Taiwan and EU companies on green technology will produce significant benefits for both sides by fostering the development of cutting-edge sustainable solutions and promoting the growth of the renewable power sector.

A number of European enterprises have demonstrated strong interest in working with local firms in advancing Taiwan’s green energy industry, Tsai said, adding that such tie-ups will also help cultivate wider collaboration in emerging high-tech sectors like biotech and pharmaceuticals, Internet of Things and smart machinery.

Tsai made the remarks while receiving a European Parliament delegation led by Andrey Kovatchev, deputy chairman of the EP-Taiwan Friendship Group, at the Office of the President in Taipei City. The delegation is visiting Dec. 17-22 to gain a better understanding of the country’s economic and political development as well as cross-strait and Taiwan-EU relations.    [FULL  STORY]
