Expect warmer buildings with electric power price increase

Yeah this is true, the electricity prices in Taiwan are still cheap.

This article says it’s 2.56 NTD per kWH: Justice in increasing electricity price levels - Taipei Times

Singapore is 0.28 cents (SGD) per kWH = 6.63 NTD per kWH:

USA is 0.173 cents per kWH on average = 5.45 NTD per kWH:

Highest place in the USA is 0.477 cents per kWH (San Diego) = 15 NTD per kWH

So the electricity rate here is 62% cheaper than in Singapore and 53% cheaper than in the USA.

From personal experiences, I only had to pay around 800 NTD every 2 months for my old place and I used computers, electric grill, occasional A/C. I was surprised how cheap the electricity was.
