Taiwan Power Company (Taipower) has recently launched a trial program called Residential and Commercial Energy Saving, where participants can freely decide to join. Those who participate in the program and save more than 2 kilowatt-hours per month can enjoy a fixed electricity fee reduction of $48, and an additional $10 discount for every kilowatt saved. With the collaboration of the Industrial Technology Research Institute, Taipower aims to encourage households with smart home appliances and charging equipment to participate in this initiative, inspired by similar smart energy programs in the US and Japan. The 5-month trial aims to promote energy conservation by adjusting home appliance usage habits, offering electricity bill discounts in return, and fostering cooperation between residential and commercial users in saving energy.
