Gas Power Plants Accounted for the Largest Proportion in 2024
TPC thermal power plants made significant progresses by executing their air quality control system retrofit project, air pollutants emission density factor (kg/GWh) has been decreasing year by year.

The Figure of 2016-2024 total air pollutants emissions of TPC thermal power plants (PDF)
- Air pollutant emissions are internal statistics. The offshore island power plants include Chienshan, Tashan, and Zhushan Thermal Power Plants.
- NOx emissions are calculated by NO2.
The Thermal Power Plants in Taiwan
The Thermal Power Plants in Taiwan. Northern power plants: Hsiehho, Linkou, Datan. Central power plants: Tunghsiao, Taichung. Southern power plants: Hsinta, Nanpu, Talin. Offshore island power plants: Zhushan, Tashan, Chienshan.
The concentrations of air pollutant emissions from all TPC thermal power plants are measured to ensure compliance with government and local environmental criteria.

Principles for Setting up Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations
Based on the results of the air pollution emission simulation of thermal power plants in the environmental impact assessment report, Taiwan Power Company (TPC) makes plans for setting the location and number of stations of the "Air Quality Monitoring Stations" in the most environmentally impacted or sensitive areas, which are different from that the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) does based upon population distribution, traffic, industrial areas, meteorological conditions and other factors. The monitoring data of the "Air Quality Monitoring Stations" that has been set up in TPC's thermal power plants are as follows:
