TSMC's Taiwan fab operations depend on water, electricity, gases, and specialty chemicals
TSMC's Taiwan fab operations depend on large, continuous volumes of ultra-pure water, electricity, industrial gases, and specialty chemicals, and on the availability of land for fab expansion -- all identified by TSMC as operational risk factors in periods of drought, grid constraint, or supply disruption. These are operational-constraint facts drawn from TSMC's own risk disclosures; no dedicated resource entities (e.g., a distinct water or electricity entity) are created in this graph, and no named utility or municipal water company is asserted as a supplier beyond what TSMC's anonymized Annual Report disclosures support.
