The energy cooperation between Taiwan and the UK is mainly on offshore wind power, and also including ocean energy, carbon capture and storage, smart cities, nuclear power, smart grids, green energy saving, green investment and financing, and geothermal within the scope of bilateral energy exchanges.
"The Taiwan-UK Renewable Energy Roundtable Meeting" (the 11th and 18th session was renamed "UK-Taiwan Renewable Energy Conference") has been held annually by the Energy Administration, the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) and the British Office Taipei since 2006. The topics of discussion over the years included FIT, offshore wind energy, ocean energy, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen energy, fuel cells, grid stability and energy storage, etc. Non-governmental units were also invited to join the meetings to promote further cooperation on technological development. During the past few years around 12 memorandums of understanding (MOU) were signed. The cooperation projects include wind turbine control system, wind turbine drive system design, wave power generation equipment evaluation, site analysis, training, and ocean energy test sites, etc.
In order to expand exchanges and cooperation and further enhance bilateral relations in the field of energy, the high-level "Taiwan-UK Energy Dialogue" was set up since 2018, in which both sides exchanged views on overall energy issues and development policies.
