[Reporter Lin Jinghua/Taipei Report] Taiwan Smart Energy Week will be held at the Nangang Exhibition Center for three days starting from the 14th. Huang Zhifang, chairman of the organizer Foreign Trade Association, said that under the intertwined challenges of huge power demand driven by the explosion of AI computing power and the intensification of global climate change, the degree of internationalization of this year's exhibition has reached a record high, reaching 115 companies, an annual increase of 16%. He is optimistic that under the dual trends of AI and carbon reduction, the business opportunities for exhibition matching will continue to grow and will not be lower than in previous years.

Huang Zhifang said that Taiwan Smart Energy Week is held at a critical moment when the demand for AI computing power is surging and global warming threatens, which is particularly meaningful. He said that this year's Taiwan Smart Energy Week has reached a new level of internationalization. He pointed out that there are 460 exhibitors from 20 countries, including 9 national pavilions from the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Singapore, Japan, the United States, and Canada. The overall proportion of international manufacturers accounts for a quarter.

Huang Zhifang emphasized that under the wave of AI transformation, energy management and power management have become the core key; Taiwan's traditional and established companies such as TECO and Datong are actively investing in wind energy, energy storage and energy efficiency management to demonstrate global competitiveness, and Taiwanese industry players have also participated in the promotion of Taiwan's image exhibitions in Poland, Japan, the United States and other overseas countries, allowing Taiwan's energy technology to actively expand into the international market.

Huang Zhifang also mentioned that the Trade Association has mobilized foreign embassies around the world to invite nearly 700 international buyers from 70 countries for matchmaking, focusing on the latest solutions for net-zero carbon emissions and sustainable green energy. It is expected that business opportunities are expected to exceed past performance.

In addition, President Lai Ching-te also attended Taiwan Smart Energy Week for the first time this year, which will help demonstrate Taiwan’s determination to promote sustainable energy policies to international envoys and foreign businessmen.
