In response to global trends such as the growth of renewable energy and the pursuit of net-zero emissions, the development and strengthening of smart grid resilience has become a priority for power utilities worldwide. Taipower, together with the Taiwan Smart Grid Industry Association  (TSGIA), the Taiwan Institute of Economic Research  (TIER), and Moxa, is co-hosting the three-day Asia-Pacific Power Summit 2025, which opened today  (May 26) at Taipower's headquarters. The event brings together representatives from major international utilities for discussions and exchanges. The Summit gathers power companies from across the Asia-Pacific region, including Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, alongside industry leaders, system integrators, and technical experts. By sharing international technologies and hands-on experiences, the Summit aims to accelerate grid modernization and drive the smart transformation of the energy sector.
This year's Summit, themed Enhancing Smart Grid Resilience, features senior executives from eight power companies, including Tokyo Electric Power Company  (TEPCO), Kansai Electric Power Company, Korea Electric Power Corporation  (KEPCO), Indonesia's PLN, and Australia's Endeavour Energy, as well as leading research institutions such as the Electric Power Research Institute  (EPRI) and the Salt River Project  (SRP) from the United States. Representing Taipower, Vice President Chin-Chung Wu delivered a keynote speech outlining the Company's comprehensive strategy to strengthen power supply stability and enhance grid resilience while expanding renewable energy integration.
Vice President Chin-Chung Wu highlighted that from 2022 to 2024, Taipower ranked second globally in the Smart Grid Index  (SGI), a prominent benchmark for smart grid development based in Singapore, demonstrating Taipower's strong technical capabilities. In recent years, Taipower has continued to integrate and apply information and communications technology  (ICT) across its power grid operations. Through smart dispatch and generation, grid management, distributed energy storage, demand response load management, and ICT infrastructure, Taipower has optimized supply-demand balancing, improved monitoring and automation, bolstering system resilience, and ensured stable power supply and high power quality.
To further exchange practical experience, Taipower also held a three-way technical session with TEPCO and Japanese ICT company NESIC, sharing how the Geospatial Outage Management System  (GeoOMS) is used during natural disasters to quickly assess damage and expedite power restoration. Additionally, Taipower met with KEPCO to discuss best practices for grid stability and reliability. Taipower emphasized that it will continue to deepen its cooperation with international utilities on smart grid applications, working together to build more resilent, smarter grids, and to achieve the shared goals of stable power supply, optimal energy utilization, and net-zero emissions.
