Environmental Management
Green Building Energy Conservation
In 2022, ABC Group established the Block C Smart Factory at its Yangmei Plant 2 headquarters in Taiwan. This marks the first factory within the Group designed and constructed according to green building standards. The factory was built with the principles of energy efficiency, resource conservation, and low pollution in mind. In 2022, the Block C Smart Factory was recognized as a candidate for green building certification by the Ministry of the Interior.
ABC’s Block C of Yangmei Plant 2 aims to reduce energy consumption and save material usage. It was constructed based on the evaluation of nine major green building indicators. The project excluded biodiversity indicators that did not meet the assessment criteria of one hectare or more. Block C successfully passed a total of five common indicators, including daily energy-saving, water resources, CO2 reduction, indoor environment, and base water conservation. We aim to utilize existing new technologies and innovative thinking to slow down the depletion of Earth's resources. At the same time, we are committed to continuous metal iron powder recycling, making every effort to protect the environment using all available resources at the disposal of the Company.

Goal 7 Affordable and Clean Energy | 7.1 By 2030, ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services. | RT-EE-130a.1 | Energy Management | GRI 302 Energy | 302-1Energy consumption within the organization 302-3Energy intensity | 1. Compared to the baseline year of 2021, the entire group achieved a 4% reduction in electricity intensity (electricity consumption/revenue). 2. Compared to the baseline year of 2021, greenhouse gas emissions in Scope 1 and Scope 2 decreased by 4% compared to the previous year. 3. ABC-ATEC Group's renewable energy utilization rate reached over 5%. | We are progressively planning the use of green energy and continuously expanding our solar photovoltaic systems within our facilities. Additionally, we enhance the utilization of renewable energy throughout the group through initiatives such as energy conservation and direct purchase of green energy. This is aimed at reducing ABC-ATEC Group's greenhouse gas emissions and realizing our green energy transformation. With 2021 as the baseline year, ABC-ATEC Group's electricity consumption in 2031 will be 40% less than the base year, an annual reduction of 4%. |
Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production | 12.5 by 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling, and reuse. | RT-EE-150a.1 RT-EE-150a.2 | Waste Management | GRI 306 Waste | 306-1Waste generation and significant waste-related impacts 306-2Management of significant waste related impacts 306-3Waste Generated | Increase the Group's waste recycling rate by 1~5% compared to the previous year. | We are continually improving our waste recycling and reuse efforts while actively working to reduce waste generation. ABC-ATEC is committed to effective waste disposal management to prevent harmful emissions and minimize environmental damage. |
