2025 Net Zero Tech International Contest

Contest Background

Cultivate talent for Net Zero Emissions and promote Taiwan's goal of achieving Net Zero Emissions by 2050 through contest.

Over 130 countries globally have declared their commitment to achieving "Net Zero Emissions" by 2050. Taiwan, in March 2022, announced its "2050 Net Zero Emissions" framework, which includes five major pathways (Buildings, Transportation, Industry, Electricity, and Negative Carbon Technologies), four transformation strategies (Energy, Industry, Lifestyle, and Society), and two foundational pillars (Technological Research and Development, Climate Legislation). A total of 12 key strategies were proposed, among which nine—wind power, solar power, hydrogen energy, forward-looking energy, power systems and storage, energy saving, carbon capture utilization and storage, electrification and decarbonization of transportation, resource circulation and zero waste, natural carbon sinks, and net zero green living—are recognized as critical strategies for advancing net zero and negative emission technologies through technological innovation.

National Taiwan University and TECO Technology Foundation, driven by the goal of Net Zero Emissions, jointly organize the "Net Zero Tech International Contest" to fulfill their social responsibility of cultivating talent.
Designed with a dual-track structure comprising the Taiwan Contest and the International Contest, the contest aims to promote global university students and faculty engagement in zero-carbon technology research and innovation. Through this high-profile international contest and platform, Taiwan aspires to establish itself as a hub for net zero technology exchange, talent development, and industrial advancement on the global stage.

Objectives

“Net Zero Tech International Contest” initiative aims to cultivate talent, enhance industry-academia collaboration, promote global exchanges in net zero technologies, and improve the dissemination of net zero knowledge. It plans to establish professional prestige and international influence through the following measures:
I. 
Provide substantial competition prizes to support university professors' research in net zero and negative emission technologies, encouraging young scholars to engage in research and technology development.
II. 
Establish a "Net Zero" platform to facilitate technical exchanges and knowledge sharing among industry, government, academia, and research sectors.
III. 
Disseminate net zero knowledge to foster societal consensus and encourage concrete actions in energy conservation and environmental protection.
IV. 
Implement the four key transformation strategies—energy, industry, lifestyle, and society—to advance toward the vision of sustainable development.
