Sustainability Consultation
Green Vision
Accompanying enterprises in addressing climate and nature-related financial disclosures (TCFD, TNFD)
According to the latest statistical data published in CSRone's "2024 Taiwan and Asia-Pacific Sustainability Report Status and Trends," 78.8% (793 companies) of Taiwanese companies disclosed information in 2023 based on the "Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)" framework. However, only 1.8% (18 companies) referenced the "Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD)" framework, highlighting a significant gap in Taiwan's response to non-climate-related natural issues. Both of these areas are of increasing concern to international stakeholders.
As a company focused on sustainability consulting, Veda Business Group faces relatively low exposure to climate and nature-related risks compared to other industries. However, we believe that "quickly absorbing the latest sustainability knowledge" and "assisting Taiwanese enterprises in adopting and disclosing the latest sustainability frameworks and indicators" are our core values and mission. Therefore, to align with global sustainability consensus, we offer consulting services in four key areas under the TCFD and TNFD frameworks, ensuring that we support our clients with the most professional and forward-thinking approach, keeping them at the forefront of sustainable development.

Purchasing green electricity and climate declaration
Facing the severe challenges of climate change, Veda Business Group recognizes the importance of sustainable development. In 2020, CSRone and Greenpeace initiated the RE 10x10 Climate Declaration, committing to using 10% or more green energy of the total electricity consumption by 2025. Veda Business Group was among the first 14 small and medium-sized enterprises in Taiwan to sign this commitment.
To fulfill this pledge, Veda Business Group began purchasing solar green energy in August 2022, acquiring 7,408 kWh of electricity, which accounted for 12.9% of the total electricity consumption for that year, achieving the commitment ahead of schedule! In 2023, the green energy procurement was further expanded to 8,250 kWh, representing 12.4% of the total electricity consumption for the year. We will continue to adhere to sustainable development principles, pursuing both energy conservation and green energy procurement. We aim to increase the proportion of green energy purchases year by year and encourage more enterprises to respond to green actions, contributing collectively to the sustainable development of the Earth.


Energy resource conservation and management
As a knowledge service industry with no high-carbon product production or transportation, Veda actively begins to inventory and disclose its carbon emissions data in its daily operations. This demonstrates Veda's commitment to sustainability and helps employees and other stakeholders feel the impact of sustainable practices. According to Veda's 2023 carbon emissions statistics, the total emissions amount to 44,508.542 kg CO₂equivalent. As the data shows, electricity use is the primary source of the company's carbon emissions, followed by employee commuting and business travel. We will continue to monitor various sources of carbon emissions and actively take measures to reduce them, driving our corporate carbon reduction efforts.
