Amkor Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMKR), a leading provider of
semiconductor packaging and test services, announced today that it
has committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by
2050. The net zero goal aligns with the rigorous standards set by
the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which aims to limit
global temperature rise to 1.5°C.
To achieve the net zero goal by 2050, Amkor has established
near-term targets:
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 55% by 2033 in
its operations
- Suppliers in its value chain, covering 67% of Scope 3
emissions, will have science-based targets by 2028
These targets have been submitted to the SBTi for validation
today.
“Setting a net zero goal aligned with SBTi is a significant step
forward in our sustainability journey. It underscores our
commitment to decarbonization, a priority echoed by our
stakeholders, including customers, investors, and employees,” said
Giel Rutten, Amkor’s president and chief executive officer. “We
expect the key initiatives in achieving this goal include
transitioning our energy consumption to renewable energy sources
and collaborating with suppliers to reduce the carbon footprint in
our supply chain.”
Amkor has a long-standing commitment to sustainable business
practices, which are firmly embedded in its core values of
Reliability and Trust. Over the past decade, since setting the
initial emissions reduction target in 2013, Amkor has been steadily
reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by implementing initiatives
to improve energy efficiency and increase renewable energy usage at
its manufacturing facilities.
Amkor expects to regularly report progress towards the net zero
goal, reinforcing its commitment to transparency and environmental
stewardship. By establishing a net zero goal aligned with SBTi,
Amkor aims to contribute to a more sustainable future by advancing
decarbonization efforts.
