Despite its natural limitations such as shorter daylight hours compared with other cities, New Taipei City remains dedicated to promoting the development of renewable energy. The current capacity of renewable energy installations has grown by 67.6 MW, exceeding the city’s 2020 goal of 47 MW. The city government will continue to encourage installation of solar power generation systems through several subsidies programs for private rooftop solar and green energy rooftop, and the amount of subsidies is determined by the total capacity of solar power installations. New Taipei City is also installing solar power generation systems on public rooftops. To date, installations providing a capacity of 19.65 MW have been installed. The annual generation capacity stands at approximately 20.63 million kWh, which leads to a significant reduction of carbon emissions by 10,502 metric tons annually.
