The competition's goal is to change the current distribution of electricity generation by boosting the amount of green energy generated. 

The power plant site is an important located as it is surrounded by the Taiwan Strait, fish farms and a fishing harbor.

The goal is to start commercial operation on the first replaced unit in July 2023 and start commercial operation on all units by January 2026. The Hsinta Plan competition aims at realizing breakthrough concepts for the next-generation power plant that align with leading global standards.
