The Company has been authorized, by the Governing Authority, to service and supply customer natural gas as fuel, in approved districts only. Also, the Company could provide household customer piping consultation, natural gas safety device installation and other related works by filing request in advance. 2. Operation Highlights Current Industry Status There are twenty five public natural gas companies in Taiwan, R.O.C., which were approved by the Governing Authority. Their natural gas is provided solely by the government owned China Petroleum Cooperation (Taiwan) or CPC. Market Future Demand Status To meet the local demands and stable the natural gas supply, CPC signed long-term supply contracts with different foreign countries. Also, the rich reserve and mass mining of shale gas around the globe could be another prominent natural gas source to CPC, as far as the supply security concerned. Competitive Niche According to the “Natural Gas Enterprise Act”, the public natural gas company can not provide natural gas to non- Page 2 of 9 service district’s customer without the approval of Central Governing Authority in advance. No overlapping service district between every two nearby natural gas companies, yet. Currently, those companies enjoy the exclusive niche within their own service districts. Service Districts Zhonghe, Yonghe, Xindian and Shenkeng Districts in New Taipei City and Wenshan District in Taipei City.

Page 3 of 9 Planning pipeline extension to prominent residential compounds: The Company is targeting chief of village or Management committee of prominent residential area for future pipeline extension consideration and striving for the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) customer turnover opportunity. Individual prominent non-customer in the serviced residential area: The Company constantly reaches out non-customer households within the pipeline serviced community or residential buildings via telephone or text message for wining the natural gas installation order. Increasing commercial customer account: Due to the declining trend of the household average gas volume sales, the Company is striving for prominent commercial non-customers to switch from oil boiler to natural gas boiler, not only for increasing the growth of gas volume sales, but also the cleaner environmental consideration. Natural Gas Supply Safety Mechanism Main storage and supply equipments: The Company sets up two underground cylindrical tanks with 160,000 cubic meters volume in total, for natural gas pipeline distribution and regulation purposes. Also, the Company has eleven pressure regulator stations for gas pressure stability and supply quality improvement purposes. The Company installed numerous instruments to utilize the effectiveness of natural gas storages and transmission systems monitoring mechanism (SCADA System) to Monitoring Center around the clock, along with on duty personnel in three Page 4 of 9 shifts. The SCADA system can constantly screen the parameters of earthquake, pressure, leaking, access control and flooding. It would automatically inform the on duty personnel for further emergency management, when the abnormal signals went off. The Company breaks down its natural gas pipeline network into 15 segmentations (6 in Taipei city and 9 in New Taipei City). Each of segmentation can be individually shut down for service, maintained, and re-connected to the pipeline network for high quality network management. The Company established levels of emergency response mechanism, along with engineering profession personnel on alert, in order to cope with natural disasters and other situations. According to the Article 51 of Natural Gas Enterprise Act, the Company shall submit the pipeline replacement proposal annually to the Governing Authority. The Company would follow the schedule to replace the outdated or rusted pipelines when the application has been approved. 3.

Operation Prospects Safety First To enhance the results of household customer regular two-year checkup, the Company would leave notice to absent customer for re-arrange checkup appointment. To comply the Natural Gas Enterprise Act, the Company replace household natural gas meter every ten years vigorously. In 2017, the Company completed 32,610 gas meters replacement, with 14,056 computerized gas meters (43% in total). In 2018, the Company accomplished 26,909 gas meters replacement, with 14,574 computerized gas meters (54.16% in total), from January to September. In order to coordinate with government’s computerized gas meter promotion policy, the Company adopted several approaches to attract customer’s attention for better understanding of four key advantages of computerized gas meter, such as “overflow shutdown”, “overtime shutdown”, “earthquake shutdown”, and “low pressure shutdown”. Hopefully, customer would choose to install the computerized gas meter for better household safety protection. Page 7 of 9 Priority Service From October 1st 2018, the partially upgraded MIS (ERP) computer system of the Company is officially online for better customer service capability and quality. The Company continually upholds the excellence of customer service activity, for better “Customer Centric Service Quality”. Household’s gas bill is payable via money transfer, credit card payment, convenience store counter, and internet collection & payment platform. Also, household customer could join the Company’s Internet membership program to enjoy the advantage of virtual e-payment facility in a paper-free environment. Business Continuity The Company is a public natural gas enterprise. The gas rate is regulated by the governing authority, which might not reflect Company’s current cost effectively. Despite of the central government recently enhanced the restraint and strength by amending regulations, which might affect the Company’s earning power, the Company still firmly embrace the business philosophy to overcome issues, and seek for growth for the goal for business continuity.

  • A Data-Driven Probabilistic Rainfall-Inundation Model for Flash-Flood Warnings
    water Article A Data-Driven Probabilistic Rainfall-Inundation Model for Flash-Flood Warnings Tsung-Yi Pan 1,*, Hsuan-Tien Lin 2 and Hao-Yu Liao 3 1 Center for Weather Climate and Disaster Research, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan 2 Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan; [email protected] 3 Research Center of Climate Change and Sustainable Development, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-2-33661710 Received: 20 October 2019; Accepted: 27 November 2019; Published: 30 November 2019 Abstract: Owing to their short duration and high intensity, flash floods are among the most devastating natural disasters in metropolises. The existing warning tools—flood potential maps and two-dimensional numerical models—are disadvantaged by time-consuming computation and complex model calibration. This study develops a data-driven, probabilistic rainfall-inundation model for flash-flood warnings. Applying a modified support vector machine (SVM) to limited flood information, the model provides probabilistic outputs, which are superior to the Boolean functions of the traditional rainfall-flood threshold method. The probabilistic SVM-based model is based on a data preprocessing framework that identifies the expected durations of hazardous rainfalls via rainfall pattern analysis, ensuring satisfactory training data, and optimal rainfall thresholds for validating the input/output data. The proposed model was implemented in 12 flash-flooded districts of the Xindian River. It was found that (1) hydrological rainfall pattern analysis improves the hazardous event identification (used for configuring the input layer of the SVM); (2) brief hazardous events are more critical than longer-lasting events; and (3) the SVM model exports the probability of flash flooding 1 to 3 h in advance.

    Proceedings of the 8th Conf. Int. Forum Urban., D026, doi:10.3390/ifou-D026. True Smart and Green City? 8th Conference of the International Forum on Urbanism Conference Proceedings Paper Toward an Urban Frontier and the Inter-Linkage: The Taipei Scenario Tzen-Ying Jenny Ling Architecture Department, Tamkang University, No. 151, Yingzhuan Road, Tamsui District, New Taipei City, 25157, Taiwan * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; Tel.: +886-262-156-56; Fax: +886-239- 59318; E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract: The hybridization or cross breeding of the regional spatial transformation creates an urban frontier that expresses the tectonic shifts focusing on urban activities change and population migration. The scalar shift that spans across the regional scale brings what lacks within the inter-linkage of “city” and “world” and look beyond the territorial division at large. In Taipei, the phenomenon of geographic concentration of specific sector and economic activity in the metropolitan areas imply the underlying characteristic expounded beneath that can be utilized. Size and growth rate of urbanization thru the population concentration highlight the presence of an intense redistribution, creating a frontier land in need of inter liking of a sort. The empirical results highlight the need for improved connectivity between the northern and other regions in Taiwan and the need to address two major issues--the need re-examine the management policy for land and industry development and the need to provide the suitable public facilities and services for the changing population structure. Other spatial paradigms such as networks or nodes may provide unconventional texture and visualizations of this region, which we can develop into a scalable set of strategies that allocate more localized considered operations to emerge.
