The Chief Executive of the world’s largest semiconductor manufacturer has admitted that TSMC’s current production capacity is insufficient to meet global demand . To counter this significant disparity, a new report states that the manufacturer is building three additional plants focused on 2nm wafer production, with the initial investment said to be a roaring $28.6 billion. Earlier, two of TSMC’s 2nm local plants were said to have reached their maximum production threshold, without monthly wafer output estimated to target 100,000 units by the end of next year .

Alongside expanding 2nm production, TSMC is also building its A14 facility in Taiwan, as it will eventually gravitate to the newer 1.4nm lithography

So far, TSMC has seven 2nm plants located in Hsinchu Science Park and Kaohsiu
