Taiwan accelerates land development to support TSMC’s Southern expansion

As the Southern Taiwan Science Park (STSP) becomes more saturated with semiconductor industrial land, the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) is accelerating land development to meet TSMC’s expansion needs. A comprehensive pollution remediation plan has been implemented with an investment of NT$57.011 billion (US$1.8 billion). On November 5, 2025, the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) committee approved the project to enter its second phase. The project will transform heavy industrial land into a green, sustainable ecological science park by reactivating contaminated land.
