There have been 7 power outages in 15 days. In response to the outside world's doubts about the frequent occurrence of power outages in Kaohsiung, Taiwan Power stated that it will continue to strengthen regional line inspections and replace old equipment to reduce the occurrence of power outages and avoid inconvenience to people.
In addition, TAI also stated that sporadic regional power outages reported by the public and media attention were mostly caused by power outages in power outages. From 2017 to 2022, about 50% of accidents were affected by external forces such as birds, beasts, trees, or thunder. In response to accidents caused by external forces, TaiPhone has tried its best to reduce the risk of power distribution equipment being affected by external objects by installing bird repellent , rat-proof nets, tree pruning and hole sealing.
It is worth noting that as early as March this year, after a major power outage in Kaohsiung, Wang Meihua, head of the Taiwan Economic Department, said that "the power outage is because of the birds", and also emphasized that "there will be monkeys, snakes and squirrels in the countryside", which triggered condemnation by the people on the island and denounced him as "very thick-skinned."
