TAIPEI, Taiwan, Dec. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Group
announced today that group founder Bruce
Cheng would be leading management executives and
representatives from the Delta Electronics Foundation to the
COP21 United Nations Climate Change
Conference in Paris. To show
Delta's active support for the goals of COP21, the delegation will take part in Delta's
Road to Paris Campaign activities through a number of side
conferences and exhibitions to share the progress made by Delta in
green buildings, energy conservation, and carbon reduction with
representatives from around the world. An advance team from Delta
set up a corporate display at the COP21 main venue on November 30. On December
1, they entered the Grand Palais to begin setting up the
"Delta 21 Green Buildings Exhibition". Premiering a documentary
that follows the Foundation from Lima (COP20) to
Paris (COP21), Delta will demonstrate its strength and
continuous efforts in green buildings over the past year. During
the press conference, Delta's advance team in Paris sent back first-hand imagery and shared
their progress through an international video conference link.
Delta is expanding its involvement with COP21 this year to showcase all of Delta's
results in energy conservation and green buildings. Delta Founder
and Honorary Chairman Bruce Cheng,
Chairman Yancey Hai, CEO
Ping Cheng as well as Director of
Delta's Road to Paris Campaign and Executive Director of the Delta
Electronics Foundation Ms. Shan-Shan
Guo will all deliver speeches or take part in panel
discussions at various official forums and side conferences. They
will cover a variety of topics such as sustainable cities,
innovative energy conservation and the carbon reduction of green
buildings, as well as share Delta's strategy and success stories on
pursuing sustainability.
Group founder Bruce Cheng said
that Delta is fighting against climate change by progressively
increasing the efficiency of its power supply products. Delta's
high-efficiency products and solutions have helped customers save
nearly 14.8 billion kWh of electricity and reduced carbon emissions
by about 7.9 million tons of CO2e from 2010 to 2014, exceeding the
total annual carbon emissions of some countries. Delta also
actively supports the Commit to Action corporate carbon reduction
initiative of the CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project). Having
already reduced its energy use intensity by 50% over the last 5
years, Delta is now committed to a further reduction of 30% by
2020. He hoped that COP21 would bring
the efforts made by Delta to the attention of the world and called
for more businesses and people around the world to join in the
fight against climate change. Delta has also compiled its
experience and commitment to energy conservation into its Delta's
Plan for Action on Climate Change to show Delta's active support
for the goals of COP21,
Delta Chairman Yancey Hai noted
that "sustainable cities" is a key topic at COP21. Delta has long focused on improving the
efficiency of energy use and provides not only the expertise to the
three key requirements of Communications, Connectivity and
Computing essential to smart cities, but also high-efficiency
energy storage, smart grids, electric vehicle charging, energy
management and renewable energy solutions that can be used to build
a low-carbon power infrastructure for cities. At the "Sustainable
Innovation Forum", a key event at COP21 that will be held at the Stade de
France on December 7, Mr. Hai will take to the stage along
with representatives from national governments and leading
companies to promote their perspectives on sustainable cities.
Director of Delta's Road to Paris Campaign and Executive
Director of the Foundation Ms. Shan-Shan
Guo stated that the Delta Foundation hosted its first side
event at COP20 Lima in 2014. Their presentation on the
rebuilding of Namasia MinQuan Elementary School using green
buildings gained significant international attention. This time at
COP21 Paris, as negotiators from countries try to
reach a legally binding climate agreement, Delta will take this
opportunity on the international stage to highlight its
energy-saving practices as an enterprise through various side
events. At the same time, Delta will demonstrate its technical
strength through the exhibition with a large-screen film in the
Grand Palais in Paris. Delta will
show both its concerns in climate change and commitment to carbon
reduction.
This year's COP21 is widely
considered the most important global climate change conference in
the last decade and national governments are expected to reach a
concrete agreement on carbon reduction. Delta is also expanding its
involvement through a series of its Road to Paris Campaign
activities to include a corporate exhibition at the main venue with
the "Delta21 Green Buildings Exhibition" at the Grand Palais, as
well as the "Sustainable Innovation Forum", "Delta21 Green Building
Forum" and more.
