2050 Net-Zero Roadmap

In alignment with the IPCC 1.5°C scenario, which aims to limit the global average temperature increase to within 1.5°C by the end of this century, the Company has set a 2050 Net-Zero target. Using 2021 as the base year, the Company commits to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2050.
To reach this goal, the Company has established an annual emissions reduction target of 5% per year, with continuous tracking of decarbonization performance to ensure effective implementation of GHG reduction measures.
(This policy applies to the parent company and all subsidiaries within the Group.)

 

TAYA Group Decarbonization Strategy

The Group has identified three major emission sources, which together account for more than 97% of total Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions:
  • Indirect emissions from purchased electricity
  • Fugitive emissions of SF₆
  • Stationary combustion emissions from natural gas

These have been designated as the Group’s primary decarbonization targets.
Electricity emissions represent the largest source in the wire and cable manufacturing process. The Group reduces electricity demand through energy-efficient equipment upgrades, replacement of outdated machinery, and increased use of renewable energy.
SF₆ emissions arise from calibration processes of cable jointing equipment at Allied Machinery. Improvements in calibration equipment and pipeline systems are prioritized to reduce SF₆ leakage.
Natural gas emissions stem from Da Zhan’s use of natural gas to heat and melt electrolytic copper plates. The Company is currently evaluating carbon capture and reuse solutions to reduce emissions.
 

Internal Carbon Pricing

Beginning in 2024, the parent company has adopted a Shadow Carbon Pricing mechanism as a tool for assessing carbon emission costs. By incorporating carbon costs into business decision-making, the Company aims to drive greater decarbonization actions and investments.
The internal carbon price references the rate announced by Taiwan’s Ministry of Environment at the 6th Carbon Fee Rate Review Meeting:
2025 carbon price: NT$300 per metric ton
2030 carbon price: NT$1,200–1,800 per metric ton
The Company will regularly review and adjust the shadow carbon price to reflect market conditions and regulatory changes, ensuring its effectiveness as a risk management tool in long-term decarbonization planning.
The purpose of internal carbon pricing is to internalize carbon costs in decision-making. No actual internal carbon fee is charged.
In 2024, carbon pricing was applied to assess:
Short-, medium-, and long-term carbon fee impacts across the supply chain
Potential direct operational carbon cost impacts
Benefits of energy transition initiatives
