Taiwan turns to coal as nuclear power plant shuts, may seek more LNG

Taiwan could seek more LNG cargoes as one of its nuclear power plants retired this week, though the ministry of economic affairs underlined that two new coal-fired generators will more than offset the power loss. The 935 MW Guosheng Nuclear Power Plant’s reactor No. 2 will be replaced by two coal-fired units with a combined capacity of 1,300 MW.
