Four Towns Surrounding Nuclear Power Plant Support Extension of Decommissioning

Reported 8 months ago

The No. 1 and No. 2 units of the nuclear power plant, that have been with the residents of the four towns on the Hengchun Peninsula for nearly forty years, will be successively decommissioned in July and May next year. The four town mayors around the plant all expressed their support for the extension of decommissioning. They believe that besides being a stable and low-carbon base-load power source, the approximately 240 million New Taiwan dollars in community goodwill funds from the plant annually are the main source supporting local social welfare. The towns are highly concerned about the reduction in goodwill funds and the safe disposal of nuclear waste after decommissioning.
