SBT Emissions Reduction Targets
LITEON has established science-based greenhouse gas reduction targets aligned with the 1.5°C pathway. The targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
LITEON commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 58.8% by 2033 from a 2023 base year. For Scope 3 emissions, LITEON commits to reducing the average use-phase carbon intensity of sold power products by 63.8% per unit by 2034 from a 2023 base year.
LITEON has also committed to achieving 100% renewable electricity use by 2040 and reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050.

Note 1: Total electricity consumption increased in 2025 due to capacity expansion at the Vietnam and Taiwan facilities.
Note 2: Absolute water consumption increased in 2025 as revenue and operating activity increased.
Note 3: Changes in market demand and product shipment mix affected overall UV-LED energy efficiency performance. LITEON will continue promoting the adoption and optimization of energy-efficient products.
Note 4: The packaging optimization program was expanded to additional product models in 2025, resulting in a greater reduction in packaging usage.
