The rapid evolution of semiconductor technology has promoted the rise of emerging technologies such as AI. ITRI points out that information and communication (ICT) products with semiconductors as the core can bring significant carbon reduction contributions to the world through structural impacts on economic operations and behavioral changes. It is estimated that Taiwan's semiconductors can help save 3,638 million yuan in global electricity in 2030. Billions of degrees.

ITRI Obstetrics International Institute published a special article in the new monthly magazine of the Taiwan Semiconductor Industry Association, "In the AI Era, Taiwan's Semiconductor Industry Contributes to Global Energy Saving and Carbon Reduction", exploring the energy consumption and energy saving of ICT products, as well as the role Taiwan can play in assisting The world moves towards sustainability.

The International Institute of Obstetrics and Commerce of the Industrial Research Institute pointed out that with the support of the development of chip technology, artificial intelligence (AI) technology has achieved rapid breakthroughs and created unlimited imagination space for innovative applications in the future world.

Looking to the future, Obstetrics International said that AI is moving from the cloud to the edge, accelerating the advent of an era in which everything is AI. With the popularization of AI, the demand for AI computing power and storage has increased sharply. Taiwan's future development is expected to be based on its international competitive advantages in semiconductors, servers, memory and other ICT industries.

Obstetrics International pointed out that in the face of the growing demand for computing power and memory due to the popularization of AI applications, the semiconductor industry must not only develop new materials and architecture designs to improve computing power and reduce power consumption during the design and manufacturing process, but also must Accelerate the fusion of "Carbon Handprint".

The core concept of "Carbon Fingerprint" is to upgrade "the company's own energy conservation and emission reduction" to "the company assists customers in reducing their carbon footprint", creating carbon reduction influence, shaping a positive cycle of sustainable expansion, and taking more positive actions Together we can achieve the goal of global net zero.

According to Obstetrics International, Taiwan is expected to become an important supplier of software and hardware in the future AI world by virtue of its competitive advantages in the ICT industry. While pursuing gross domestic product (GDP) performance, we must pay attention to gross ecosystem production (GEP), take into consideration the costs of natural resources and the ecological environment, and introduce emerging digital technology green solutions into business operations to fully respond to the global The natural goal is to ensure that while seizing new business opportunities in AI, we are environmentally friendly and co-prosperous with the earth.

Obstetrics International pointed out that ICT products with semiconductors as the core will bring significant energy saving and carbon reduction contributions to the world through the structural impact on economic operations and behavioral changes. It is estimated that the application of electronic products with semiconductors as the core will help the world save 3.91 trillion kilowatt hours of electricity consumption in 2030. The advantages of Taiwan Semiconductors can help the world save 363.8 billion kilowatt hours of electricity.

Obstetrics and Technology International stated that TSMC is a representative company in the world's advanced chip manufacturing, and the value of its chip products accounts for approximately 64% of the value of Taiwan's products. Based on this estimate, TSMC products can help the world save approximately 235.4 billion kilowatt hours of electricity in 2030.

Based on estimates of the growth and revenue proportion of TSMC's four major platforms, high-performance computing, smartphones, Internet of Things, automotive and other products, Obstetrics International pointed out that the potential energy-saving contribution of TSMC's high-performance computing products in 2030 can reach 134.7 billion kilowatt-hours. Compared with the electricity consumption of high-performance computing-related processes and equipment, the carbon reduction factor can reach 6.81 times, making it the most potential energy-saving chip application.
