The content of the main work in this year can be divided into four parts. First part relates to implementing the acceptance, review, auditing, and appropriation of grants applications. Second part is about operating the LPG database, completing the data files, and doing statistical analysis. Third part is about collecting information of domestic Hybrid-LPG vehicles and gas refuel stations. Fourth part is about business relations meetings. The results are described below:
(1)Conduct the implementing the acceptance, review, auditing, and appropriation of grants applications through comprehensive examination and cross-comparison by computers. And we use the information system to automatically generate verification sheets and ensure the information is correct.
(2)Building up the information system can collect all information of the database and using cross-comparison can improve the efficiency of reviews. The dealers of gas refuel stations can know several things about the applications, such as rejection or complement, the information of the subsidy of gas price float-adjusted price bulletin, the information and records of refueling cars (including number, fuel types, and valid examination date) and related statistical analysis.
(3)Adding the gas filling record of subsidy applications into the database can conduct related statistical analysis and promote existing outcome or serve as reference for future promotion. According to the information of subsidiary approvals from 2008 to 2014 the adjustment policies can greatly reduce promotion costs.
(4)After the official adoption of electronic cash flow in appropriating the subsidy in 2014, the monthly average of appropriating amount has increased to NT$7.30 million and the time required for the application of appropriation has been reduced to 0.5 to 1 month. The efficiency has improved two-fold compared to the appropriating method done by the former commissioned company that required a deposit of $6 million.
(5)Caused by the impact of continuous decline in international oil prices, the difference between the price of oil and gas has continued shrinking. The difference between the price of oil and gas has been less than NT$12.7/liter since 18 August 2014. And the subsidy unit price has been topped up to NT$2/liter. Both the vehicle numbers allocated to LPG and gas allocation amount have shown a downward trend as being affected by the plummeting oil prices.
(6)According to the information of Hybrid-LPG vehicle numbers and the amount of gas provided by the Ministry of Transportation and Communication (MOTC), we can know the registered number of Hybrid-LPG vehicles has gradually fallen since the EPA has decided not to continue to provide subsidy for modification. However, the amount of gas emission has a different trend. In addition, the average gas emitted by vehicle per month is between 400-500 liter. It shows the stable use of gas in the market.
(7)There are totally 65 domestic gas refueling stations by December 2014, including 12 that has been close. Therefore, those still opening are 53. After inquiring with the dealers, they indicate their decision to close down because of long term losses. These are characterized by not being the directly operated pure gas refueling stations of CPC, opening a station in the counties with the least amount of gas.
(8)Analysis of the impact of the gas refueling stations ceasing to operate shows that 20% of vehicles no longer be used it when one station nearby stops opening, while the other vehicles move to neighboring gas refueling stations.
(9)To understand public views and recommendations, on-site visit to gas refuel station employer, refitting factory employer, and Hybrid-LPG vehicle owners. The gas refueling stations and refitting factories suggest to continue providing gas price subsidy to maintain the price gap between LPG and gasoline. In addition, the advantages of Hybrid-LPG vehicle should be strengthened by promotion.
(10)Compiling the outcome from the past years of price subsidy, we can find the promotion of Hybrid-LPG vehicles can replace 1% of gasoline usage. It indicates gas subsidy can diversify the use of energy.
(11)The plan had respectively held a business forum and business relations meeting on 20 October 2014 and 23 January 2015, which were focused on the thematic explanation of gas price subsidy matter. Gas stations, modification plants and taxi unions were invited to the meetings. Various opinions from the participants were interchanged, collected and compiled during the meetings to serve as a reference for follow-up implementation.
