Cleaner, more efficient, flexible: benefits of Natural Gas (NG).
A gas-fired plant produces half the carbon emissions of a coal plant. More than environmental benefits, NG is chosen for energy security—a way to diversify supply and avoid over-reliance on a single energy source.
With 50% of our power soon dependent on NG, there’s a catch: nearly all of it is imported. Currently, most of NG in Taiwan comes from Australia and Qatar. But what happens when global markets shift? To secure a stable, long-term supply, we’re looking north—to Alaska.
Alaska has abundant NG resources, and it has attracted the Asian market, including the CPC Corporation, the core of the petrochemicals industry in Taiwan. If an import agreement is reached, it will strengthen our energy security and diversification plans.
Nevertheless, energy security isn’t just about where we get power. It’s about how we use it. Businesses need solutions that cut costs, lower emissions, and increase reliability—and that’s where on-site power generation becomes a necessity.

With AMPOWER’s CHP (Combined Heat and Power) systems, businesses can generate their own electricity from NG instead of depending on the unpredictable grid, using energy more efficiently and reducing waste—a smarter way to power operations.
That’s why one Taipei hospital made the switch. With AMPOWER’s NG CHP and absorption cooling systems, they cut 1.9 million kWh of electricity consumption annually, reduced overall carbon emissions by 3.5%, and significantly cut operational costs without sacrificing reliability.
The shift to NG isn’t just a policy change. It’s an opportunity. For businesses, hospitals, and industries, a stable gas supply plus smarter energy use means lower costs, lower emissions, and greater control. Is your business ready to make the shift with AMPOWER?
