Energy Management

• Energy Management Policy  

 
The Company has established an ISO 'Energy Resource Usage Management Procedure,' which applies to all energy resources, including water, electricity, gasoline, auxiliary materials, packaging materials, components, office supplies, and daily necessities. The purpose is to strengthen the management of energy resources, reduce energy consumption, protect the environment, and simultaneously reduce company costs.

 

• Energy Consumption  

 
The energy used by the Company in its operations consists of electricity and gasoline. Electricity is the main energy source, used for production, indoor lighting, and air conditioning. Gasoline is mainly used by the Company’s vehicles. Through continuous energy management, we can not only enhance the Company’s economic efficiency but also protect the environment and reduce the damage to nature caused by development. We uphold the concept of sustainable development and continuously maximize energy utilization.

• Organizational-specific metrics serve as the denominator for emission intensity. They can be monetary units（such as revenue or sales）, output volume（such as metric tons, liters, or megawatts）, the total number of full-time employees, or size （such as square meters）.
• The conversion factor for electricity is 1 kWh = 0.0036 GJ.
• The conversion factors for calculating the calorific value of fuels are based on the Ministry of Environment’s greenhouse gas emission factor management table 6.0.4: gasoline 7,800 kcal/L; diesel 8,400 kcal/L; natural gas 8,000 kcal/m3; LPG 6,635 kcal/L; 1 kcal = 4.1868 KJ.

   
  

• Materials Management

The raw materials used by the Company primarily include cardboard boxes and silicon wafers, with silicon wafers accounting for the larger volume.
In 2024, overall material usage saw a significant increase compared to 2023. Silicon wafer usage, in particular, increased by approximately 51.91%, mainly due to operational needs. ANPEC Electronics’ material usage statistics for the last three years are shown in the table below：
 

MATERIAL USAGE STATISTICS
RAW MATERIAL NAME	UNIT	RENEWABLE or Non-RENEWABLE	2022	2023	2024
Cardboard Boxes	Kg	Non-Renewable	12,768	15,648	16,620
Silicon Wafer	Kg	Non-Renewable	44,651	24,979	37,946

• Material types include original natural resources like ore, iron, wood, and plastic pellets; lubricants for machinery, semi-finished parts, or components; and packaging materials.
• “Non-Renewable” refers to resources that cannot be replenished in a short period, such as coal, natural gas, metals, minerals, and oil. “Renewable” refers to resources that can regrow after being harvested.。

   
 

• The Carbon Reduction Effect Delivered to Customers by the Product or Service

IC design is the core business of ANPEC Electronics, and it is at the forefront of the product chain, In addition to ISO9001 (Quality Management System) and ISO14001 (Environmental Management System) certification, ANPEC partners such as wafer manufacturing, packaging, and testing factories are required to ensure that all production materials and materials and substances are in line with Japan's Sony Management Regulations for the Environment-Related Substances to be Controlled Which are Included in Parts And Materials (SONY SS-00259), EU RoHS/HF/REACH and other international environmental protection directives and customer green product hazardous substance requirements which are divided into multiple stages for controlling and monitoring. The company adheres to the principle of local procurement, complemented by the research and production of green products, to reduce carbon footprints and minimize energy consumption. We are committed to providing customers with products free of harmful substances, thereby reducing environmental impact. Our power management ICs are confirmed with customers for their application conditions and meet the required power standards for those conditions. In addition, we provide customers with customized integrated power management ICs.
Besides meeting customers’ power specifications, these ICs can significantly reduce the PCB area required for their applications, thereby reducing material usage and energy consumption. For example, a four-channel DCDC integrated power management IC is estimated to save over 30% of the required PCB area compared to a solution using discrete power ICs.

 

• Policies for Increasing Energy Use Efficiency of Energy Use

 

• The Company is dedicated to enhancing resource efficiency by utilizing renewable raw materials that have minimal impact on the environment. Additionally, the Company also actively advocates for energy conservation to improve overall energy efficiency and decrease carbon emissions.
