On October 24, 2024, Taiwan's President Lai chaired the second meeting of the National Climate Change Committee. In the meeting's conclusions, it was noted that Taiwan Ministry of Environment reported plans to set a new carbon reduction target for 2032. In 2025, countries around the world will submit their updated Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) for 2035, and Taiwan must align with global efforts. Taiwan's new carbon reduction target for 2032 will be presented at the next committee meeting in January 2025, aiming to build consensus.
President Lai emphasized that the Taiwan should have a net-zero emissions goal, and both the central authorities and local governments must establish their own targets to accelerate two key tasks. First, an internal carbon audit must be completed, including assessments of water, electricity, and fuel usage, referencing private sector's practices. The electrification of government-used vehicles is expected to be completed by 2030. Additionally, all public sector buildings, both new and existing, should lead by acquiring "Building Energy Efficiency Labels" and set target years for completion along with annual performance indicators to guide private sector's participation.
President Lai also highlighted the need to enhance green procurement as the second task. In addition to special budgets allocated for green procurement each year, the central government should set an example by gradually increasing the proportion of green procurement in its annual budget. The current target is to reach 10% by 2030, with discussions on potentially achieving even higher percentages.
President Lai pointed out that "energy conservation" is a crucial first step. This requires full commitment from all authorities and consideration of how to effectively use administrative regulations to guide efforts. Collaboration between public and private sectors is essential to create innovative business models that will help achieve the goal of saving 20.6 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity over the next four years.
