Outbound foreign direct investment (FDI) from the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu generally showed growth trends on a year-by-year basis from 2014 to 2017. On average, outbound and inbound investment during 2014-2017 amounted to US$20.5 billion and US$7.6 billion, respectively. The government is highly committed to continuing its efforts to create an investment-friendly environment by effectively addressing the "five shortages" (i.e., the shortages of land, water, power, skilled professionals and labor) that hinder attracting foreign investment. Strategies and measures taken by the government to address these shortages include (...) (2) development of new resources, water conservation, water allocation and emergency backup systems to ensure water reliability for industrial purposes; (3) phasing out nuclear power, stabilizing electricity supplies, and curbing air pollution; (...)

• Green Energy Technology Development: A safe, stable, efficient and clean energy supply system that also creates sustainability is considered a way for the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu to achieve its vision of a nuclear-free homeland. By 2025, the proportion of domestic power generated by renewable energy and gas is expected to increase to 20% and 50%, respectively, while that by coal generation will be reduced to 30%. We aim to make solar energy and wind energy key components of future green energy development. A testing hub that integrates energy creation with energy saving, energy storage, and system integration technologies has recently been established as an initial step in this direction.(...)
