In 2023, AUO completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, AUO has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

In 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of AUO amounted to 2,432,312.41 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).
Compared to 2022, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of AUO decreased by 0.44%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.
In 2023, the total Scope 1 emissions of AUO were 68,294.77 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Since 2020, AUO's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 33.18%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.
Compared to the previous year (2022), AUO's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 2.08%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.
In 2023, AUO reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 2,364,017.64 tCOâ‚‚e without specifying the calculation method.
Since 2020, AUO's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have decreased by 18.74%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.
Compared to the previous year (2022), AUO's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have remained relatively stable, indicating that AUO 's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.
In 2023, AUO reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.
In 2023, AUO reported 2,169,995 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.
The 2023 disclosure of AUO includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, down from 9 in 2022, indicating a decline in reporting granularity and reduced insight into the company's full value chain emissions.
In 2023, AUO reported total Scope 3 emissions of 2,169,995 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Since 2020, AUO's Scope 3 emissions have increased by 47.44%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.
Compared to the previous year (2022), AUO's Scope 3 emissions increased by 116.03%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.
In 2023, AUO reported a total carbon footprint of 4,602,307.41 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 33.49% increase compared to 2022, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.
The largest contributor to AUO's total carbon footprint was Scope 2 emissions, accounting for 51.37% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 3 emissions at 47.15%.
