What this organisation is
Taiwan Power Company runs the island's generation and transmission. The March 2022 "303" failure, which cut supply to some 5.49 million households and halted semiconductor, cement and petrochemical plants, made grid resilience a political question rather than an engineering one. Taipower's answer, announced in September 2022, is the Grid Resilience Strengthening Construction Plan: NT$564.5bn over ten years to 2031, of which NT$437.9bn is distributed-grid work, NT$125bn reinforcement and NT$1.69bn protection, with dedicated microgrids intended to serve the science parks directly. It is a committed programme, not a completed one: in May 2026 the premier said the president had asked for it to be finished in 2028, ahead of schedule. The operator also reports coal holdings above the statutory floor of about 30 days.
The operator on which the semiconductor clusters' continuous power depends, and the organisation whose published programme is the measure of how far that dependence has been hardened.

Every claim on this record is an announcement or a target. Nothing here is recorded as commissioned or delivered.
Completion of the programme by 2031; no interim delivered share is recorded by the module.
Completion brought forward to 2028: the premier said on 6 May 2026 that the president had asked for the programme to be finished ahead of its original schedule, and that earthquakes and storms had made its execution and timing difficult. No delivered share was published with the target.
The Grid Resilience Strengthening Construction Plan — NT$564.5bn over ten years to 2031 (NT$437.9bn distributed grid, NT$125bn reinforcement, NT$1.69bn protection) with microgrids for the science parks.

Was unbekannt bleibt
- No published figure for the share of the resilience programme delivered to date was read; the record carries the commitment and the horizon.
- The Executive Yuan describes the 2028 target as four years early, which implies a 2032 end to the original plan; this record carries 2031 from the 2022 announcement, and the original end year has not been re-read.
