Construction of Solar Power Generation Facilities at Dangjin plantTaihan has set up independent solar generation facilities at the Dangjin plant. As part of the carbon-neutral roadmap to combat the climate crisis, the company has taken significant steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy efficiency. Taihan has installed solar power facilities covering 10,000 square meters of roof space across two buildings at the Dangjin Plant. These facilities are expected to generate 1,400 MWh of electricity annually, which will power both the plant and its production operations. The project is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 630 tCO2eq annually, which equates to the environmental impact of planting around 4,300 pine trees. Taihan plans to continuously expand solar power generation facilities to increase the proportion of renewable energy use. The company is also evaluating the adoption of solar power facilities at its submarine cable plant 1, which is scheduled to finish construction by 2025.​ 

Establishing Carbon Neutrality RoadmapTaihan Cable & Solution has established a detailed carbon neutrality roadmap to achieve Net Zero by 2050. The greenhouse gas reduction targets are set according to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) standards. SBTi is a global initiative that validates corporate carbon emission reduction targets based on scientific evidence. Taihan plans to submit its reduction targets and implementation plans within the first half of this year, aiming to be the first in the domestic cable industry to receive approval from SBTi. According to its roadmap, Taihan plans to reduce the total amount of carbon emissions, both direct and indirect, from all its operations, both domestic and international, by 46% by 2031. In addition, the company aims to reduce carbon emissions from its entire value chain, including overseas subsidiaries, partners, and transportation, by more than 30% by 2031. The ultimate goal is to achieve Net Zero by 2050, meaning all carbon emissions from product manufacturing and business activities will be reduced to zero.
