Delta participates in official side event of COP26 Glasgow
Delta is participating in the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) Glasgow, sharing its experience in deploying solutions that foster e-mobility, echoing its ‘Sustainable Conservation, Nurturing Life’ concept. The environmental documentaries ‘The Birth’ and ‘Life in the Coral Reefs’ are also being displayed at the Blue Zone of COP26 to highlight to global stakeholders the importance of preserving marine ecosystems and the dangers they are facing by pollution and ocean warming.
Ms Shan Shan Guo, vice chairman of the Delta Electronics Foundation, said: “Since its foundation 50 years ago, Delta has been continuously committed to the development of technologies capable of lowering mankind’s carbon footprint. This year, our concept ‘Sustainable Conservation, Nurturing Life’, underscores how we can help reach mankind’s goal of limiting global warming within 1.5°C through energy savings. Furthermore, we have carried out endeavours that, not only protect marine life, but also that encourage our stakeholders to actively contribute in this regard.
“We hope our focus and experience help inspire key participants at COP26 to further actions that secure a sustainable environment for our next generations. Three recipients of Delta Electronics Foundation scholarships currently studying environmental protection-related postgraduate studies in the UK have also joined us at COP26. We hope the valuable knowledge they will acquire in those programs and in COP26 finds its way to help advance Taiwan’s environmental goals.”
Wim Chan, executive director of the Delta Electronics Foundation, said: “E-Mobility and microgrids are key solutions for green cities and carbon neutrality. Delta provides automotive powertrain and systems for the electric vehicles (EV) of some of the world’s largest automakers while it also integrates renewable energy, energy storage and V2G (vehicle-to-grid) EV charging systems to enable microgrids capable of enhancing the energy resilience of cities, especially during natural disasters. This year, our foundation will set up pollution monitoring in cooperation with EV operators to detect PM2.5 and CO levels in streets and ultimately facilitate better air quality for city habitants.”
Delta has now participated as an official UNFCCC observer at the UN Climate Change Conferences for 14 straight years.
