President's Office: Respectful but Not Authorised by Tang Yixian's 'Non-Nuclear Homeland Blocking Energy Policy' Statements

Reported 12 months ago

During an interview at the 'Taiwan Grand Future International Summit' organized by InStyle magazine, Tang Yixian, the chairman of Wistron Corporation, advocated for a 30% green energy, 30% nuclear power, and 40% thermal power generation mix in Taiwan's energy policy. Despite being the vice convener of the Presidential Office's Climate Change Commission, Tang's pro-nuclear stance continues to draw attention and discussion, with his recent warning that the 'Non-Nuclear Homeland' slogan may cause Taiwan's decline. The Presidential spokesperson clarified that President Lai Ching-te has not instructed Tang on nuclear energy matters, urging against overinterpretation of Tang's statements. Tang emphasized the importance of a balanced energy policy to ensure Taiwan's carbon reduction and power sufficiency, highlighting the risks of solely relying on non-nuclear energy sources. He reiterated his support for a 30% nuclear, 30% green, and 40% thermal energy mix, emphasizing the need for stable power supply to sustain Taiwan's technological advantages.
