TECO Electric & Machinery Co. and Zhen Ding Technology Holding are teaming up to slash energy consumption across printed circuit board manufacturing facilities, as Taiwan’s industrial giants respond to mounting pressure for greener operations.
The partnership follows successful energy-saving projects at Zhen Ding’s plants in Shenzhen and Qinhuangdao that cut electricity costs by NT$6.83 million ($213,000) annually and reduced carbon emissions by 1,800 tons, the companies said Wednesday in Taipei.
The collaboration will focus on upgrading motor drives, water circulation, ventilation, and air compression systems. TECO will also help implement solar power and energy storage solutions across Zhiding’s manufacturing network.
The agreement marks TECO’s latest push to expand its industrial energy management business. The company aims to help Zhen Ding reduce its carbon footprint by more than 5,000 tons annually through equipment monitoring and predictive maintenance powered by Internet of Things technology.
Taiwan’s PCB makers face growing demands from international customers to decrease their environmental impact as major tech companies commit to carbon neutrality goals.
