Although Korea has yet to be obliged to reduce its gas emissions as stipulated in the Kyoto Protocol, Korea is the world`s 9th nation in terms of gas emissions.
Given the global trend, coupled with the demands of customers at home and abroad, Samsung Techwin has been structuring a system to deal with such demands in a timely manner.
Purpose: To identify the gas emission source / amount to develop measures to reduce greenhouse gases
Scope: Total 6 locations (1,2,3, Sungnam factory, HRD center, dormitories)
Gas : Total of 6 types (CO₂, CH₄, N₂0, HFC, SF6, PFC)
Total emissions (based on 2004) : 64,725 ton (CO₂conversion)
Source: Electricity (83.3%), Fuel (16.4%), Cars (0.3%)
| Classification | Use of power | |
|---|---|---|
| MANDATORY | #1 |
Gas emissions directly from the sources under the control of the business or ownership - Fixed emissions: Fuels for combustion equipment (boiler, emergency generator etc) - Fugitive emissions: industrial wastewater, septic tank treatment, air conditioner’s refrigerant |
| #2 |
Emissions as a result of using electricity, heat or steam - Electrical power consumption |
|
| OPTION | #3 |
Gas emissions from the source under the control of other business or ownership - Portable combustion: Commuter bus (outsourcing), indivisual cars - Fugitive emissions: Incineration / reclamation of industrial wastes (outsourcing)OPTIONAL |
Samsung Techwin continuously monitors emissions of greenhouse gases, the main culprits of global warming
from its production activities.
As a result of an accelerated growth we underwent since 2004, there has been a sharp increase in consumption of power and fuels at our production sites. To curb the growth of greenhouse gas emissions, we are conducting company-wide energy-saving campaigns and upgrading our equipment and facilities to make them more energy efficient.
