The controversy surrounding the SRF power plant in Taoyuan continues to escalate, with the Ministry of Economic Affairs recently revoking the city government's decision to stop the plant from entering the science park, sparking public discontent. Taoyuan Mayor Cheng Wen-tsan criticized the central government for its inconsistency between pre and post-election actions and announced the implementation of measures to reclaim excess emission rights and strengthen environmental impact assessment (EIA) to resist the plant's entry. Concerns over air pollution caused by the SRF power plant have led to local opposition, with legislators expressing worries about potential pollution issues and confronting the central government over the plant's return to the science park.
