In order to promote GHG management scheme, Taiwan Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) announced the “GHG Emissions Reporting Rule” and the “GHG Emissions Reporting-Designated Stationary Sources”, which were pursuant to the “Air Pollution Control Act” on 2012. Therefore, EPA could analyze the emissions information from the mandatory report of specific entities. After the “GHG Reduction and Management Act” was promulgated on July, 2015, the above-mentioned rules were transferred to the “GHG Emissions Registry and Accounting Rule” and “GHG Emissions Registry and Accounting –1 st Group of Designated GHG Emission Sources” on July, 2016. The 1st group mainly includes electric power, steel, cement, oil refining, semiconductor, and thin film transistor liquid crystal display industries.
