Taiwan is geologically active and as a result there are few viable locations to build a nuclear power plant.
Ironically, the Taipei-Hsinchu metropolitan area is on very solid ground and would have been perfect for a nuclear power station if it weren't so heavily populated.
- account42 5y agoTaiwan already has three nuclear power plants, one of which is being decommisioned. Construction on a fourth was started but halted due to politics.
- Laforet 5y agoThe new plant is fully constructed and permanently mothballed. They went as far as removing all fuel rods and shipped them back to the US manufacturer. Unless something drastic happens I don't think we will see it in operation ever.
