Taiwan Renewable Energy Association (TREA) Highlights 3 Major Concerns Over the RE30 Electricity Compartment System, Urges Government to Postpone Implementation

In response to MOEA's proposal to promote the "Low-Carbon Electricity RE30" classification management, the association expressed concerns over three major issues. They warned that the program might even foster suspicions of "greenwashing" by blending fossil-based power with green energy, and could result in increased carbon emissions for companies and general consumers not participating in the scheme—thereby severely undermining the resale electricity market and international competitiveness.
