Project Overview
​
To fulfill the electricity demands of the Penghu Archipelago situated in the Taiwan Strait, Taiwan Power Company is installing a double circuit submarine cable between Yunlin County and Penghu island with a total length of 58.8 kilometers.
The maximum water depth of Penghu Kang-Tao is as deep as -133m. Therefore, submarine cables using cable with high waterproofing ability, having steel wire armor layers and secure optical fiber are considered.
​
Moreover, additional protection devices are designed for the handling of conditions in which the cables encounter rock seabed in the deep-water region so as to prevent damage resulting from ship anchorage and fishing activities and to ensure the quality and stability of the electricity supply.
