In 2024, it completed 5.3 MW of new solar installations in the United States and China, bringing its global total to 15.046 MW. The company is on track to meet the goal of increasing renewable energy generation capacity to as much as 30% of total electricity consumption by 2030. Additionally, TECO has implemented an internal carbon pricing mechanism at NT$1,600(approximately USD53) per ton of CO₂ and established an internal carbon fund to support low-carbon innovation and R&D. Revenue from low-carbon products now accounts for 73.8% of its total product revenue.
On the social responsibility front, TECO upholds the philosophy of shared value with stakeholders. Through the TECO Technology Foundation, the company actively promotes education, talent development, and social welfare. TECO's annual 'Net Zero Tech International Contest' draws nearly 1,000 participants from around the world, further amplifying the company's global influence in sustainability.
S&P Global emphasized that companies in the electrical components and equipment industry provide innovative solutions for improving industries efficiency in manufacturing and process. The industry plays a vital role in the global transition to clean energy and in modernizing energy infrastructure. In response, TECO has aligned its business with the 'B2B2S' model-Business to Business to Sustainability-deeply integrating ESG strategies across its operations, extending to customers and suppliers, and building a low-carbon value chain. The company is committed to advancing a broader societal shift toward sustainability and accelerating the transition to a net-zero future.

VinFast founder to inject another $1.5 billion in exchange for R&D assets

(Reuters) -VinFast's founder Pham Nhat Vuong has agreed to buy the EV maker's research and development arm for $1.52 billion, his latest cash injection into the loss-making Vietnamese company as it strives to break even by the end of 2026. The deal will involve Novatech Research and Development JSC, a Vietnam-incorporated entity, being carved out of VinFast Trading and Production JSC (VFTP), its domestic manufacturing arm, VinFast said in a filing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Novatech will hold investment costs tied to completed R&D projects, while VFTP will continue to lead EV production and future research in Vietnam. VinFast, which debuted on the Nasdaq in 2023, has faced challenges including weak consumer demand and stiff competition. It made a net loss of $712.4 million for the first quarter, although revenue jumped 150% to $656.5 million. VinFast's shares were up 1.4% to $3.59 in pre-market trade. Since its launch in 2017, the company has relied heavily on support from Vuong, who holds about 98% of shares in VinFast and its parent company Vingroup, where he serves as chairman. The transfer of shares in Novatech to Vuong, valued at nearly 40 trillion dong ($1.52 billion), comprises a fair value assessment of 17.25 trillion dong plus a premium. Intellectual property linked to Novatech's assets will be leased back to VinFast for manufacturing purposes as needed. VinFast has said it has completed the development of its first generation of EVs. Research and development costs were $81.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, down 22.3% year-on-year. The EV maker has set a delivery target of 200,000 cars for 2025, more than double its deliveries in 2024. Most of VinFast's deliveries are in the Vietnamese market.

Earnings live: Foxconn buoyed by AI demand, Birkenstock beats, Deere sinks

Second quarter earnings season is winding down, and with most of the reports in, the results have been mostly positive.

Companies had a lower expectation bar to clear coming into the quarter — analysts expected S&P 500 earnings to rise 5% in Q2, the slowest pace of earnings growth since Q4 2023 — amid President Trump's tariffs, stocks' lofty valuations, and uncertainty about the health of the US economy. Earnings this week include Circle (CRCL), Lenovo ( AMC (AMC), Cava (CAVA), Cisco (CSCO), CoreWeave (CRWV), Deere (DE), On (ONON), and Oklo (OKLO). Here are the latest updates from corporate America.

On stock jumps on sales beat, CEO weighs in on tariffs Footwear company On Holding (ONON) stock gained 7% in early trading after beating second quarter sales estimates and raising its full-year sales guidance.

The company reported a diluted loss per share of CHF 0.12, a loss of around $0.15. In 2025, net sales are expected to be up at least 31% year over year on a constant currency basis.

"On has a very strong momentum across the world," CEO Martin Hoffmann told Yahoo Finance, "This is most visible in our growth of our DTC channel, which has seen 55% growth in the quarter." Investors were pleased with On's ability to mitigate the tariffs successfully on its key sourcing region, Vietnam. "Our industry has always been exposed to tariffs in the US," Hoffmann said. "This is nothing new for us. ... We have been paying around 20% of most of our imports, and now this number goes up to 40% for importations from Vietnam and 39% for Indonesia." Hoffmann said the company benefits from being a premium player, as consumers are willing to pay up for innovation. He added, "We are a premium brand and we want to be the most premium global sportswear brand. We keep on investing in quality, in our innovation, in our customer experiences, in sustainability, in social impact. ... The same is for price increases. We don't need additional price increases this year to mitigate the impact."

Plug Power stock falls on earnings miss Primary hydrogen player Plug Power (PLUG) continues to grow its top line, but a larger-than-expected loss disappointed in the second quarter. Plug Power reported a $0.20 loss per share, a wider loss than the $0.15 per share Wall Street expected, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.
