TSMC plans to raise prices for its 3nm and 5nm process manufacturing by 3% to 8% next year. This decision is driven by the need to cover rising costs and maintain its impressive 53% gross profit margin. Additionally, prices for TSMC's CoWoS (Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate) advanced packaging technology will also increase. This price hike comes at a time when TSMC's 3nm and 5nm production lines are operating at full capacity. Despite the price increases, chip design firms like Apple, Nvidia, and Qualcomm reportedly have no alternatives for advanced production because of TSMC's dominant position in the market. However, these firms have expressed concerns, noting that the economic recovery has not been strong enough to easily absorb these higher costs.

Donghua University’s research on photoelectric fields has obvious carbon reduction benefits Donghua University has established a flux tower in a 66-hectare solar photovoltaic field in Zhaofeng Section, Hualien County, to assess the environmental impacts of electric fields. Research findings indicate that while the conversion of forest land to solar fields reduces carbon absorption due to tree removal, the power generated can offset 550 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions per hectare annually. The study compares emissions at the solar field, which released 7 metric tons of CO2, with Da Nong Da Fu Pingdi Forest Park that absorbed 25 metric tons. The solar installation generates an average of 1.13 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per hectare per year, contributing to fossil fuel replacement. Water retention is also improved in the photovoltaic field, with annual evaporation measurements indicating that it retains more rainwater compared to forests. Continuous monitoring systems are in place to study ecological interactions, revealing the presence of various wild animals, including several bird species. Further research is planned to analyze the energy budget in relation to atmospheric conditions through ongoing collaborations with institutions like the University of Michigan. #MotiveAsia #Taiwan https://lnkd.in/gDtkjhYr

Converting CO 2 into fuels and chemicals using electricity, also known as CO 2 electrochemical conversion, is a promising method to reduce emissions. This process allows us to use the carbon captured from industries and the atmosphere and turn it into a resource that we would normally get from fossil fuels. https://lnkd.in/gYmz4xDa

Solid-state lithium batteries made in Wuhan are about to be unveiled The pilot production line of solid-state lithium/sodium ion battery key technology and industrialization project at Wuhan Future Institute received China's National Compulsory Product Certification (3C Certification), indicating that the project products have passed quality and safety assessments for mass production. Led by Professor Guo Xin from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, the research project took 26 years to develop. The innovative solid-state battery replaces traditional organic electrolytes with solid electrolytes, enhancing safety, performance, and temperature range of the battery. With a full-process production line, the project has exceeded expectations by reaching battery production in half the time. Solid-state batteries developed by the project offer high safety, wide operating temperature range (-40C to 120C), high energy density, and fast charging capabilities. The solid-state batteries underwent rigorous testing, including steel needle punctures, boiling water, freezing with dry ice, and cutting with scissors - and still maintained good performance. Furthermore, solid-state lithium batteries will soon be produced by Solid State Ion Energy Technology (Wuhan) Co., Ltd, expanding into consumer electronic products and new energy vehicles. Next, the project team will evaluate cost differences, product yield, and consistency to overcome final industrialization bottlenecks and gear up for full-scale production. Since its establishment in 2022, Wuhan Future Institute has focused on piloting cutting-edge projects based on industry needs with impressive progress. #MotiveAsia #China https://lnkd.in/gRCyA2tD

The newly launched "Biomedical Innovation Cross-Domain Collaboration Platform" is a significant step towards developing a vital ecosystem for biomedical startups. This initiative, aligned with Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI)(工業技術研究院, 工研院)'s 2030 vision, aims to cultivate a healthier Taiwan and catalyze cross-border innovation in the biotech sector. The platform focuses on providing startups with four key resources: #funding, #technology, #talent, and #MarketAccess. Through strategic collaborations with venture capitalists, industry leaders, and international corporations, it seeks to accelerate innovation, facilitate product development, and expand global market reach. This initiative not only supports startups in their growth but also aims to position Taiwan as a leader in the global biotech industry.

Food poisoning is never pleasant, so the rapid detection of disease-causing E. coli and other bacteria is crucial in preventing outbreaks of foodborne illness. An Osaka Metropolitan University research team has created a handheld device for quick on-site detection. Led by Professor Hiroshi Shiigi of the Graduate School of Engineering, the team experimented with a biosensor that can simultaneously detect multiple disease-causing bacterial species within an hour.   Rapid, simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria achieved with handheld sensor https://lnkd.in/e5wRW8_f Paper Information Journal: Analytical Chemistry Title: Simultaneous Electrochemical Detection of Multiple Bacterial Species Using Metal-Organic Nanohybrids DOI: 10.1021/acs.analchem.3c04587 Author(s): Satohiro Itagaki, Akihiro Nakao, Shogo Nakamura, Masashi Fujita, Shigeki Nishii, Yojiro Yamamoto, Yasuhiro Sadanaga, and Hiroshi Shiigi Published: 03 February 2024 URL: https://lnkd.in/eJ35f4e5

"In the first half of 2024, 28.6% of the group's new customers came from the health and senior care ecosystem, and customers entitled to service benefits in the health and senior care ecosystem accounted for over 68% of Ping An Life’s new business value (NBV)," Guo Michael, Co-CEO of PING AN Group, shared with us in an interview. Guo highlighted that the insurance industry's future development will centre on the integration of "insurance + service." By enhancing service offerings, customers can better understand the value of insurance. Moreover, insurance can address customer needs more effectively, especially in areas such as healthcare, wellness and elder care.

IMPORTANT UPDATES on Results of Taiwan Round 3.2 Ranking no 1: Shinfox 2:Synera Renewable Energy 3:Orsted 4:CIP 5:Corio 6.Infravest Although the EA hasn’t officially released the results, multiple outlets confirm them. Recent leaks were accurate, with two local champions taking the top spots. Shinfox, a major player and EPC with their own vessels, is new to offshore wind. Their vessels are now in Taiwan for the TPCII project, so we’ll soon see their capabilities. Synera Renewable Energy, formerly Swancor, was the original Taiwanese "local champion" developer, now owned by a US fund. There’s a twist: Synera Renewable Energy (SRE) and Orsted have overlapping projects, putting Orsted at risk. All bidders opted for zero bids, with rankings based on localization points. If capacity issues arise due to overlaps, there might be a “Round 3.2 part 2,” though this is speculative. Infravest, a Taiwanese company with a German boss, is back after selling their offshore department to wpd (now Skyborn). They’ll likely need a partner to succeed. This round highlights the rise of local developers, especially Shinfox, which has strong government ties and financial resources.
