Climate Change
The main manufacturing process in Pegatron is assembly. Most other work is in an office setting. Therefore, the pollution from Pegatron is relatively lower than in other industries. However, due to global climate change and in order to take responsibility for environmental protection, Pegatron has established the "Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reduction Project" in 2008.
GHG Reduction Policy
Pegatron has considered the concept of GHG reduction for the design and the manufacturing stages. Furthermore, we have reached this goal by enhancement of the efficiency in energy conservation and the optimal evaluation for energy consumption and cost in transportation.
 
GHG Inventory and Reduction Project
The GHG inventory and management plan verifies all possible emission sources in each site. In addition, we identify the emission sources, and calculate the quantity and emission records to report the inventory result. In the future, we also set up a reduction plan and target to reduce the environmental impacts due to business, manufacturing and all activities by staff, and to take the responsibility for global protection.
 
Our Preliminary Objective:
Investigate and document the six major GHGs (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFC, PFC, SF6) as well as the CO2 equivalent generated from our manufacturing activities, operational activities and transportation by Pegatron both in the movement of the products and employees.
 
Manufacturing:
Pegatron has a goal of continuous improvement and conducts energy efficiency performance reviews of production equipment annually. The equipment upgrade will be performed to control emissions and reduce energy use as needed
 
Reduction Plan:
Pegatron reviews the energy and power efficiency in production equipment annually and conducts many energy saving activities to reduce electricity and energy consumption for transportation and delivery every year.
Pegatron's GHG Emissions Reduction Plan is under development. The plan includes:
  • Gathering baseline data on GHG emissions in manufacturing.
  • Establishing metrics such as amount of carbon emitted per unit of energy used, and metric tons of CO2 equivalent.
  • Researching and implementing changes to reduce carbon emissions, including measuring and marking milestones.
  • Investigating the feasibility for the use of economical and renewable resources, including wind power, biomass use, solar photovoltaic or other viable renewable energy sources.
