Penghu is a 10 MW wind power plant in Miaoli, Taiwan. It ranks #53 of 60 Taiwan power plants by installed capacity. As a non-combustion source, it has no direct CO₂ emissions from generation. In context, wind supplies about 4.2% of Taiwan's electricity; the national grid averages 633 gCO₂/kWh (13.4% low-carbon) (2025).

At 10 MW, Penghu is below the median wind plant in Taiwan (14 MW). Technically it is described as Onshore. Its current lifecycle status is “Shelved” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Wind turbines convert moving air into electricity; output is variable and site-dependent, and modern turbines deliver some of the lowest-cost new generation on many grids.
