As a result of economic development in the world, more and more power is needed by metropolitan and industrial users. Spaces in the rural “empty” coastal areas are targeted as sites for electricity generation. A next-generation power plant should not only plan to reduce the impacts, but plan to keep the local, natural, social and historical elements of the site, let the habitat growth naturally, purify the environment, and change the system to one where local communities get greater benefits from the operations of the plant. The proposed plan begins with the plant allocation based on overlapping the bird species richness analysis. The compact, ecofriendly power plant is located on the least environmentally sensitive part of the site and is hidden by a natural skin. The plant forms a green structure that follows the seasonal air current, which will lead the migrating birds down into the wetlands. This should not be a single case in Taiwan. Planning for a power plant needs to appreciate, and compensate, the natural environment from which people take the energy.
