TAIPEI, Mar 4, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

TCI Co., Ltd. (TCI) was invited to attend the " Utilizing Renewable Energy

Certification to Facilitate APEC Regional Renewable Energy Growth " press

conference held by the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection on March

2. TCI Chairman Vincent Lin announced that TCI will complete the use of 100%

renewable energy by 2030, becoming the leader of Taiwan’s manufacturing

industry on energy saving and setting a global environmental positive benchmark

in the biotechnology sector.

Chairman Vincent Lin shared at the press conference that he applied to RE100 in

2017 and was selected to join in 2018. During the application process, when

setting the target, he received a suggestion that the target date could be set

at 2045 or even 2050. At that time, he thought that energy saving and carbon

emission reduction was the right future and should be implemented ahead of

schedule, so he was determined to meet the target by 2030. From the very

beginning, he started to review the existing business projects, and as long as

there is a conflict with the use of renewable energy, it is not a project that

will be able to survive in the future. He adjusted the services of TCI in

response to the trend of renewable energy use and energy saving, carbon

reduction, and started the process of achieving 100% renewable energy by 2030

with a balanced benchmark that can embrace both blessings and financial

returns. Vincent Lin said that the business leaders from various fields who

participated in the event are partners in energy saving and carbon reduction,

each with their own expertise, and will be able to support each other on the

way to 100% renewable energy use.

The press conference was attended by Chief Secretary of the Ministry of

Economic Affairs, Deputy Executive Director of the Office of Energy and Carbon

Reduction of the Executive Yuan, Director of the Bureau of Standards, Metrology

and Inspection, Executive Director of the Center for Resource Solutions (CRS),

USA, and representatives of companies participating in the Taiwan Forum,

including Chairman of AUO, President of Cathay Financial Holdings, Chief

Sustainability Officer of Delta Electronics, Chairman of TCI, Director of PwC

Taiwan, and Chairman of Taipei 101.

The APEC Online Forum, which will be launched from March 7 to 9 with the theme

"Utilizing Renewable Energy Certification to Facilitate APEC Regional Renewable

Energy Growth", is the first time for 21 APEC member economies to promote

renewable energy-related issues in the region from the perspective of renewable

energy certification. The theme of the forum is discussed from the policy

system side, market side and enterprise ESG side, and it is also the first time

that Taiwan co-organizes a cross-fora forum on "energy" and "standards" in the

APEC international conference venue, which is of key significance to the future

development of renewable energy and certification market.
