As a global leader in standard power supply solutions, MEAN WELL Group has long been committed to sustainable development. The "I Love Tamsui River" initiative, first launched in 2011, has been held annually for 15 consecutive years. The 2025 event took place on May 3 at the east riverside plaza under the Bitan Suspension Bridge in Xindian. This year’s event continued the five-year project titled "Ocean Forest: Protecting the Tamsui River from Shezidao Wetlands" (2024–2028), with a strong focus on ecological conservation and sustainability education.
   
MEAN WELL founder Mr. Jerry Lin views the Tamsui River as the “mother river” of Taipei and has dedicated many years to raising awareness of river restoration. The event brought together the collective efforts of MEAN WELL, POWERNEX, SHARE WELL, and the MEAN WELL Foundation. MEAN WELL Director Patrick Wang and several senior executives also in attendance. Ms. Wu Yin-Chuen, President of CommonWealth Magazine, also attended and praised MEAN WELL’s consistent and practical sustainability actions, expressing hope that schools of fish will return to the river by 2028.
  The event featured a variety of activities, including a fun run, cycling tour, ecological walk, and a green lifestyle market promoting sustainable practices such as reusable cups, wheat straws, and plastic-free water stations. The event successfully reduced the use of approximately 816.7 plastic bottles and cut carbon emissions by 124.9 kilograms—equivalent to the annual carbon absorption of 6.3 trees (source: MY HONG TE). These efforts helped visualize the impact of environmental action. Employees and their families actively participated, learning about local ecology and culture through hands-on experiences.
  Special performances by the Ten Drum Art Percussion Group and a magician were arranged on-site, attracting enthusiastic participation from both children and adults, creating a lively and energetic atmosphere. One of the event's highlights was the dragon boat race, where four teams competed, showcasing the spirit of sustainability and unity. In the end, the 'Beyond Future Team' claimed the championship, while the 'SDG Sustainability Team' secured second place. Regardless of the outcome, all participants paddled with determination, embodying the spirit of teamwork and solidarity. The event concluded successfully, reflecting the trust and commitment to sustainable development shared by the partners. Looking ahead, the goal is to collaborate with partners to build the SDG Industry Value Network and create over 100 ESG-driven companies, working together to promote sustainable development.
