Power Installation Capacity Accounts for Nearly 70% of Renewable Energy Infrastructure

The development of renewable energy continues to attract growing investment worldwide. According to the World Energy Investment 2023 report released by the International Energy Agency (IEA), global investment in renewable energy in 2023 is expected to reach US$1.7 trillion, an increase of 24% compared to 2021. For the first time, total annual investment in solar power energy will exceed anticipated new investments in the upstream petroleum sector.

Statistics from Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs show that the average annual growth rate of Taiwan’s installed renewable energy capacity over the past five years has reached 21.9%, far exceeding the global average of 9.1%.

Solar power photovoltaics accounts for 68.9% of renewable energy expansion in Taiwan, with the growth rate of offshore wind power at 7.4%, onshore wind power at 5.5%, and conventional hydropower at 13.5%. The percentage of renewable energy installations in Taiwan continues to increase. At today’s Energy Taiwan and Net-Zero Taiwan press conference, speakers from Chinese Petroleum Corporation and Taiwan Cement Corporation shared insights under the theme Building a Complete Ecosystem for Taiwan to Move Towards Net-Zero Emissions.
