Energy management
Environmental energy mix
The Company considers the effective and efficient use of energy. Therefore, we have set internal target for efficient energy management which is calculated as the energy intensity by compare with sales and has action to increasing the efficiency of electricity consumption such as the project to increase the efficiency of the cooling system and installing VSD motors, so we achieve the internal target of 1.22 percent. And the Company also considers the environmental impact of greenhouse gas emissions from electricity production process. Therefore, we have the policy to use 100% of electricity from clean energy, so we install solar panels on the rooftop of the third factory and purchase renewable energy credits (REC) to cover the electricity consumption of the Company.
