GWEC and RE100, an initiative led by The Climate Group in partnership with CDP, are organising a webcast series on “Corporates in the Global Energy Transition” throughout 2020. The Taiwan edition was held on 13 August 2020, beginning with a webcast highlighting the opportunities and challenges for corporate procurement of renewable energy in Taiwan. 

The Director of the Energy Technology Division at Taiwan's Bureau of Energy spoke about the role of renewables in Taiwan's energy transition. International law firm Baker McKenzie explained the legal and regulatory frameworks supporting the corporate market in Taiwan, including potential barriers for market actors. TCI discussed the on-the-ground reality from the corporate demand-side perspective, unpacking the experience, gaps, and upsides for the procurement of renewables.  

Following the webcast, there was opportunity for free networking sessions bringing together corporate renewable energy buyers, sellers and advisers, hosted for one hour on the virtual events platform.
