TAIPEI, Oct. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Electronics was named as one of the Best Taiwan Global Brands for the fifth consecutive year at an award ceremony announcing the results of a brand survey by Interbrand and the Taiwan Industrial Development Bureau.

From 2010 to 2014, Delta successfully reduced its electricity intensity (electricity use per product value) by 50% compared to 2009. By engaging in the CDP's Commit to Action initiative, Delta promises a further 30% reduction in electricity intensity by 2020 to fulfill its mission: "To provide innovative, clean, and energy-efficient solutions for a better tomorrow." Delta's accumulated energy saving solutions and practices across the world have become its unique brand assets.
