Taiwan at Crossroads With Offshore Wind Policy | Zoom In Zoom Out

Taiwan has built some of the largest offshore wind farms in the Asia-Pacific region, the Changhua 1 and 2a. Renewable energy consultants warn however that spiking localization costs could drive international firms out of Taiwan’s market. On this episode of Zoom In Zoom Out, TaiwanPlus reporter Sally Jensen sits down with Raoul Kubitschek, managing director of renewable energy consultancy firm Niras. We first zoom in on Taiwan’s progress in offshore wind power over the past decade, then zoom out to understand why localization costs have become so expensive. #TaiwanPlus #TaiwanPlusNews #TaiwanNews - TaiwanPlus｜https://www.taiwanplus.com TaiwanPlus presents the country’s unique voice on not only local issues but also world events.
