再生能源所產生的電力，是為綠色電力。目前臺灣奬勵再生能源政策，主要是參考德國的固定電價制度，規定電力業者購買義務及規定再生能源的發電配比，以保證優惠價格收購民間的綠色電力，讓電力公司分攤國家的再生能源發電目標，因而增加的成本由全體消費者負擔，但受到國情與政治的影響，我國的電價調整困難，「再生能源發展條」實施後，補貼再生能源發電業者並實施躉購費率，可能成為另一個扭曲的補貼政策。 由於「溫室氣體減量法」、「能源稅條例」遲遲未能通過立法，本研究擬建構具市場供需機制的臺灣再生能源市場，由政府政策規範能源用戶的直接綠色電力需求，以將此類高耗能產業的外部成本內部化，並提供其參與再生能源開發的機會，藉此可使企業設法提高能源使用效率並降低二氧化碳的減排壓力。鑒於我國綠色電力尚未與一般電力作明確分割，本研究並建議政府在法令上作修正，將綠色電力視為不同於一般電力的商品，開放再生能源電力市場自由化。不含再生能源發電之灰色電力市場仍由台電公司經營並維護輸配電線路，其餘部份開放自由化，可加速各種再生能源技術之間的競爭及發展。就環境面可降低外部成本，就產業面可加速再生能源的發展，就政策面不致於因補貼過多造成財務負擔及調高電價。 The electric power generated from renewable energy is called Green Power. In Taiwan, the present policy to encourage renewable energy refers to German fixed electricity price system. It regulates the electric industry’s obligation of purchasing and power generation proportion of renewable energy in order to assure Green Power is purchased at best price. The extra cost shared by Power Company to reach the nation’s renewable energy goal would be added to all consumers. Therefore, subsidizing renewable energy industry and feed-in tariff may become another distorted policy after the implementation of the regulation of renewable energy development. Because 「greenhouse gas emission decrement approach」 and 「energy tax regulation」 has not yet been legislated, this study intends to construct the supply and demand for Taiwan renewable energy market, where the government can regulate the direct demand of green power through policy. So the external cost can be transformed to internal cost and the high energy-consuming industry will have more opportunities to participate in developing renewable energy. In this way, the enterprises would be enforced to manage to enhance the efficiency in using energy and reduce the pressure of carbon dioxide emission. Since our Green Power and ordinary power has not been clearly split, this study suggest the government make modification on regulation, regarding Green Power as products differing from ordinary power, liberalizing renewable energy power market. The grey power market remains being operated by Taiwan Power Company which maintains and delivers electric power circuit. In this way, the competition and development between all kinds of renewable energy technologies would be accelerated. There are several advantages: as for the environment, the external cost could be decreased; as for the industry, renewable energy development could be accelerated; as for the policy, excess subsidy is unlikely to result in financial burden and price raising of electricity.
