Energy Management
TSC is committed to improving energy efficiency and closely monitoring electricity and energy use across operations. Each site develops its own energy-saving plans based on actual usage, focusing on high-consumption equipment and replacing outdated systems with energy-efficient alternatives.
Since 2023, the Lije and Shandong sites have begun phased implementation of the ISO 50001 Energy Management System to establish a PDCA cycle and formalize energy management. Through data monitoring and analysis, TSC identifies energy-intensive areas and drives continuous efficiency improvements.
Energy Structure
The energy sources used at production sites include electricity, diesel, gasoline, and other fuels. In 2024, electricity accounted for approximately 99.8% of total energy consumption. TSC has already integrated renewable energy, which comprised 23% of total energy use. Other fuels are primarily used to power equipment such as emergency generators, forklifts, and lift trucks within the facilities. In recent years, the Shandong Site has replaced all diesel-powered forklifts with electric models, reducing diesel consumption by approximately 1.5 metric tons annually.

Energy Improvement Initiatives and 2024 Implementation Results
As electricity is TSC’s main energy source, all energy-saving efforts in 2024 focused on electricity reduction. Key initiatives included improving cooling tower and chiller efficiency, upgrading lighting, and replacing air conditioning systems to support energy and carbon reduction goals.
In 2024, TSC adopted the ISO 50001 Energy Management System to guide energy-saving and equipment renewal projects. These efforts led to a reduction of 1,694.45 GJ in energy consumption compared to 2023, equivalent to approximately 223.1 metric tons of CO2e emissions.
Renewable Energy Usage in 2024
TSC monitors global renewable energy policies, regulations, pricing, and market trends to develop long-term strategies and explore feasible options. In 2024, the Shandong and Tianjin sites adopted renewable energy through mechanisms such as renewable energy certificates and third-party power transfers, totaling 50,108.40 GJ— accounting for 23% of TSC’s total energy use.
Other sites will continue evaluating renewable energy programs and taking concrete actions to reduce GHG emissions and mitigate environmental impacts from operations.
