Why a Commitment to Supply Chain Award?The UK Renewables Committee is a group of UK businesses actively committed to a successful renewable energy sector in Taiwan. As a fundamental pillar of the industry’s sustainable development, we recognise the need to support the growth of a skilled and globally competitive domestic supply chain in achieving the Taiwanese Government’s ambitions to transition to Green Energy.

This award has been developed to recognise a company currently operating in Taiwan’s renewable energy sector that has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to achieving this goal and the development of Taiwan’s domestic supply chain over the past twelve months. The award is not dependent on a company’s size and is open to both Taiwanese and/or foreign companies. It will not only consider commitments to investment in the industry, but also the sustainability of the Company’s initiatives and the broader social impact on local stakeholders and communities.
