted, or 822 Daan Forest Parks were built, hoping to protect the global environment together.
