Tsai Chih-Meng, Director of the Business Department, Taiwan Power Company, gave a presentation on the topic “Laws & Regulations, Implementational Producers, and Case Studies of Wheeling of Excess Electricity at Feed-in-Tariff.” As a nationalized industry, Taipower’s mission is to stable the power supply and maintain reasonable cost electricity prices for the people.
