Under the Strong Growth of Green Power Needs,
Relevant Transaction Regulations Are Set to Become Clearer
From the commitments of various countries to reducing carbon emissions to Apple and Google’s joining of RE100, as it relates to Taiwan — one of the global manufacturing centers, developing green energy is not just a sustainability topic, but is vital to the country’s overall economic development. The future expansion of electric vehicles and semiconductor manufacturing not only depends on a stable energy environment, but also an ample supply of green electricity. With the advent of energy liberalization in Taiwan by 2024, one can expect that the deployment and transaction regulations regarding Taiwan’s green power will be successively laid down.
Major Electricity Users’ Regulations
Users with contract capacity over 5,000 kW must have a green energy use rate of 10% by 2025, self-use or purchased (T-RECs).
Sustainable Corporate Image
In following with UN SDGs (United Nations Sustainable Development Goals), local companies such as Taiwan Cement (TCC) and E.Sun FHC formulated sustainable development plans for environment, society, and corporate governance to promote corporate social responsibility.
Become Part of the Green Energy Supply Chain
With global tech giants racing to announce net zero carbon emission goals and the clean energy supply chain initiatives led by Apple and Microsoft, use of green power has become an important aspect of global companies’ supply chain management.

See the Future from Now
in the Smart Energy Management System
The AI-driven energy management system strengthens the “adaptability” of your site’s energy resources. Through Internet of Energy (IoE) technology, the system integrates photovoltaics systems, storage batteries, charging stations, and other energy equipment, providing you with a systematic overview of power supply and demand; at the same time, through data computing, it predicts the demand in each time period to dispatch energy in advance and automatically regulates the equipment and electrical appliances in your site.
Visualization of Energy Data
Provides concise and integrated data on power usage, generation, and storage, so that with or without a background in energy management, you’ll be able to grasp the energy flows in your site quickly.
AI Smart Control
The AI automatically regulates storage battery discharge and schedules high-power appliance and equipment usage in a site based on overall power demand and expected results.
Demand Forecast and Warning
Through machine learning, the energy management system is able to forecast an energy load curve by analyzing the power usage, generation, and storage data of various sites.
Optimize Contract Capacity
We collect rolling data on power usage, generation, and storage, and provide accurate and feasible contract capacity optimization suggestions.
Participate in Day-ahead Ancillary Services to Get an Edge in Electricity Trading
In the future, CEMS users can enter the electricity market by participating in NextDrive’s “Resources Aggregation (RA) Platform”. The platform integrates power consumption, generation, and storage data, realizes cross-site energy deployment, and combines each site’s power generation and storage resources. As a result, a city-level virtual power plant is formed, enabling participants to have sufficient resources to access ancillary services and energy trading platforms.
