This marked the fourth time Taipower received this honor since the program’s inception. Each certification is valid for a period of 2–3 years, and Taipower’s cumulative certification period will reach 10 consecutive years in 2026. At that time, the Company will receive the highest recognition on the “Golden Honor Roll”, alongside other top companies such as Acer, Cathay Life Insurance, and Taiwan Mobile.

Taipower has been nurturing a culture of corporate sports and encouraging its employees to engage in sports activities for many years. The Taipower baseball team was established in 1946, the same year that the Company was founded. Over the years, the Company has also established five other teams in men’s volleyball, women’s badminton, women’s volleyball, men’s soccer, and women’s basketball. The Company has over 500 national team athletes, including notable individuals like Shuo-Yun Sung, Yi-Hui Lin, Tzu-Ya Chen, and Chun-Kai Liao, with 15 athletes representing Taiwan in the 19th Asian Games Hangzhou.

• Chun-Ting Lin, from Taipower’s Taipei West Branch, has a congenital thumb atrophy condition. However, his passion for table tennis remains undiminished. Transitioning from a technology industry engineer to an energy-saving service worker, Lin pursued his dreams of table tennis with the full support of the Company, including access to excellent facilities and equipment. On the 27th, together with his partner Tzu-Yu Lin, he clinched the gold medal in mixed doubles table tennis at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Para Games. This achievement serves as a remarkable testament to Taipower’s commitment to corporate sports and its recent recognition in the field.

In addition to nurturing sports teams, Taipower continues to promote a culture of physical activity among its employees. This includes providing fitness equipment and spaces, organizing running and cycling events, and supporting over 300 voluntary clubs and activities initiated by the employees themselves. Over the past 3 years, nearly 60,000 employees have participated in sports activities. The Company also regularly hosts large-scale sporting events, such as eco-friendly running events to promote green energy in collaboration with wind power generation sites and cycling activities held by the Tashan Power Plant in response to the goal of making Kinmen a low-carbon island.

Taipower also collaborates with its own pool of athletes to organize the “Taipower Fun Ball Camp”, benefiting over 12,000 students to date. Additionally, every year, the Company conducts a “Caring Train” initiative, fulfilling its corporate social responsibility by bringing sports education to children in rural schools.
