Environment
Climate change and energy management are vital for PHIHONG's sustainable development. We analyze, control, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions annually by 4.2%, striving for net zero emissions by 2050 to actively combat climate change.
Climate Change Risks and Opportunities
PHIHONG follows the Climate Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) proposal and conducts comprehensive climate risk management from four perspectives: governance, strategy, risk management, and indicators and targets. Firstly, we identify potential significant risks, evaluate the financial impact path and impact scale under different scenarios for each risk factor, take stock of countermeasures, and set targets for regular monitoring and tracking.
We have listed the main climate change transformation risks, physical risks, opportunities, financial impacts and responses in 2023 as follows:
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Opportunity Type | Potential Financial Opportunities |
Transformation Risk - Compulsory Acts, Agreements - Technology risk | Laws, policies, reduction targets: -2050 net zero emission -Corporate governance 3.0 | Improve corporate resilience | Improve the company's ESG performance and market investment value |
Management Measures and Actions | |||
- Introduce energy management system and construct solar power generation facilities. Self-owned factory roofs to build solar power generation facilities, the onstructing solar power facilities on the rooftops of our own factories, with Dongguan Phihong's 2,000KWp facility officially operational in 2023. - Construct TCFD system and continuously manages short, medium & long-term ESG performance (ESG report) on a rolling basis. - Actively cooperate with the FSC to strengthen corporate governance. - Response and disclosure of sustainability disclosure indicators in "Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation Rules Governing the Preparation and Filing of Sustainability Reports by TWSE Listed Companies". |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Opportunity Type | Potential Financial Opportunities |
Physical risk - Immediate / longterm | Supply Chain Management: Suspension of Raw Material Supplies, Increased Sustainable Energy Costs in the Supply Chain | Resilience - supply chain risk reduction | Improve supply chain reliability and response resilience |
Management Measures and Actions | |||
Introduce BCM Management |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Opportunity Type | Potential Financial Opportunities |
Transformation Risk - Market - Technology | Changing Market Preferences: Customer Demands for Green Design | - Increase revenue - Increase market share | Raise customer trust, competitiveness and operating income |
Management Measures and Actions | |||
Raise the cost of green product development. |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Opportunity Type | Management Measures and Actions |
Physical risk - Immediate / longterm | Impact of extreme weather events: extreme weather, heavy rainfall, typhoons, etc. cause flooding | Improving the resilience of our own and the supply chain | Insure against related disasters. |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Management Measures and Actions |
Physical risk - Immediate / longterm | Impact of high temperature: Due to high temperature, the demand for air conditioning in offices and factories increases, which increases power consumption | - Introduce an energy management system, namely energy monitoring system, to improve electricity consumption efficiency. - Update energy equipment to improve energy efficiency. |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Management Measures and Actions |
Physical risk - Immediate / longterm | Extreme weather causes drought | No production process uses water, minimal impact. Purchase of drinking water and air conditioning water supply |
Risk Type | Potential Financial Risk | Management Measures and Actions |
physical risk - Immediate / longterm | Flooding caused by sea level rise | Insure again related disaster risks |
