In 2023, Taiwan Glass reported total carbon emissions of approximately 196,134,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 158,681,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and approximately 37,640,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, which are indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Comparatively, in 2022, the company’s total emissions were about 206,387,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 175,465,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 39,144,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Taiwan Glass has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint in the future. Overall, Taiwan Glass's emissions data reflects a significant focus on managing its carbon output, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 categories, but further clarity on long-term climate commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.
