Abstract
Since 1990s, European Union began the research project called "Externalities of Energy"(ExternE), for many countries'' researches on environmetal impacts of their own power plants, "External cost" has been an important consideration. Researches of external costs usually uses the Impact Pathway Approach (IPA) to analysis the impacts from power plants.
This study aims to establish an "Environmental External Costs Analysis of Power Plants Model" for Taiwan to calculate the environmental external costs of Taiwan''s own power plants, and provide references when conducting the distribution of each power plants generations.
In this study, we used "Environmental External Costs Analysis of Power Plants Model" to analyze the two energy policies, "Taiwan New Energy Policy" and "Organization for economic cooperation and development/ International energy agency New Policies Scenario". The results showed that for carbon reduction, nuclear power plants did better job than solar power plants. But for external costs analysis, nuclear power plants had higher external costs than solar power plants.
This study only focused on the analysis of environmental external costs of power plants. In addition to conduct the distribution of each power plants generations, one should have to combine the technical feasibilities, generation costs and restrictions of Taiwan region.
