Chapter Summary

In 2024, WPG Holdings continued strengthening climate governance, resource management, and the development of clean technologies to actively respond to global Net Zero goals and the industry’s low-carbon transformation. The Group completed GHG inventory and assurance for Scopes 1 and 2 across all operational sites and, for the first time, included all Scope 3 categories, disclosing total emissions of 45,503.73 tCO₂e, with 89.98% third-party assured. It also initiated its first service carbon footprint inventory, assessing per-ton emissions from four major logistics centers, and launched reduction actions focused on material acquisition. A plan to introduce Internal Carbon Pricing (ICP) is underway, progressively covering key emitting sites to integrate carbon risk into operational decisions. After completing the comprehensive GHG inventory, WPG Holdings set its “Greenhouse Gas Reduction Targets and Action Plans” covering key sites including Nangang, Shenzhen, and Linkou. The plan includes enhancing energy efficiency through energy management systems, evaluating replacement of outdated equipment, and continuing the adoption of electric vehicles, steadily progressing toward emission reduction goals.

Additionally, WPG Holdings is continually expanding its environmental data collection to encompass a broader range of operational regions. This effort aims to enhance the completeness of our sustainability information. Concurrently, we're setting reduction targets to ensure effective environmental management. For waste reduction, our Taiwan office aims for a cumulative annual reduction of at least 2% in waste volume, while our logistics warehouses target a 2% annual reduction. Regarding water consumption, our Taiwan office areas achieved an impressive 9.05% reduction in annual water usage, and our logistics warehouses saw a 14.0% decrease. WPG Holdings is also utilizing data analytics as the foundation for our paper management, which led to 72,568 kilograms of recovered cardboard. Furthermore, our logistics warehouses achieved an annual waste reduction of 2.26%, and we're continually deepening our efforts in resource segregation and food waste recycling.  

Biodiversity was introduced as a new sustainability topic in 2024. A biodiversity hotspot assessment was conducted for six major operational sites in Taiwan, with none located in hotspot zones. Nonetheless, biodiversity considerations were integrated into site selection and green space management. Initiatives such as habitat creation (“One Bird, One Tree”), tree adoption, and employee awareness campaigns were implemented.

A total of 150 cleantech solutions were developed in 2024, driving a 43% revenue increase, with green components contributing 4.52% of revenue. These solutions span seven key applications, including new energy, battery manufacturing and distribution, electric vehicles, smart measurement, and pollution control. Looking ahead, WPG Holdings will align with TCFD and other international frameworks to expand renewable energy use, refine carbon management, and co-develop an innovative and sustainable green value chain with industry partners.
