The market is changing constantly with new and different product applications‭. ‬In response‭, ‬product design must not only take into account the cost‭, ‬function and quality of a product‭, ‬but also the innovation of and solutions with new technologies and materials‭, ‬as well as the impact of the product on the environment‭. ‬In addition to maintaining a product portfolio with new technologies and high efficiency‭, ‬WT also gives priority to assisting customers in adopting systematic solutions that can improve product‭ ‬energy efficiency‭, ‬and using components containing no harmful substances‭, ‬so as to meet the requirements of energy saving‭, ‬carbon reduction‭, ‬and environmental protection‭.‬
 
Semiconductor components are crucial to electronic products‭. ‬In alignment with the green design thinking‭, ‬WT further promotes highly efficient green semiconductor components with reduced energy loss‭, ‬so that the customers may design and produce from a forward-looking and sustainable perspective environmentally friendly‭, ‬high quality products with reduced energy consumption and of high energy efficiency‭ .‬
Highly efficient semiconductor components with low energy loss are promoted to carry out green thinking.

WT Technology represents world-renowned semiconductor vendors‭, ‬and works with varied customers to meet their demands in R&D‭, ‬design‭, ‬manufacturing‭, ‬and brand marketing‭. ‬As a bridge between vendors and customers‭, ‬it has been developing new applications and‭ ‬introducing new solutions to improve the energy efficiency of existing products such as third-generation semiconductors‭, ‬high-speed computing processors‭, ‬new-generation high-speed memories‭, ‬IoT microprocessors‭, ‬high-performance RF components‭, ‬3D sensors‭, ‬artificial intelligence‭, ‬and digital power supplies‭. ‬WT offers electronic components of improved energy efficiency and performance at the same power consumption to be applied in such fields as green energy‭, ‬alternative fuel vehicles‭, ‬industrial automation‭, ‬machine vision‭, ‬artificial intelligence‭, ‬cloud and edge computing‭, ‬data centers‭, ‬energy storage systems‭, ‬5G networks‭, ‬and long-haul and short-range communications and services‭, ‬etc‭.‬
 
 

WT keeps informed of electronic component market development trends‭, ‬new technologies‭, ‬solutions and designs‭, ‬and offers education and training on relevant product applications‭, ‬so as to work with the customers to achieve forward-looking and sustainable design‭. ‬To enhance awareness and application of the vendor’s products‭, ‬a total of as much as NTD 655‭ ‬millions were spent in research and development in 2022‭, ‬up 7.61%‭ ‬from 2021‭.‬
 

WT systematically classifies and manages the application fields of the products it sells‭, ‬so as to always provide customers with‭ ‬optimal services and forward-looking sustainably designed products in a timely manner‭. ‬In response to the‭ “‬Reference Guidelines‭ ‬for the Identification of Sustainable Economic Activities‭” ‬promulgated by the Financial Supervisory Commission in 2022‭, ‬WT analyzed the application fields of existing products and identified those meet forward-looking economic activities‭, ‬such as low-carbon transportation technology applications‭, ‬high-energy-efficiency equipment manufacturing‭, ‬high-energy-efficiency technology applications‭, ‬and renewable energy installation‭, ‬etc‭. ‬They accounted for 9.86%‭ ‬of the existing products in 2022‭, ‬with another 33.18‭% ‬to be determined depending on the actual use by the customers whether they meet the description of forward-looking economic activities‭. ‬Forward-looking economic activities are an important industry and product development trend for global sustainable development‭. ‬WT will continue to promote product applications and improve technical development and economic activities related to‭ ‬forward-looking economic activities‭, ‬with the goal of accounting for 20%‭ ‬of the revenue by 2030‭.‬
 

An advanced electronic system was introduced for paperless inventory management.
WT has logistics centers for receiving and shipping goods in Taiwan‭, ‬Hong Kong‭, ‬Shenzhen‭, ‬Singapore‭, ‬and South Korea‭. ‬Purchase orders are placed to the logistics center located the closest to the customer to keep warehouse transfer and delivery distances short‭. ‬All logistics center operations are processed through paperless electronic procedures on an advanced logistics information‭ ‬system‭. ‬With Wi-fi network accessible from every corner of the logistics center‭, ‬PDAs are used to scan product and storage placement barcodes upon slotting‭, ‬picking‭, ‬and relocation for a real-time update of relevant accounts and stock location on the system‭. ‬Stock cards are no longer needed for record keeping‭. ‬An automated warehousing system is scheduled to be introduced to the Singapore logistics center in 2023‭ ‬to further optimize the management of receiving‭, ‬shipment and warehousing‭.‬
 
All logistics center operations are processed through paperless electronic procedures on an advanced logistics information system‭, ‬which is used to optimize the number of freight trips‭, ‬and consolidate shipment orders to minimize transportation batches and‭ ‬carbon mileage‭. ‬In 2022‭, ‬290,767‭ ‬orders were consolidated at the five logistics centers‭, ‬reducing the number of bills of lading‭ ‬by 64.91%‭. ‬Among them‭, ‬the Shenzhen logistics center serves a relatively small number of customers and thus has difficulties in‭ ‬consolidating shipment orders‭.‬
 

Shipment Consolidation and electronic procedures greatly reduced paper consumption‭.‬
With an operating strategy of digital optimization‭, ‬the paper-based operations have been replaced and PDAs are now used to scan‭ ‬product and storage placement barcodes upon slotting‭, ‬picking‭, ‬relocation and shipping for warehousing management procedures in‭ ‬the five WT logistic centers‭.
 

Less packaging‭, ‬more recycling
WT continues to cut down on packaging materials with efforts including using paper pallets whenever possible for loading products in warehouses and shipments‭, ‬reducing the usage of filling materials‭, ‬and always using renewable packaging materials for logistics operations‭. ‬In addition‭, ‬nothing but the necessary stacking and transportation precautions are to be printed on the cartons‭ ‬purchased by WT‭.‬
 
Products received from the vendors will be warehoused in the original packages if repackaging is not planned for shipment‭. ‬If repackaging is necessary‭, ‬all the removed original cartons and filling materials will be collected for reuse‭, ‬and classified as‭ “‬environmentally friendly cartons‭” ‬for statistics and management purposes‭. ‬For shipment packaging‭, ‬recycled cartons will be used whenever possible to reduce the use of new cartons‭. ‬The fillers used to protect the products in the cartons are made of bio-degradable materials‭.‬
 
Taiwan and Hong Kong began to be kept track of for the usage of filling materials‭ (‬in meters‭) ‬in 2020‭. ‬An average of 0.19‭ ‬meters‭ ‬of filling materials were used per cartons in 2022‭, ‬decreasing sharply by 48.65%‭ ‬from 2020‭.‬
 

Investing in solar plant developer and serving as a representative director
WT invested NTD12.5 million in Daypower Co., Ltd. in April 2023. WT owns 10% shares of Daypower and serves as a representative director. Daypower is a solar plant developer and completed 5.05 MW installation in 2023. Self-held solar plant reached 2.34 MW installation accumulatively in 2023, which generated 2.9 million kwh in 2023, equaling to 1,435 ton CO2 reduction.
