Organization

The Environmental Management Committee was formally established in 2016 and renamed the Environmental Working Group (EWG) in 2022. The Chief Technology Officer of the Technology Group serves as the Chairperson and the Head of the Sustainability Department strategy planning serves as the Deputy Chairperson, formulating environmental goals and strategies, promoting the company's environmentally friendly policies, and integrating six project groups namely ISO14001 (Environment Management), ISO14064 (GHG Inventory), ISO50001 (Energy Management), Intelligent Energy-Saving, Renewable Energy and Biodiversity Protection. The EWG convenes meetings every six months to assess implementation progress and identify areas for improvement. Executive secretaries from each project group regularly monitor the progress of improvements.

The roles and responsibilities of each project team as below:

  • ISO14001 project team: formulate and track various environmental goals
  • ISO14064 project team: Implement GHG Inventory and verification
  • ISO50001 project team: implement energy policy and continuously improve energy performance
  • Intelligent Energy-Saving program team: implement industry-academic cooperation for achieving net zero emissions, intelligent energy use, achieve net zero emissions and continuously improving energy efficiency
  • Renewable Energy project team: Responsible for evaluating, constructing, and managing power plants, identifying suitable targets for power purchase and transmission wheeling, and achieving 100% renewable energy usage.
  • Biodiversity Conservation Project Team: Develop and implement group-level best practices for biodiversity conservation and zero deforestation.
