Stay updated on Taiwan’s water situation with the latest news from TVBS. Recent rainfall has brought relief to reservoirs in central and northern Taiwan, with the Feitsui Reservoir receiving the most benefit. While reservoir levels have improved, officials remain vigilant about water conservation efforts and potential rainfall during the upcoming holiday. The Water Resources Agency is actively implementing strategies to ensure water sustainability across the region.

The Water Resources Agency assures ample water supply in Taichung until May. Daily consumption ranges between 1.4 and 1.5 million tons, sourced mainly from Liyutan and Techi Reservoirs. Liyutan is at 46.5% capacity, Techi at 69%. Shihmen Reservoir in the North faces strain. Agricultural supplies began on Feb. 15 for spring farming irrigation. WRA will monitor spring rainfall for water management.

The urban planning committee of Taiwan’s Ministry of the Interior (MOI) has approved phase two of the Central Taiwan Science Park (CTSP) expansion project, which is closely linked to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). This project aims to meet the advanced manufacturing needs of Taiwan’s semiconductor industry. The CTSP administration received support from committee members, and the land is expected to be handed over to factories by mid-2024 for public works construction. The expansion will convert agricultural and institutional land into a specialized area and public facility space spanning 89 hectares. In addition to creating 4,500 jobs to strengthen the semiconductor industry, the project will also align with climate change strategies and targets for a net-zero path by 2050. This includes a timeline for the supply of reclaimed water and renewable energy. The MOI emphasizes that these strategies and targets will respond to international sustainability goals while balancing global competitiveness with local sustainable development.
