Climate warming actions have become an important concern for the world. Giga conducts GHG inventories in accordance with inventory guidance, such as ISO 14064-1:2018. According to the results of the inventory, the main source of emissions is indirect carbon emissions of purchased electricity derivative scope 2 for 24-hour test machine operation. Direct emission scope 1 is fugitive emission of HFCs from refrigerant of air conditioning system and refrigerator, CO2 and CH4 and N2O emissions caused by the use of gas and diesel vehicles. The data-based indicators from the inventory results are used to understand the impact and influence of operational activities on the environment as the basis of planning GHG reduction strategies.

GIGA’s GHG scope 1 is mostly CO2 emissions from fixed sources with a very small amount of PFCs that are mixtures for refrigerant filling, accounting for about 1% of the total emissions from scope 1 and 2.

GIGAs’ GHG scope 1 and scope 2 reduction method is mainly based on the use of renewable energy to reduce the emission of scope 2, together with carbon rights procurement to reduce GHG emissions ratio.

GIGAs’ reduction goal:

Carbon Reduction and Renewable Energy Targets Reached in 2023

2023 goals and achievements

In 2023, GIGA have been implement energy-saving measures, use renewable energy and purchase 5,700 tons of carbon rights, reducing category 1 and category 2 emissions by 7.3% compared with 2020, achieving the goal of reducing 6% in 2023 compared to 2020.
