In 2023, Gigadevice reported total carbon emissions of approximately 162,081 kg CO2e, which are classified under Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure reflects their operational impact, although specific breakdowns for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions were not disclosed. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 4,703,540 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 4,643,340 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 60,200 kg CO2e. This indicates a significant operational footprint, primarily driven by Scope 1 emissions. For 2021, Gigadevice's total emissions were around 5,252,420 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions contributing approximately 47,430 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions accounting for about 5,204,990 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Gigadevice has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the semiconductor industry context. Overall, while Gigadevice has reported emissions data, the lack of reduction targets and initiatives highlights an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate action framework.
