In 2023, Taiwan Sugar Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 61,839,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 61,839,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. The company also recorded significant Scope 3 emissions, totalling about 128,449,812 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services contributing approximately 11,781,454 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, the corporation's emissions were higher, with Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions each at about 76,022,165 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 153,538,537 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable reduction in emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Taiwan Sugar Corporation has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to inherit emissions data from a parent company. The corporation has disclosed emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in its reporting practices. Overall, while Taiwan Sugar Corporation has made strides in reducing its emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
