The 3rd meeting of the Taiwan’s National Climate Change Committee has unveiled a comprehensive decarbonization plan involving six key ministries to drive the country’s 2050 net-zero transition. The plan includes 20 flagship carbon reduction projects and six innovative mechanisms across energy, manufacturing, transportation, construction, agriculture, and the environment, aiming for a 28±2% emissions reduction by 2030.
Key initiatives focus on accelerating renewable energy deployment, voluntary industrial emission cuts, net-zero buildings, resilient agriculture, circular economy practices, and electric commercial vehicles. Additionally, Taiwan is advancing innovation, green finance, carbon pricing, regulatory reforms, and sustainability workforce development to support this transition. By integrating technology, finance, and community-driven solutions, the government aims to ensure an inclusive and just transition, laying a strong foundation for sustainable growth and climate resilience.
