As a facility manager in Taiwan’s microelectronics manufacturing sector, you’re facing new ESG regulations and a looming global copper deficit. Here’s what you need to know and how to respond effectively.
Understanding the Regulatory Landscape
1. Climate Change Response Act (CCRA):
This act sets net-zero GHG emissions by 2050 as Taiwan’s long-term goal. Ensure your facility aligns with this mandate and implements robust GHG reduction strategies.
2. ESG Reporting Requirements:
Listed companies must submit annual ESG reports following guidelines set by the GRI, SASB, and TCFD. Stay compliant by integrating comprehensive ESG data into your reporting processes.
3. Insights on Carbon Trading/Pricing:
The influence of carbon trading and pricing is critical in managing GHG emissions. Taiwan’s evolving carbon trading schemes can provide economic incentives for reducing emissions. Facilities should engage in carbon trading to offset emissions and invest in technologies that reduce carbon footprints. For more detailed information, you can refer to the article on carbon trading and Taiwan’s Ministry of Environment.
By understanding and addressing these challenges, you can ensure your facility remains compliant, efficient, and sustainable in the face of new regulations and market shifts. Embrace these changes as opportunities to innovate and lead in the microelectronics manufacturing industry.
