Silicon Optronics, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Silicon Optronics, Inc., headquartered in Taiwan (TW), reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 119,534 kg CO2e, with all emissions attributed to Scope 2. The company did not report any Scope 1 emissions, indicating no direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. In 2023, the reported Scope 2 emissions were about 108,827 kg CO2e, reflecting a slight increase in emissions year-on-year. Silicon Optronics has not established any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of reduction commitments suggests a need for further climate action within the organisation. The company’s emissions data is self-reported and does not cascade from a parent organisation, ensuring that the figures reflect its direct operational impact. Overall, while Silicon Optronics has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of reduction targets highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate commitments in the future.
