 TECO Electric & Machine has joined hands with Yunlin Tech U. and Taiwan Research Institute, building up a "1+N" Carbon Management Exemplary Team," holding meetings and greenhouse inventory workshops, for which 11 representatives from supply-chain partners and affiliates have been invited for participation. Lin Hung-hsiang, executive chief officer of TECO's ESG promotion office, pointed out that via the "net zero transformation action plan," TECO aims to reduce 1,500 tons of CO2ethis year and push 11 supply-chain partners and affiliates carrying out their product's greenhouse-gas inventory carbon-footprint inventory, thereby establishing the group's carbon-emission platform database, in order to attain net-zero emission for the group by 2050.

 

Lin Yu-cheng, director of Yunlin Tech U.'s sustainability and value management center, also notes that with the assistance of professional management team the university will introduce ISO 14064 and ISO 14067, exploring carbon-abatement hotspots and formulate low-carbon transformation method, thereby helping TECO and 11 supply-chain partners in their carbon abatement.

 

Due to limited resources and insufficient ability, majority of Taiwan's small and medium-sized small and medium-sized enterprises have been slow in pushing net-zero emission. Su Han-bang, vice president of Taiwan Research Institute, expressed gratitude for TECO inviting 11-supply chain partners to take part in the 1+NT carbon management team and join the effort pushing carbon management solution, thereby exhibiting their resolve in carbon abatement.
