Energy Management
Energy Management Procedure
As the global economy continues to grow, energy demands follow suit, which means energy costs have continued to rise. With regard to energy conservation and efficiency improvement, Sinyi Realty consider its business operation direction, relevant laws and regulations of government, and internal and external concerns of stakeholders. We follow the sustainability development policy to establish an energy management team, check the equipment and energy usage, and set energy-conservation targets to improve effectiveness.
Energy Management Measure: Introducing EMS (headquarters building and branches)
In order to more fully exercise our commitment to corporate social responsibility, Sinyi Realty has introduced the EMS in the headquarters building since 2012, and introduced the “DOMI-Smart EMS" in the branches since 2019. Through visualization services and air conditioners and lighting control, we can master energy information to achieve optimal energy usage and look forward to further improvement of energy efficiency.
Energy-saving, Green Mark Certified Products Used at Branches
- Purchasing Green Mark or Energy Label IT equipment
- Using green building materials or Green Mark certified materials
- Renting Green Mark certified photocopiers
- Using environmentally friendly toner cartridges
- Using environmentally friendly variable frequency drive air conditioners at all operating locations
- Installed energy saving lights
- Reducing lighting usage and using high natural illumination in operating location designs
- Regularly inspecting electrical equipment
- Use glass and light-colored building materials to decorate in the offices to reduce the use of lighting equipment; using heat insulation paper on the window glasses to reduce temperature and energy consumption of air-conditioning
- Replace the equipment of headquarters building to reduce electricity consumption and improve efficiency, such as the Water Chiller Units in 2019 and the Cooling Tower in 2021
Sinyi Realty has continuously promoted green procurement over the years. The green procurement expenditure in 2025 was NT$244 million, and the cumulative green procurement expenditure for energy-saving and environmentally friendly products reached NT$824 million from 2008 to 2025.
Introducing ISO 50001 Energy Management System
In 2016, Sinyi Realty introduced ISO 50001 Energy Management Systems (including headquarters building and demonstration branch), and conducted third-party verification every year. Since 2016, in response to the revision of ISO 50001 standard being integrated with the environmental management system, Sinyi has taken its own situation and the stakeholders concerns into consideration, and has conducted a comprehensive review of energy consumption of equipment. It is hoped that through the PDCA process, Sinyi can improve energy use efficiency, and realize energy conservation and operation costs reduction.
Through the energy audit, we found that the air-conditioning equipment in headquarters building consumes the most energy and has potential opportunities to improve efficiency. We replaced the equipment of headquarters building to reduce electricity consumption and improve efficiency, such as the Water Chiller Units in 2019 and the Cooling Tower in 2021. In addition, we are planning to increase green electricity consumption year by year, so as to realize our 2030 goals of “achieving Net Zero and 100% renewable energy consumption”.

Energy Management Performance
Sinyi Realty is a service company and the operation place is general offices. There are no manufacturing locations in the business operation areas. Therefore, the main energy we consume in our operation is electricity, a small part of which is gasoline and diesel. Because Sinyi’s carbon emissions of electricity consumption account for over 90% of GHG emissions (category 1&2), we set the carbon emissions of electricity consumption per person as an energy baseline indicator to implement our carbon management.Since 2022, Sinyi Realty has purchased solar energy and wheeled it to the headquarters building and selected branches. To further increase the number of branches using renewable energy, we have participated in Taiwan Power Company’s small-scale green electricity program since 2024. This not only diversifies our renewable energy sources, but also helps us gradually increase the proportion of renewable energy use toward achieving the goal of 100% renewable energy by 2030.
In 2025, Sinyi Realty achieved:
GHG emissions of electricity consumption dropped by 26.66% and 48.26% compared to last year and the base year (2017) respectively.
Renewable energy purchased was 4,942 MWh, which increased by 22% from the previous year, accounting for 44% of total electricity consumed.
