Medium-term targets and strategies |
GHG inventory |
GHG inventory
- We constantly expand GHG inventory to all locations and enforce the inventory of other indirect (Scope 3: categories 3 to 6) GHG emissions
|
- Taiwan HQ and Merry Shenzhen performed organizational GHG inventory in accordance with the ISO 14064-1:2018 standard and passed the third-party verification.
- Merry Vietnam and Merry Thailand completed internal organizational GHG inventory in accordance with the ISO14064-1:2018 standard.
- Completed the carbon footprint inventory of an earphone product (one piece) and passed the third-party verification of ISO14067:2018.
|
- Taiwan HQ and Merry Shenzhen completed the third-party verification in accordance of ISO14064-1:2018
- Merry Vietnam, Merry Thailand, Merry Hong Kong, Merry Singapore, and Merry USA completed the internal inventory in accordance with ISO14064-1:2018 specifications
|
- All locations performed GHG inventory in accordance with the latest ISO14064-1 standard
- We implemented the Science Based Targets (SBT) to implement carbon reduction and management more effectively
|
Enhancing energy efficiency |
Energy monitoring system and energy use analysis
- Improved the energy efficiency of energy-consuming equipment
Paying attention to successful examples in corporate energy conservation
- Through experience exchange talks and external successful examples in energy conservation, we actively learned new technology, concepts, and experience
|
- Merry Shenzhen Plant 2 introduced electric meter monitoring and established an energy management system to automatically collect data by the system for improvement in abnormal power consumption immediately.
- Merry Vietnam installed a waste heat recycling system in its air compressor system to provide hot water to dormitories, which can save approximately 16,000kWh each year.
- Merry Thailand updated 14 inverter A/Cs to improve energy consumption efficiency, which can save approximately 66,600kWh each year.
|
- Reduce energy intensity by 7.5% (base year 2020)
- Constantly enhanced equipment efficiency to strengthen the energy use analysis and monitoring system
|
- Constantly expanded the scope of energy management and enforced energy efficiency improvement plans
|
Renewables |
Use renewable energy
- Assess solar PV system construction and renewables transfer projects
Renewable energy certificate (REC)
- Supported local renewables development by purchasing RECs
|
- In 2022, under the boundary of RE100, Merry used a total of 5,506MWh of renewable energy, accounting for 16.31% of the total power ratio, in which 907MWh was the direct use of renewable energy, and 4,599MWh was through the purchase of renewable energy certificates.
- Merry Vietnam installed a rooftop solar power system, and it is estimated to be put into use in March 2023
|
- In 2023, the proportion of the use of renewable energy will reach 21% of total energy consumption.
- The headquarters in Taichung installed a rooftop solar power system, and it is estimated to be put into use in January 2024, and it is estimated to generate approximately 250MWh of power
|
- In 2030, the proportion of renewables use will reach 60% of total energy consumption
|
Internal carbon pricing |
Establishment of Shadow Pricing
- Set internal carbon pricing to evaluate regulatory and transformation risks related to climate change that may be faced by the organization in the future
|
- Plan for the establishment of the internal carbon pricing system of the Group and introduce and set up the short-term, mid-term, and long-term objectives and relevant promotion schedule of the internal carbon pricing system
- Set up the internal carbon pricing system and establish relevant procedure documents
|
- Continue to carry out the internal promotion of shadow carbon pricing and implementation
- Continual optimization of operating procedures
|
- Introduce an internal carbon fee system to improve the internal awareness of carbon dioxide reduction of the organization
|
Water resources & Waste |
Water resources
- While domestic water use was the major water consumption at plants, we used water-efficient equipment and enhanced employee awareness by adopting ISO 14001 as the basis for the water resource management of our plants
Waste
- We periodically followed up on the plant’s hazardous waste disposal and conducted real-time analysis and improvement of abnormal waste production by adopting ISO 14001 as the basis for the waste management of our plants
|
Water resources
- Merry Taiwan has installed a rainwater collection system, and the gathering volume is approximately 1,000 tons, and the maximum use volume is 60%
- Merry Shenzhen has changed to use 37 water-saving faucets
- Merry Thailand adjusted the water pressure of the faucets and the water level of the flushing equipment
Waste
- Merry Shenzhen optimized the SMT procedures and reduced the generation of hazardous wastes by approximately 24% as compared to 2021
- 100% compliance with local laws and standards for waste disposal
|
Water resources
- Water consumption intensity was reduced by 6% as compared to the base year (base year 2020)
Waste
- Waste intensity was reduced by 6% as compared to the base year (base year 2020)
- Constant promoted reduction in waste production per unit output value and enforced resource recycling following source management
|
Water resources
- Enhanced water monitoring and analysis and constantly enhanced water efficiency
Waste
- Constantly implemented waste reduction and enforced resource recycling following source management
