The chairman of the opposition and pro-independence Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Tsai Ing-wen, who has declared his intention to become presidential candidate for 2012, announced that if his party wins the presidency, ending nuclear power plants on the island, even in construction. The PDP will close a plant under construction and accelerate the closure of three nuclear power plants currently operating in Taiwan, Tsai said at a news conference.
The fourth nuclear power plant on the island, which has cost 273 000 U.S. $ 500 million, located in the New City of Taipei, has suffered delays in its construction, due to the moratorium imposed by President Chen Shui-bian of the DPP in 2000 and lasted more than a year. "nuclear plant poses an unacceptable risk in view of the nuclear accident in Japan," said opposition leader, who fears that Taiwan will produce something like "with disastrous consequences." The Taiwan's three nuclear power plants generated 19.3% of the total energy consumed on the island.
The president of the state power company Taipower, Chen Gui-ming, said it was not necessary to interrupt the work of the fourth nuclear power plant because it has not yet been installed bars and radioactive material there is no risk of accident. "It's not easy to replace the energy generated by nuclear plants."
