As the world faces urgent climate challenges, governments worldwide are pledging to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, positioning clean energy at the core of energy transitions. Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, known for their renewable and low-pollution attributes, have emerged as a crucial pillar in global net-zero strategies. However, as the solar market expands rapidly, a wave of PV module decommissioning is emerging. Recycling has become an increasingly pressing environmental issue. According to estimates from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the cumulative volume of end-of-life solar panels awaiting recycling will reach 730 million tons by 2050, creating an urgent and massive processing demand.In response, TSGC has introduced its innovative PV Circulator solution, featuring a unique physical, chemical-free, and heat-free dismantling technology rarely found globally. The solution enables complete separation of aluminum frames, glass, junction boxes, solar cells, back sheets and EVA layers - achieving a 99.3% material recovery rate. In recent years, TSGC has partnered with multiple recycled-materials companies to establish a circular materials ecosystem. The company will also showcase a breakthrough hydrogen-production technology - using recovered crystalline-silicon solar cells - at CES 2026, signaling its ambition to capture emerging opportunities in the global sustainable economy.TSGC Co-Founder and Distinguished Professor at the Department of Greenergy, National University of Tainan, Dr. Yao-Hsiang Fu, noted that current industry recycling technologies remain limited. Most recyclers remove only aluminum frames and wiring, while other components - difficult to separate at high purity - are typically incinerated in brick kilns and repurposed as tile materials. This results in the loss of high-value materials such as silver and silicon. "A single solar module contains approximately 0.6 kg of silicon and 4.8 grams of silver, representing far greater economic value than most people imagine," Fu emphasized. TSGC has already helped its partners obtain Taiwan's first license for PV module recycling and repurposing, marking a significant milestone for Taiwan's solar recycling industry.Rising ESG demands fuel the global sustainable economyTraditional PV recycling methods heavily rely on high-temperature thermal processing or chemical dissolution, which require significant energy consumption and may generate toxic gases and wastewater. Furthermore, these methods struggle to recover high-purity silicon wafers, silver, and copper in forms suitable for reuse. As a result, California has explicitly banned the disposal of solar panels through incineration or landfilling, accelerating the search for more environmentally friendly and economically viable recycling pathways.In 2024, TSGC received approval from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), becoming the seventh company in California certified for solar panel recycling - and the only company capable of fully dismantling and recovering all materials. TSGC is currently in discussions with the six existing recyclers in the state. By transferring collected PV modules to TSGC for processing, these companies will gain significantly higher material-recovery revenue than through conventional methods.Fu emphasized that as global sustainability awareness continues to rise, carbon-related regulations are rapidly evolving. For example, the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) already requires imported products to demonstrate low - or negative-carbon footprints. Products without transparent material sourcing and emissions data will struggle to enter international markets. Therefore, PV recycling is no longer merely an environmental solution - it is becoming a strategic driver of circular-economy development and international trade competitiveness. Identifying this pivotal moment, TSGC is positioned to lead the industry with a complete system for material recovery, reuse, and hydrogen production.High mobility represents TSGC's key advantage in entering the US marketTSGC has partnered with Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA) to strengthen its global footprint through participation in major international exhibitions and increased media exposure. The company has received recognition at events such as CES in the United States and VivaTech in France, boosting its global visibility and indirectly contributing to the approval of its solar panel recycling license issued by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC).Fu noted that the United States hosts numerous utility-scale solar farms, many of which are approaching their 20-year operational lifespan - making solar panel recycling an imminent challenge. The TSGC PV Circulator offers exceptional mobility, allowing for on-site disassembly and material separation directly at the project location, significantly reducing transportation costs and providing a major competitive edge in the U.S. market.Looking ahead, TSGC will continue leveraging Taiwan's green energy R&D capabilities and global collaboration opportunities to further expand the applications of recycled solar materials across the energy, chemical, and green manufacturing sectors, strengthening the company's strategic role in the global sustainable economy.Credit: TSGC

The platform is designed to help global brands make measurable progress toward carbon-neutrality commitments, while expanding Renouvo's reach into the US consumer electronics supply chain.Founder and CEO Chris Huang noted that the company is honored to have been selected by TTA to participate in CES. He observed that major US consumer electronics brands are accelerating their ESG initiatives, actively seeking new materials with negative-carbon or low-carbon attributes - whether for device enclosures or protective packaging components. In recent years, several international brands have approached Renouvo for collaboration, aiming to reduce carbon emissions at the material source and achieve verifiable sustainability outcomes.Unique hydrogen-bonding patent and third-party verification strengthen material reliabilityRenouvo has long focused on plant-based materials, with a core mission of converting agricultural residues and biomass waste into market-ready low-carbon materials and plastic-free solutions. Beyond its own line of eco-friendly tableware, the company develops low-carbon and carbon-neutral materials for brand partners in the EU, Australia, and other