An island devoid of natural energy, Taiwan depends mostly on imported one. Therefore, actively developing its sources and reducing reliance on the imports become very important. There still exist some safety concerns regarding all the nuclear power plants throughout the island. More than 60 percent of the residents here support the decision to shut down the fourth nuclear power plant, according to a recent survey. When it comes to nuclear power hazards, the safest way is surely to terminate the operation. If it were so, power generation by fossil fuel would take the place temporarily, followed by the active development and utilization of renewable energy. The shortage of electricity will not be a major cause for concern, and the cost lower. Only the abolition of all four nuclear power plants can people here live without much worry.
