Economic Minister Kuo Chih-Hui's recent suggestion to conditionally extend the life of the Second and Third Nuclear Power Plants in Taiwan has reignited discussions on the country's energy future under the new administration of Tsai Ing-Wen, with the intention of addressing power shortages amidst AI advancements.