regions, facilitating real-world adoption of circular-economy practices.According to Huang, although the number of companies offering recycled or "eco-friendly" materials has grown rapidly, truly durable, safe, and internationally deployable low-carbon materials remain scarce. Renouvo distinguishes itself by using agricultural waste - such as bagasse and spent coffee grounds - as primary feedstock, enhanced by its proprietary hydrogen-bonding technology. This innovation addresses the common limitations of plant-based materials, including softening and insufficient durability, while simultaneously delivering carbon-capture and carbon-sequestration benefits that reduce emissions at the source.To strengthen material credibility, Renouvo partners extensively with third-party verification bodies to establish comprehensive carbon footprint (CFP) reports, quantifying emissions across the entire product life cycle - from raw materials to manufacturing and final shipment. These transparent, verifiable datasets enable Renouvo's materials to be adopted in international supply chains and serve as a reliable foundation for brands evaluating ESG performance. Huang emphasized that the ability to provide clear, measurable carbon-reduction data is one of Renouvo’s most significant differentiators in the global materials marketplace.Negative-carbon materials integrated with AI strengthen adoption efficiency, with a focus on the US marketA major highlight of Renouvo's return to CES in 2026 is the debut of a new platform that integrates its carbon-negative material technology with AI. The platform analyzes key parameters - including material composition, process-level carbon emissions, durability, and cost structure - providing brands with comprehensive evaluation data prior to adoption. This significantly shortens material verification cycles and accelerates the transition from testing to mass production.Renouvo has participated in the TTA competition for two consecutive years and continues to seek CES exhibition opportunities, driven by the US market's increasingly stringent sustainability requirements for materials. Major US brands now demand verifiable evidence of carbon-neutral commitments and transparent supply-chain metrics. By leveraging visibility from CES and TTA, Renouvo aims to expand collaboration with leading US technology and consumer electronics companies, accelerate global adoption of negative-carbon materials, and position itself as a key partner in supporting multinational brands' sustainability strategies.Looking ahead, Renouvo plans to continue enhancing its AI-enabled materials platform, expand its carbon-footprint database, and strengthen customized service capabilities. The company's objective is to become a strategic partner for North America's top green-materials supply chains within the next three years. Huang emphasized that sustainability cannot remain at the level of slogans or declarations - it must be verifiable and quantifiable. Only when brands can clearly track and measure carbon-reduction outcomes will sustainable materials become mainstream, which is the core message Renouvo aims to deliver worldwide.Renouvo's diverse product portfolio.

The system integrates precision mechanics and optical modules to automate cell capture, staining, and imaging. AI-driven image analysis then identifies and differentiates cancer cells from other cell types, enabling clinicians to execute targeted cell isolation, image interpretation, and downstream diagnostic analysis directly from blood samples.Nano CAST Supports the Full Cancer Care CycleAs semiconductor processes continue to advance, complex biochemical analyses that once required large laboratory setups can now be executed through highly integrated semiconductor biochips - making real-time testing more accessible and scalable. While genomic sequencing remains the most common application of such semiconductor-enabled medical technologies, HUA TEC is one of the few Taiwanese companies to extend semiconductor-based diagnostics into protein and biomarker analysis, particularly demonstrating strong breakthroughs in the field of liquid biopsy for oncology.Huang explained that Nano CAST is built upon two core components: the Cell Reveal Series and the CMS 200. The Cell Reveal Series uses semiconductor biochip technology to isolate specific or abnormal cells, forming nanoscale structures through plasma treatment, etching, and chemical modification that significantly enhance cell capture efficiency. The CMS 200 serves as the AI-driven imaging system that rapidly and objectively interprets captured cell and tissue images.Together, the system covers the complete clinical pathway of cancer care - from early detection of rare circulating tumor cells in blood, to monitoring treatment response, to identifying minimal residual disease (MRD) after therapy. By providing clinicians with earlier, more precise, and more actionable insights into disease progression, Nano CAST strengthens decision-making across the continuum of cancer management.TTA's High-Impact Global Pavilion Strategy Helps Drive Expansion into Central Asia, Europe, and the USAfter achieving notable milestones in Taiwan and obtaining BSI ISO 13485:2016 certification for medical device quality management, HUA TEC has accelerated its international expansion in recent years, establishing a presence in Thailand, Singapore, Japan, and Hong Kong. The company plans to further extend its footprint into Central Asia in 2026 as part of its broader global medical collaboration strategy.Huang emphasized that HUA TEC's consecutive participation in CES is driven by the strong curatorial and matchmaking capabilities of Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA). TTA's expertise in pavilion design, international outreach, and cross-border business facilitation significantly elevates the global visibility of Taiwanese startups. This enables companies such as HUA TEC to directly engage with major medical distributors, technology corporations, and investment groups across Europe and the United States, accelerating their path to market adoption.He stressed that Nano CAST demonstrates proven clinical performance, verifiable technical foundations, and scalability for commercial manufacturing - making CES the most important launchpad for HUA TEC's entry into the US and European markets. Through CES, the company aims to pursue strategic partnerships, initiate local clinical validations, and expand cross-border commercial activities, ultimately establishing a solid international presence.

