Chi Mei has set ambitious climate commitments, with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated targets. The company aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, using a 2021 base year. Near-term targets include a 42% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030 from a 2021 base year. Additionally, Chi Mei commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and processing of sold products by 25% within the same timeframe. Long-term targets, also from a 2021 base year, include a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2050, and a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same period. The target boundary for these reductions includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
