Hsinchu Science Park -- home to many of Taiwan's high- technology firms -- has been shut since Tuesday. The normal combined output of companies there is more than NT$2 billion per day, according to the commission. Taiwan Power Co., the state power monopoly, said it restored 80 percent of the park's power today.

Here's a rebuttal of sorts: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM: news, msgs) said its mask-making shop is up and running, it is pressuring its purified water lines used to wash chips and it was able to ship wafers already at the end of the production process.
