The RE100 initiative, which advocates for businesses to transition to 100% renewable electricity, presents substantial challenges for high-tech export nations such as Taiwan. As a leading global semiconductor manufacturing hub, Taiwan encounters significant structural, policy, and infrastructural constraints that impede its transition to a fully renewable energy-powered economy. This article examines these challenges through six key perspectives: (1) a comparative analysis of renewable energy development between developed nations, e.g., the United Kingdom, and Taiwan; (2) the limitations inherent in Taiwan’s energy transition, including geographic constraints, economic and political complexities, and regulatory hurdles in achieving RE30 by 2030; (3) the risk of Taiwan's high-tech industry losing its competitive edge in global supply chains due to renewable energy deficits; (4) the potential of global carbon asset circulation as a viable strategy for reconciling sustainability with industrial growth; (5) an assessment of global sustainability trends, including COP29 outcomes, EU and US policies, and their implications for Taiwan’s renewable energy strategy; and (6) an evaluation of Taiwan’s renewable energy roadmap and the projected challenges the country will face by 2030. To address these challenges and propose a scalable decarbonization strategy, this study applies the Resource- Based View (RBV) and Dynamic Capability (DC) perspectives, argues that a shift in global sustainability discourse, from RE100 to carbon neutrality, supported by structured carbon asset circulation, offers a more pragmatic and equitable solution for high-energy manufacturing economies. By integrating carbon trading with industrial sustainability strategies, this approach aligns ecological sustainability with global trade competitiveness, fostering a resilient, market-driven, and inclusive carbon economy. |
