Insights into United Microelectronics's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, United Microelectronics has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.
Does United Microelectronics have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2023, United Microelectronics has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
United Microelectronics's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 90% by 2050, compared to a baseline of 2,895,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2020.
As of 2023, United Microelectronics is ahead of schedule on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 28.89% of the planned reduction.
