Message from The Chairman
At the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) held in Belém, Brazil in 2025, global attention shifted from carbon reduction data to forest and rainforest conservation, and reaffirmed the principle that environmental action must be aligned with Indigenous peoples’ rights. TDCC signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Taiwan Successive Indigenous Township Mayor Association in 2024, and officially launched the Indigenous Carbon Sink Industry-Academia Collaboration Project in 2025. Through concrete actions, TDCC supports Taiwan’s Indigenous culture and beautiful mountain forests, transforming climate action into a driving force for local revitalization. In 2025, TDCC continued to increase its renewable energy usage rate and maintained ISO 14068-1 carbon neutrality verification by the British Standards Institution. By offsetting residual emissions with high-quality carbon credits aligned with the principles of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, TDCC aims to achieve a triple-win outcome for environmental protection, corporate responsibility, and sustainable development.
Achieving Carbon Neutrality in 2025, Steadily Advancing Toward Net-Zero by 2030
Looking ahead to the 2030 net-zero pathway, we will continue to upgrade low-carbon operations, strengthen various energy-saving measures, and increase the proportion of renewable energy procurement to reduce Scope 2 emissions. For residual greenhouse gas emissions, we carefully select high-quality carbon credits aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for offsetting, while continuing to focus on nature-based carbon removal solutions. We also fulfill our environmental commitments in the capital market. Through the ESG IR Platform, we assist financial institutions and investors in precisely managing portfolio carbon emissions, supporting the low-carbon transition of Taiwan’s capital market.
Deepening the Five Pillars of Public Welfare: Embedding Mutual Prosperity into Our Corporate DNA
“Advancing Mutual Prosperity” has always been TDCC’s core value. We continue to expand public welfare investments across five areas: care for disadvantaged groups, education, culture, sports, and society. These efforts cover diverse actions such as emergency relief, support for persons with disabilities, care for economically disadvantaged groups and elderly/Indigenous/rural communities, revitalization of cultural performances, grassroots sports development, donations of equipment for police and firefighters, blood donation drives, and post-disaster reconstruction, fulfilling TDCC’s long-term commitment to corporate social responsibility.
Enhancing Disclosure and Enhancing Corporate Governance
In 2025, TDCC prepared a trial 2024 sustainability information chapter under the IFRS S1 and S2 framework and continued to refine the TCFD reporting framework. In addition, the Sustainable Investment Policy was approved in August 2025. TDCC will gradually expand its investment scale in sustainable financial products, with a target of reaching NT$10 billion in sustainable investment positions within three years. Looking ahead, TDCC will continue to optimize corporate governance and work with stakeholders to jointly build a more resilient and human-centered financial ecosystem.
