Energy Saving and Carbon Reduction Commission
In order to promote the energy saving measures in all factory sites, OUCC established a cross-departmental Energy Saving & Carbon Reduction Committee and sets out the “Procedures for the Organization of Energy Saving & Carbon Reduction Committee” and other mechanisms. Working meetings are held on a quarterly basis to ensure the goals are reached. A variety of energy saving practices are implemented to achieve the goals of greenhouse gas reduction and even future net zero emissions.
On December 10, 2025, the Company convened the Corporate Sustainability Implementation Committee, during which the introduction of an internal carbon pricing mechanism was discussed. The Committee preliminarily proposed adopting a shadow price of NTD 300/MT of CO₂ equivalent. By establishing an internal carbon price, the Company aims to incorporate potential carbon costs into project investment and capital expenditure evaluations at an early stage, thereby strengthening risk management in investment decision-making and guiding resource allocation toward low-carbon and higher-efficiency solutions.
At present, the Company is considering using Taiwan’s general carbon fee rate (currently NTD 300/MT of CO₂ equivalent) as the reference benchmark for its internal carbon pricing. Should the general carbon fee rate be adjusted in the future, the Company’s internal carbon price may be revised accordingly, taking into account policy developments and practical considerations, in order to ensure alignment with national regulations and policy directions.
The above proposal remains under discussion and evaluation and is scheduled to be reported to the Corporate Sustainability Committee in the Q1/2026. Following the Committee’s deliberation, the Company will progressively implement relevant measures based on the approved outcomes. The Company will continue to explore and assess various low-carbon initiatives, gradually integrating carbon management into its operational and investment decision-making processes, and demonstrating its proactive commitment to sustainable development and ESG principles.

Greenhouse Gas Emission (Taipei Head Office)
Greenhouse Gas Emission (Linyuan Plant)
Note:
1. SF6、PFCs、NF3 emissions are0 t-CO2e
2. The greenhouse gas inventory of baseline year 2021 totaled 353,154.9161 t-CO2e.
The Mitigation of Transportation Emission
To save energy and reduce carbon emission, we encourage employees at the Linyuan plant, the key manufacturing base of the OUCC, to take use of the company shuttle buses, or to join the carpool system for commuting, so as to cut down on the use of vehicles and reduce the indirect emission of greenhouse gases, solving the traffic jam problem, reducing time consumed by traffic block, and enhancing commuting efficiency of employees as well.
