TAIPEI, Taiwan — Taiwan’s Central Taiwan Science Park (CTSP) is attracting another wave of investment as demand for semiconductors, artificial intelligence and energy-efficient technologies continues to reshape the island’s technology sector.
The science park announced three newly approved investment projects worth a combined NT$1.23 billion (about US$38.5 million), following approval by Taiwan’s National Science and Technology Council.
The latest projects bring CTSP’s total number of new investments this year to 13, with combined investment reaching NT$6.53 billion.
The projects cover areas ranging from semiconductor specialty materials to smart and energy-generating building technologies, highlighting how Taiwan’s technology ecosystem is expanding beyond chip manufacturing alone.
Semiconductor Supply Gets a New Boost
One of the largest investments comes from Jing He Science Co., a semiconductor specialty-gas provider that plans to invest NT$950 million to establish a branch in Changhua.
The facility is expected to support advanced wafer-fabrication operations by supplying specialty gases such as anhydrous hydrogen chloride and electronic-grade chlorine.
These materials are used in important semiconductor manufacturing processes, including dry wafer etching, selective epitaxial growth and chamber cleaning.
Jing He said producing the materials locally could improve product quality and supply-chain management while shortening delivery times. The company also plans to provide real-time gas replenishment and technical support for customers.
Solar Windows Could Turn Buildings Into Power Generators
Another project is drawing attention for its potential intersection of construction, renewable energy and artificial intelligence.
Golden Artistan Technology Industrial Co. plans to invest NT$30 million to establish operations in Taichung and develop an AI-powered platform integrating energy-generating technologies into buildings.
The project will incorporate perovskite solar windows and nano-ceramic light-filtering materials.
The concept could allow conventional windows to become transparent power-generating surfaces while maintaining functions such as sound insulation and architectural flexibility.
Golden Artistan originally specialized in high-performance aluminum doors and windows before combining its building technology with high-efficiency perovskite solar cells.
AI Demand Is Fueling Record Growth
The latest investments arrive as Central Taiwan Science Park continues to benefit from accelerating demand for AI-related technologies.
CTSP reported record first-half revenue of NT$643.63 billion, representing a 20.63% increase from the same period last year.
Employment also reached a record 63,111 workers, up 3,836, or 6.47%, year over year.
The figures underline the growing scale of Taiwan’s technology manufacturing ecosystem as companies expand capacity and develop supporting industries around semiconductors, AI and next-generation energy solutions.
With billions of dollars in new investments already approved this year, the latest projects suggest that Central Taiwan’s technology expansion is increasingly extending into areas that connect chips, artificial intelligence and clean-energy infrastructure.
And as demand for AI continues to drive investment, the question now is how far this next wave of technology expansion will reach.
