Delta fulfills its corporate mission in our daily operations. In the past five
years, Delta's high-efficiency products and solutions have contributed to a
total savings of 14.8 billion kWh of electricity and a reduction of carbon
emissions by about 7.9 Million tons of CO2e. The electricity intensity of
Delta's major plants has decreased by 50% compared to 2009. Moreover, energy
savings from Delta's 12 worldwide green buildings was as high as 13 million kWh
in 2014.
In addition, Delta is a global citizen making an impact with CSR in addressing
global climate change issues. In 2014 the Delta Electronics Foundation joined
the side event of COP20 in Lima, Peru and shared with hundreds of international
representatives its success in rebuilding the Namasia district's Min-Chuan
Elementary School in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, into a diamond level green campus. The
new building will help prevent damage and losses from future natural disasters.
The Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes were launched in 1999 as the first global
sustainability benchmarks. The indexes are offered cooperatively by RobecoSAM
and S&P Dow Jones Indices. Each year, they invite the world's 2,500 largest
companies, measured by free-float market capitalization, from the 59 sectors to
report on their sustainability performance. The result of the Corporate
Sustainability Assessment provides an in-depth analysis of economic,
environmental and social criteria. The indexes serve as benchmarks for investors
who integrate sustainability considerations into their portfolios, and provide
an effective engagement platform for companies who want to adopt sustainable
best practices.
