Taiwan has electricity shortages? Huh.

• boomboomsubban 3y ago
  Most places have occasional electricity shortages when some power plant has some short term issue, but have a large connected grid that let's them get power from elsewhere. Ignoring all political difficulties that Taiwan might have doing that, they have a huge population on a tiny island 100 miles from anything else.

  They have nuclear power plants but switched them off after Fukushima. Now they use coal and gas plants instead.