In recent years, digital twin technology has quickly gained traction across industries. With the rapid maturation of AI and big data analytics, enterprises can now build highly accurate, real-time synchronized virtual models, enabling predictive maintenance, process optimization, and other benefits that were once difficult to realize. MetAI, invited by Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA) to join CES 2026, will showcase its proprietary AI - and 3D-driven MetGen digital twin platform, formally signaling its intent to capture opportunities in the US smart warehousing sector.MetAI co-founder and CEO Daniel Yu noted that the US is home to some of the world's largest warehousing market, driven by digitalization efforts from major retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, and Costco. As such, the US has become MetAI's primary target for overseas expansion. "We are honored to receive TTA's invitation to exhibit at CES 2026," Yu said, expressing appreciation for TTA's comprehensive support - from pre-show preparation and customer matchmaking to presentation guidance - which has strengthened the company's confidence in entering the US market.AI fused with 3D technology : Digital twins generated in minutesFounded in 2023, MetAI focuses on developing MetGen, the first AI-native, domain-specific generative platform designed for real-to-sim and sim-to-real integration. By leveraging its proprietary AI and 3D synthesis architecture, MetGen automatically converts traditional CAD and 2D design files into SimReady (simulation-ready) 3D digital twin environments. The platform also incorporates AI, 3D simulation, physics modeling, and automation control logic, enabling users in warehousing, advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, and automation equipment to design, validate, and simulate workflows in a virtual environment before real-world deployment.MetAI further supports the creation of large-scale, high-fidelity synthetic datasets within the digital twin environment, giving AI models access to virtually unlimited training material. This capability accelerates production-line design and product development, while enabling enterprises to derive optimized strategies in simulation before applying them in real operations.By integrating NVIDIA Omniverse with MetAI's proprietary generative models, complex digital twin environments that once required months or even years to build can now be automatically generated in minutes, effectively resolving one of the industry's most persistent adoption barriers: excessively long deployment timelines. The company currently focuses on three key application areas - smart warehousing, semiconductors, and data centers - and completed a US$4 million seed round in 2025, backed by leading investors including Kenmec Mechanical and NVIDIA, making it one of the few Taiwan startups to receive a direct strategic investment from NVIDIA.According to Yu, traditional digital twin development relies heavily on manual data processing, resulting in implementation cycles that may stretch across several months or even longer than a year. Even with newer solutions emerging, model inaccuracies often lead to costly revisions. "MetAI combines AI with 3D generation to directly interpret 2D blueprints such as CAD or BIM files and automatically construct complete 3D twin environments," Yu explained.This approach reduces the typical modeling workload - from hundreds or thousands of hours - to just a few minutes, while delivering high consistency and zero structural error. It enables companies to rapidly plan production lines, build virtual sandboxes for robot training or logistics flow optimization, and significantly boost deployment efficiency.Establishing a US headquarters to capture smart warehousing and advanced manufacturing opportunitiesDespite being a relatively young company, MetAI has quickly secured partnerships with several high-profile enterprises, thanks to the uniqueness and technical depth of its solutions. In addition to working with TSMC, MetAI is collaborating with Kenmec to fully reconstruct the Chief Global Logistics's smart logistics center into a virtual environment, creating a highly realistic digital twin featuring physics-accurate modeling, executable control logic, and AI-driven optimization capabilities.According to Yu, the rise of AI has prompted Taiwanese startups to shift their mindset - no longer focusing solely on the domestic market but aiming directly at the world's largest and most innovation-driven arenas. "The US has exceptionally strong demand for smart warehousing solutions. We are actively preparing to establish our US team and headquarters, which will include a local team, customer support, and a technical service center. This will place us closer to key customers and significantly enhance our ability to execute in the North American market," Yu said.Yu added that MetAI will continue to strengthen its real-to-sim and sim-to-real capabilities, while expanding integration with a broader ecosystem of automation hardware. The company aims to build an end-to-end twin platform that spans design, simulation, and deployment.
