J&V Energy Technology said its first-half 2026 results were lifted by growing energy storage projects and green power trading, with consolidated revenue reaching NT$3.498 billion (US$108.74 million). The Taiwan-based renewable energy group said gross profit rose 67% year over year to NT$570 million, while operating profit increased 195% to NT$109 million.

Century Iron and Steel Industrial (CIS) and Century Wind Power (CWP) held a joint investor conference on August 13. Driven by a significant increase in the revenue contribution from offshore wind foundation engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects beginning in 2026, CWP said it expects revenue to reach new highs in both 2026 and 2027, with profit in 2026 also poised to set a record.

The "Net Zero City: International Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Technology Seminar on New Low-Carbon Power Solutions for AI and Semiconductor Industries," jointly hosted by the Taiwan-US Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage Industries Promotion Alliance (TUCA) and the Taiwan Institute of Economic Research (TIER), convened on August 12 in Kaohsiung. The event focused on leveraging Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies to support the low-carbon transition of the semiconductor and AI sectors amid surging electricity demand.

Seetel reported strong momentum in 2026 as large-scale energy storage projects and battery module shipments lifted revenue, while the Taiwan-based energy systems company moved to broaden its footprint in the US and Australia. The firm said its first seven months of revenue reached nearly NT$8.2 billion (US$254.4 million), supported by demand tied to AI data centers, virtual power plants and energy infrastructure.

Chinese authorities have announced that sodium-ion batteries will be exempt from consumption tax from September 2026 through the end of 2028, while lithium batteries will once again gradually face a 2% to 4% consumption tax. The new policy creates a 28-month "lithium-sodium tax gap" of about 2% to 4%, accelerating commercialization of sodium-ion batteries and drawing previously cautious downstream buyers into the market.

AI-driven power demand is surging, and Delta Electronics Chairman Ping Cheng said microgrids and energy resilience are becoming the next key battleground for AI data centers and the broader electrification push. Speaking at the Delta Sustainable AI Summit, he said that, for the first time in 2026, global electrification and net-zero emissions will be discussed at the same level during UN climate talks, making Delta's business transformation path clearer.
