Steering Carbon Reduction in the Industry Chain With the 1+N Carbon Management Demonstration Team

The enactment of the carbon fee mandate in 2025 is putting pressure on the corporate community in Taiwan to decarbonize. FENC formed the 1+N Carbon Management Demonstration Team, leading OGM, Toung Loong Textile MFG. Co. Ltd., Hong Yi Fiber Ind. Co. Ltd. and Yi Shin Textile Industrial Co. Ltd., as well as six diffusion plants as the mentored manufacturer, working together to reduce carbon emissions and operational risks in the industry chain by implementing low-carbon production and optimizing resource efficiency.
The project, which was approved on April 8, 2024, received NT$25.5 million in subsidy from the Industrial Development Agency of Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA). With an implementation period from April 2024 to September 2025, FENC serves as a lead, forming a carbon management partnership and integrating technical resources with ten upstream and downstream manufacturers. With coaching provided by the Taiwan Textile Research Institute, each member is to propose a carbon management plan based on the standards of ISO 14064-1 GHG inventory and ISO 14067 carbon footprint to ensure the integrity and credibility of the carbon reduction data.
The target for this project is to reduce 30,000 tCO2e by 2025. As of October 2024, the team has reduced 8,270 tCO2e. FENC is also helping the members assess their needs during the GHG inventory process, confirming the scope of inventory and collecting data in order to complete the carbon management and GHG inventory training.
