Energy Management

With increasing energy efficiency, low-carbon processes and innovative energy conservation, energy transitions, and internal carbon pricing, Wistron is promoting GHG reduction efforts. For the roll out of energy management and energy conservation projects, Wistron has invested people, resources, and financial resources as well as assembled Energy Project Teams in all plants; the teams are composed of units responsible for plant engineering affairs or related matters. They convene regular energy management meetings and review the plant’s energy and project progress. The plants also share information on the effectiveness and their experiences in each project with each other.

• Increase Energy Efficiency

Wistron's energy-saving project is divided into six categories, including air conditioning systems, compressed air systems, green lighting, management, production, and others. As of the end of 2025, Wistron saved a total of 12,511.05 MWh of electricity, which reduced carbon emissions by 6,608.13 tCO2e. Our carbon reduction was equivalent to the annual CO2 absorption volume of 17 Daan Forest Parks, which can absorb 389 tons of carbon annually.

• Low-Carbon Manufacturing and Energy Saving Innovations

Wistron is proactively driving real carbon reduction in addition to increasing renewable energy use. We are also investing in low-carbon manufacturing processes and smart energy conservation technologies to improve energy efficiency and achieve our energy conservation goals. All sites carry out energy-saving projects to practice low-carbon production. We hope the projects can help us introduce smart energy management systems and strengthen management and data base. Diversified solutions have also been drawn up to realize low-carbon manufacturing and energy-saving innovations.
Under long-term efforts to roll out energy-saving actions, Wistron’s plants have achieved remarkable carbon reduction across the six energy-saving dimensions mentioned above. Air-conditioning and air compressor power consume the most energy in Wistron manufacturing sites. As such, carbon reduction efforts seek to target these two energy consumption hotspots through taking stock of hardware equipment and diagnosing energy use. The goal of effective management is achieved through the introduction of smart energy conservation technology, combined with AI and IoT control technology in addition to replacing old energy-intensive equipment. In 2025, we saved 12,511.05 MWh of electricity. Wistron will continue to commit to low-carbon innovative manufacturing with the help of smart solutions. We are combining digital platforms and virtual factories to realize the vision of sustainable management through energy management, intelligent repair and maintenance systems, and cold water systems.

• Energy Transition

Extreme weather has become the new norm. Major international companies have joined the 100% renewable energy, RE100, initiative to support the use of renewable energy to reduce carbon emissions and slow down global warming. In response to the global trend of renewable energy, Wistron is actively promoting energy transformation. The renewable energy strategy prioritizes the establishment of self-consumption solar power generation, actively expanding solar power generation capacity at global operational sites, and making diversified use of idle spaces. The company also maintains deep partnerships with local renewable energy providers and has signed renewable energy purchase agreements and procured renewable energy certificates. In 2025, Wistron actively deployed renewable energy, with an actual self-consumption power generation of 21,976.22MWh. The company also had a total of 104,797.72MWh of renewable energy purchased through agreements and procured 261,249MWh of renewable energy certificates. The renewable energy accounted for 80% of the total electricity in 2025, actively increasing the usage rate of renewable energy in global factories, service locations, and offices while reducing GHG emissions. The company aims to integrate the concept of green manufacturing into its business operations.

• Internal Carbon Pricing

Starting in 2025, Wistron expanded the scope of its internal carbon pricing assessments to encompass all global manufacturing and service sites, while simultaneously developing a digital management platform to systematically track progress toward carbon reduction targets and automate carbon fee calculations. The platform provides business group leaders with real-time visibility into the carbon reduction performance of their respective sites and the associated potential cost impacts. The Company plans to formally introduce an internal carbon fee mechanism in 2026 as part of the full implementation of its internal carbon pricing framework and to support its long-term net-zero transition.
Referencing the target carbon price range recommended by the World Bank and international carbon tax trends, the internal carbon price is set at US$100/tCO₂e. The carbon fees collected will be managed through a dedicated Climate Fund and operated on a ring-fenced basis. The fund will support two programs across business unit sites: Carbon Reduction Incentives and Carbon Reduction Investment Subsidies.
