This program was conducted from November 30 to December 7 and December 8 to 14, visiting Germany and South Korea respectively. Through workshops and site visits, the program aimed to explore strategies for climate change adaptation and circular economy practices in these countries, gaining insights into promotion models for achieving net-zero emissions and waste management. The Germany delegation focused on experiences in urban transformation, circular economy, and net-zero policy promotion, while the South Korea delegation emphasized general waste source reduction and resource recycling. Both countries provided valuable examples of environmental innovation to guide Taiwan's policies and sustainable development.
The Germany delegation held workshops and visits in Bonn and Berlin, engaging with key organizations and sites, including ICLEI (Local Governments for Sustainability), the Remondis Lippe Plant (circular economy park), EUREF-Campus (environmental innovation campus), and C2C NGO. The Remondis plant showcased innovative waste recycling technologies that transform waste into usable resources. EUREF-Campus provided examples of energy transition and smart city initiatives, demonstrating Germany's leadership in the fields of circular economy and energy transformation. Additionally, the implementation of EU sustainability directives and carbon pricing further reinforced its efforts toward achieving net-zero goals.
The Korea delegation will conduct its activities in Seoul, primarily visiting locations such as the Mapo Resource Recovery Facility, Jincheon Solar Panel Recycling Center, Goyang City Biomass Energy Recovery Facility, and the Seoul Upcycling Plaza. Korea's volume-based waste fee system and extended producer responsibility (EPR) system have effectively improved recycling rates. Waste-to-energy incineration and biomass biogas generation have significantly reduced the volume of waste sent to final disposal. The Jincheon Waste Solar Panel Recycling Center demonstrates innovative technologies for the recycling and reuse of discarded solar panels. Additionally, the delegation will meet with the Resource Recovery Facilities Bereau of the Climate and Environment Headquarters at Seoul Metropolitan Government to exchange insights on urban waste reduction policies.
