The Bank uses the Head Office in Taipei as the demonstration site. In 2016, we introduced the energy management system and passed third-party verification to obtain ISO 50001 certification. We have formulated related reduction measures according to our energy management system implementation experience.
To implement energy-saving measures and reduce air pollution, the Bank manages daily gasoline and diesel consumption. Whenever possible, employees are encouraged to carpool or use public transportation for business travels. In addition, in response to the country's policy of electric vehicle use, all units are encouraged to choose electric scooters approved by the Ministry of Economic Affairs when replacing scooters or purchasing new scooters.
Although natural gas and gas use are not the main carbon emission sources, the Bank has included these sources in regular tracking and management to implement environmental sustainability goals. Related reduction measures were formulated, such as irregular inspections of related equipment, in order to discover damage or leaks early. We also aim to improve usage efficiency by managing the usage time of natural gas.
Considering the importance of resource utilization and management, the Bank set the goal to reduce water and electricity consumption by more than 2% compared to the base year (2020) in 2022. We achieved a reduction of approximately 4.9% in electricity consumption and approximately 10.01% in water usage, meeting our 2022 goals for resource utilization and management. Furthermore, in 2022, we utilized 100,000 kWh of green energy.
