In response to my country's 2050 net-zero transition, the Ministry of Economic Affairs announced the "Energy Conservation Strategic Plan" from 2023 to 2030 yesterday, revealing for the first time an additional electricity saving target of 35.13 billion kWh in 2030, which is enough to supply the annual electricity consumption of two TSMCs.

Ministry of Economic Affairs announces 2030 energy saving targets

[Reporter Lin Jinghua/Taipei Report] In response to my country's 2050 net-zero transition, the National Development and Development Council will announce the "Twelve Key Strategies" at the end of the year. The Ministry of Economic Affairs' draft "Energy Conservation Strategy" was released yesterday. , transportation, research and development and other five areas, put forward six strategies, and for the first time revealed the new energy-saving goals in 2030.

300 million kWh, which is enough to supply the annual electricity consumption of two TSMCs.

Industrial energy saving will account for 49% of total electricity saving

The six major strategies include equipment efficiency in line with international standards, promotion of building energy efficiency grading, and empowerment of corporate responsibility for spontaneous energy conservation. Since industrial energy conservation will account for 49% of total electricity savings, it is quite noticeable. Four motors, the efficiency can be improved by one compared with IE three.

five%.

Officials pointed out that the EU control regulations are not up to IE level 4, but the number of motors is huge. According to the inventory of the Energy Bureau, the electricity consumption related to motor power equipment accounts for as much as 70% of industrial electricity consumption, and some domestic manufacturers have produced IE 4 motor products. Compliant with regulations.

The total energy saving of large electricity users can be doubled by up to 2%

The energy-saving strategy has also set out a new energy-saving target. In 2030, the total energy-saving of major industrial and commercial energy users will be "doubled".

Officials said that there are currently more than 4,800 manufacturers in the manufacturing and service industries that have a 1% electricity saving regulation, and the existing plan will be implemented until 2024; A step-by-step power saving rate target will be set according to the enterprise category or contracted capacity scale, which may be between 1% and 2%.

The improvement of industrial processes is also a key point. The six major industries, such as petrochemicals, electronics, steel, cement, textiles, and papermaking, have long-term implementation of energy conservation and carbon reduction. Taking the electronics industry as an example, by 2030, process power conservation, semiconductor and panel etching will be introduced one after another. Fluorine-containing gas replacement and other measures.

In addition, residential buildings should be equipped with green buildings, and there will be a building energy efficiency classification system, promotion of green building materials and construction methods, etc.; transportation vehicle energy conservation will include mandatory inspection of tire efficiency projects, and a 30% increase in new car energy efficiency standards.

A considerable saving of 8.87 million households in electricity consumption for one year

The Bureau of Energy estimates that after maximizing energy efficiency in the five areas, there will be 351 additional power savings in 2030.

300 million kWh, about 8.87 million small households in Taiwan use electricity for one year, and it is also enough to supply the leading wafer foundry TSMC to produce electricity at home and abroad for two years.

Undersecretary of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Zeng Wensheng emphasized that the manufacturing industry is "less people consume more electricity", but in the future, together with housing that "more people use less electricity", it will also be included in the energy saving strategy, so it is necessary to communicate with the society; the Energy Bureau said that yesterday was only the beginning of the On the stage, in the future, we will have to talk to different industries, collect opinions, and come up with the final version of the energy-saving strategy at the end of the year.
