As the government of Taiwan raises the share of renewables in the island’s energy mix, the momentum of development has also picked up in the related application segments such as energy storage, power dispatch, and smart grid. ...  more

Although the ratio of wind power in Taiwan is currently insignificant, it is elevating each year as large offshore wind farms are implementing grid construction successively, where power dispatching and the stability of power grid will become the priorities. Thus, the “Workshop on Key Technology of Offshore Wind Farm Integrations to Power Supply Security in Taiwan” that made its debut on July 22nd had invited domestic and foreign industries, academia, and research institutions on exploring stability power provision together. ...  more

Various states in the US are conforming to different level of engagement in renewable energy policy, and most electric companies are now more interested in gas-fired power generation from the affordable natural gas due to the majority of disinterest in the implementation of renewable energy sources, especially subsequent to the shale gas revolution. However, this status is about to undergo changes as the oil and gas pipelines in the US became the object of hatred, which resulted in the exorbitant cost for establishing natural gas pipelines. Electric companies might as well forfeit the relevant planning, and shift to the production of renewable energy sources, should this phenomenon become the new norm. ...  more

YIT is developing sustainable data centers that are autonomous, sustainable and powered by renewable energy. As wind turbines, hydro power and even solar panels provide energy for the data center, the waste heat created by data processing is then in turn sold and transferred to a nearby greenhouse where it helps local farmers grow food products. It can also be sold and transferred to an existing district heating system where the need for fossil fuels can be reduced. ...  more
