VSUN SOLAR today announced that it has furthered its commitment to environmental transparency by disclosing its environmental impact through CDP, a global non-profit that runs the world’s leading environmental disclosure platform.
VSUN is proud to be the first company in Vietnam to disclose environmental transparency to stakeholders through CDP platform in 2022. VSUN has disclosed through CDP since 2022, and for 2022 completed CDP’s CLIMATE CHANGE and WATER SECURITY questionnaires.
Disclosing data around environmental impact is now a business norm. More than 680 financial institutions with US$130 trillion in assets and 280 purchasing organizations representing US$6.4 trillion in procurement spend requested environmental data from companies through CDP. A record 18,700+ companies responded in 2022.
By disclosing through CDP, VSUN is prepared to respond to the increasing demand for environmental transparency from financial institutions, customers and policymakers. In its disclosure, VSUN shared information of energy saving and emission reduction, solid waste disposal, wasted water management.
VSUN has always been committed to focusing on the renewable energy industry with greener, cleaner, and smarter solutions and making contributions to sustainable development. VSUN also places energy saving, emission reduction, and environmental protection at a strategic level which is related to the survival and development of enterprises.
VSUN's participation in the carbon disclosure project is not merely because of VSUN's concern for climate change and the sense of responsibility but also can sort out the company's carbon emission management again with the help of CDP, which also has a positive effect on self-monitoring, and on promoting VSUN's management system.
Dexter Galvin, Global Director of Corporations and Supply Chains at CDP, commented, “Another year of extreme weather, including floods, droughts and record temperatures, has shown us that climate change is already posing a real and increasing risk to companies and their supply chains. Companies have a fundamental role to play in securing a sustainable net-zero, deforestation-free and water-secure world. It is only through measuring their environmental impact, risks and opportunities that they can manage them and prepare for the future. By disclosing through CDP, VSUN SOLAR has taken a vital first step. I look forward to their continued dedication to transparency and action for the benefit of all people and planet.”
