Since 2014, the Taiwanese semiconductor company TSMC was able to reduce the intensity of its scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions. However, since 2021 the absolute emission volume of scope 1 greenhouse gasses has decreased from two million metric tons in 2014 to 1.6 million metric tons in 2023. Scope 1 emissions describe direct carbon dioxide emissions, and scope 2 refers to indirect emissions caused by energy consumption.
