| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 科技管理研究所 === 94 === The gaseous waste which is discharged by petrochemical energy is the main reason for the Greenhouse effects that cause climate changes around the world. The present average temperature of the earth is higher than that of 20 years ago. The environmental changes occurring at the moment is serious and will increase the likelihood of a great ecological calamity. Thus, the development and application of the renewable energy are important goals humanity must focus more on in order to live on. Mankind should make progressive strides to increase the annual usage of renewable energy. Because the photovoltaic (PV) system protects the environment, is easily installed, and is a maturing technology, it has become the primary choice which advanced countries have selected as their renewable energy source. Many governments have plans to promote and subsidize the PV system. Solar cell technology is similar to the technology for the semiconductors. This research focuses on how the PV industry utilizes the foundation, the electric and electronic technology, and the R&D capabilities which have been established by semiconductor industry, to develop the localized core competencies in Taiwan. In the past, literatures reviews have discussed core competencies that have been focused on definitions, concepts, characteristics, and key factors. However, the researches of the past have not discussed why some core competencies belong to some specific industries in locations. This research proposes how localized core competencies are the links between core competencies and local environments. This research establishes the structure of localized core competencies through literature reviews and interviews with experts in the PV industry. It also uses Michael Porter’s diamond model, Andrew Grove’s six force analysis, value chain analysis, and SWOT analysis to discuss the following localized core competencies: 「knowledge, human resource and experience」, 「cluster effects」, 「strategy alliance」, 「brand and reputation」. The research also suggests several industry development strategies based on that structure. The conclusion proposes several competitive strategies which can be used to develop unique competitive advantages in Taiwan in order to establish a unique position in the global PV industry for Taiwan.
