Taiwan's Energy, Chip, and Food Imports: A National-Security Concern
TL;DR
Taiwan faces a significant national security risk as it relies on imports for 97% of its energy needs, leaving it vulnerable to supply disruptions and geopolitical tensions. The country is heavily dependent on fossil fuel imports, particularly from the Middle East, which poses risks to its energy security. To mitigate this risk, Taiwan is actively seeking to diversify its energy sources and increase its reliance on renewable energy.
