Tai-Power Chairman Tseng Wen-sheng says he believes the island's electricity
industry should be brought into technology-sector decision-making as soon as
possible.

According to Tseng, energy will become increasingly important to the tech
industry because computing power depends on electricity, while electricity
will also become a critical part of the supply chains of the semiconductor
and technology industries.

Speaking to reporters ahead of the 2026 Net-Zero Taiwan and Energy Taiwan
exhibitions, Tseng said Tai-Power needs to play a greater role in industrial
decision-making rather than simply providing electricity, as industrial power
supply and demand patterns evolve.

Tseng also said parts of Tai-Power's operations should take a more
industry-oriented approach, enabling the company to better understand the
technology sector's operating models, business challenges, financial
arrangements and supply chain partnerships.

He also stressed that as businesses' demand for renewable energy grows,
electricity suppliers and consumers should jointly discuss energy
procurement, the acquisition of renewable energy certificates and energy
storage.
