Taiwan Keeps 2026 Solar PV Feed-In Tariff Rates Unchanged

MOEA maintains last year’s H2 tariffs and introduces a repowering mechanism for solar to support continued renewable energy growth

  • Taiwan’s MOEA has kept 2026 solar PV FIT rates at the same level as the 2nd half of 2025 to provide stability for the renewable energy market 

  • Rooftop solar systems from 1 kW to under 10 kW will receive TWD 5.629/kWh, with rates decreasing for larger systems 

  • The ministry has also introduced a new repowering mechanism for aging solar systems, although it has not specified the tariff level 

The Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) of Taiwan has announced its renewable energy feed-in tariff (FIT) rates for 2026, with solar PV tariffs unchanged from the previous year’s H2 rates. This will continue the momentum of renewable energy development in the country, it explained. 

The FIT rate for rooftop solar projects with a capacity of 1 kW to <10 kW is maintained at TWD 5.629/kW, reducing as the system range goes up. For the 500 kW and above category, the rate is TWD 3.6236/kWh.   

Ground-mounted solar systems of 1 kW or more will continue to receive TWD 3.5037/kWh, while floating PV projects with the same capacity range will be eligible for TWD 3.8948/kWh. The rates for all categories remain the same for Phase I and II or H1 and H2 this year.  

The ministry has introduced a repowering mechanism this year for aging solar PV systems that need to be replaced with higher efficiency products, but it does not specify the tariff rate. 

“Finally, MOEA emphasized that the 2026 FIT review process followed a fair, transparent, and rigorous procedure to ensure that the tariffs, together with related incentives and supporting measures, are well aligned with Taiwan's renewable energy development,” stated the ministry.  

Taiwan targets 50% natural gas, 30% renewable energy, and 20% coal for its 2030 power mix. In 2024, the 3 sources accounted for 42%, 39%, and 12% of the national power generation. 

Late last year, Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan passed amendments to bring in stringent environmental regulations for solar PV installations (see Taiwan Tightens Environmental Norms For Solar PV Projects).
