Taipower initiated the testing of Unit 1 of the Nuclear Power Plant No. 3 on Monday evening, interpreted by the public as a 'power shortage.' Minister of Economic Affairs Guo Zhixhui clarified it as a routine test, and Taipower issued a statement emphasizing it was normal operation. Taipower then announced testing on Unit 2 of the nuclear power plant for tonight to avoid further misunderstandings. Amid recent concerns about power shortage, Taipower reiterated its commitment to ensuring stable power supply. The public is urged to differentiate routine tests on critical equipment like gas turbines for nuclear safety from actual power shortages resulting from equipment malfunctions.
