The global
temperatures keep rising every year, and a cascade of climate change risks
looms. To address this imminent crisis, leaders of different countries reached
a consensus to end deforestation, reduce methane emissions, and phase out the
use of fossil fuel by 2030 at this year’s COP26 United Nations Climate Change
Conference, hoping to accelerate the pace of global low-carbon transformation.
To fulfill the carbon neutrality goal, countries all over the world are sparing
no efforts in developing green energy.
James Huang, Chairman
of TAITRA emphasized: “Net zero really matters to sustainability of our
environment and survival of human beings. It also represents important opportunities
for Taiwan to keep its foreign trade and exports going. How to use energy in a
smart way really makes a huge difference in terms of whether you could achieve
the ultimate goal of net zero carbon emissions or not.” All these make this
year’s Energy Taiwan very special. TAITRA also took the lead in joining the
initiative of the global MICE industry: Net Zero Carbon Events to ensure its
exhibition venues, including TaiNEX 2 are all certified green buildings. Not
only setting an example, TAITRA will also continue to assist the industry in
the future to make adjustments according to the global net-zero trend to
further promote foreign trade, and seize green energy business opportunities in
the world.
It is international
consensus that, in order to prevent the worst climate damages, we should go out
of our way to achieve net-zero emissions. As one of the most important partners
to the global supply chain, it is also a goal shared by Taiwan,” said Terry
Tsao, Global Chief Marketing Officer at SEMI and President of SEMI Taiwan.
“Forging ahead, SEMI will continue to play an important role in bridging
between the industry, government, academia and research institutes for
exchanges and communication in the process of energy transition and development
of renewables. SEMI is not only finding the blue ocean for Taiwan’s green
energy industry but also assisting the semiconductor industry to build a green
supply chain to enhance corporate competitiveness.”
Energy Taiwan not only
gathered a-list industry players, but also various government agencies. Once
again this year, the exhibition was held in conjunction along with ‘Renewable
Energy Week’ hosted by the Bureau of Energy, Ministry of Economic Affairs
(MOEA), featuring the ‘Green Energy Pavilion’ and ‘Offshore Wind Farm
Operations and Maintenance Technology Zone’, whereas MOEA’s Central Geological
Survey, the Green Energy Industry Promotion Center and MOEA’s Bureau of
Standards, Metrology & Inspection had the government's policy goals,
R&D technologies and achievements in promoting green energy over the years
in full display.
To help Taiwan companies expand their reaches in overseas markets and enhance exchanges with the international energy community, in addition to the physical exhibition, Energy Taiwan’s online edition were also launched on December 8 (all the way to December 24), providing visitors a hybrid and immersive exhibition experience.
