Energy in Taiwan

In 2024, 83.2% of Taiwan's electricity generation came from fossil fuels (42.4% natural gas, 39.3% coal), 4.2% from nuclear, 11.6% from renewables, and 1.1% from pumped-storage. Taiwan relies on imports for almost 98% of its energy, which leaves the island's energy supply vulnerable to external disruption. In order to reduce this dependence, the Ministry of Economic Affairs' Bureau of Energy has been actively promoting energy research at several universities since the 1990s.
