International Initiatives
SBTi
In May 2022, GIS submitted a commitment letter to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) based on the scenarios for limiting warming to 1.5°C, pledging to achieve net-zero emissions across its value chain by 2050 and setting near-term carbon reduction targets.
Passed the official SBTi review in March 2024, committing to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions 42% by 2030, as well as 100% renewable electricity usage the same year (using 2022 as the base year).
The average annual reduction required for Scope 1 and Scope 3 in 2025 is 5.25% each. Statistical data shows that the Company has achieved this year's reduction targets for both Scope 1 and Scope 3.
TCFD
In 2022, the TCFD framework was implemented, establishing a process for identifying and disclosing climate-related information, and in August 2022, the Company officially signed to become a TCFD Supporter. In July 2023, the Company published its first independently prepared 2022 TCFD Report. Received the highest rating of "Level-5: Excellence" Level certification.
GIS will continue to align with TCFD’s four core elements—governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics & targets—to promote and disclose its climate-related management and actions.
TNFD
For the first time in 2024, natural risks and opportunities were incorporated into corporate decision-making to enhance operational resilience and sustainable competitiveness. In 2025, continued to identify relevant content and expand to include China factories, making the overall assessment more comprehensive.
IFRS
Plan for the Implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) S1 and S2 In order to successfully implement the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards in compliance with regulatory requirements and to enhance information transparency, the Company refers to the Financial Supervisory Commission's "Blueprint for the Adoption of IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards in Taiwan" planning. The Company has paid-in capital of approximately NT$3.4 billion and therefore falls within the category of companies with paid-in capital of less than NT$5 billion. GIS will become subject to the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards for the first time on January 1, 2028. Accordingly, in 2029, the Company will disclose sustainability information for fiscal year 2028 in the dedicated sustainability information section of its annual report in accordance with the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards. In accordance with the reference guidelines and related requirements issued by the competent authorities, the Board of Directors will authorize the relevant units to establish a cross-functional “IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards Functional Team” in the fourth quarter of 2026 and appoint a team leader. The teams will comprise representatives from sustainability, finance and accounting, risk management, legal compliance, internal audit, and other relevant functions. The functional team will identify significant differences and impacts between current sustainability information and IFRS sustainability disclosure standards,
