Shalun, Tainan is the hub of the Central Government’s 5 + 2 industry green energy technology development. Hardware construction in the Shalun Smart Green Energy Science City began in early 2018. Together, the Tainan City Government and National Chiao Tung University witnessed Shalun’s industrial transformation and emergence. The future construction of the Green Energy Science City will be in full swing. Construction of the Academia Sinica in Southern Taiwan, the Tainan Convention and Exhibition Center and access roads in the park began in early 2019. The National Chiao Tung University is the first unit to station in the park. Upon completing the Tainan Campus Chimei Building in 2009, the College of Photonics was established to cultivate talents. Throughout the process, NCTU also witnessed the emergence of Tainan’s Shalun, an important partner in the development of the Green Energy Science City. In coordination with the development needs of the park, NCTU Tainan Campus established the College of Artificial Intelligence in 2019 to promote and strengthen the synergy of the industry, academic and research communities in Tainan.
