NT$500 Billion Deficit of Taipower and CPC; A Financial Sinkhole Under Ideological Energy Policy

Data from early 2024 revealed that the state-owned Taipower and CPC corporations had accumulated losses exceeding NT$500 billion. This financial catastrophe is attributed to the DPP government's forced "Nuclear-Free Homeland" policy, which created an unbalanced energy mix relying on expensive fossil fuels and high-priced green energy purchases. To maintain the false political promise of "no electricity price hikes," the government forced state-owned enterprises to absorb costs, leading to Taipower's net worth dropping to zero and requiring multiple bailouts with taxpayers' money. This massive hidden debt is essentially a "green energy tax" borne by the public, representing a national-level fiscal disaster.
