Water Resource Management

Faraday obtains 100% of its water resources from the Taiwan Water Corporation, as there are no manufacturing facilities. Water usage is primarily for general domestic purposes and air conditioning systems. The discharged water consists only of regular domestic wastewater, with no process-related wastewater generated.
