Carbon Management
LOTTE Biologics established Scope 1 and Scope 2 inventories for both the Songdo Bio Campus in Korea (LBK) and the Syracuse Bio Campus in
the U.S. (LBA). The company monitors greenhouse gas emissions and renewable energy usage and plans to further expand monitoring coverage
alongside facility growth while setting Scope 3 emissions targets.

Energy Transition
Solar
The Songdo Bio Campus integrated renewable energy from the construction phase,
including the installation of rooftop solar systems. Through this approach, LOTTE
Biologics has steadily increased the share of renewable energy across the site.
Conventional Solar Panels (PV)
- High-efficiency panels designed for power generation
- Convert sunlight directly into electricity
Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV)
- Solar panels designed with architectural aesthetics in mind
- Integrated directly into the building structure
Hydroelectric
The Syracuse Bio Campus sources 10.3% of its total energy consumption from
hydropower as of the end of 2025.
Natural Resource Management & Certifications
LOTTE Biologics’ Songdo Bio Campus is located in Songdo, Incheon, where the
site’s proximity to coastal ecosystems requires careful environmental consideration.
As Songdo was designated as a wetland protection area under the Ramsar Convention in
2014, the company has established stricter internal wastewater management standards
—beyond regulatory requirements—to minimize environmental impact and preserve local
biodiversity.
Water Quality Standards
| Category | Effluent Discharge Standard (Zone B) | Clean Area | LOTTE Biologics Standard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Organic Carbon (TOC) | ≤50mg/L | ≤50mg/L | ≤25mg/L |
| Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) | ≤80mg/L | ≤80mg/L | ≤40mg/L |
| Suspended Solids (SS) | ≤80mg/L | ≤80mg/L | ≤40mg/L |
| Total Phosphorus (T-P) | ≤8mg/L | ≤8mg/L | ≤4mg/L |
| Total Nitrogen (T-N) | ≤60mg/L | ≤60mg/L | ≤30mg/L |
LOTTE Biologics minimizes environmental impact and complies with applicable environmental regulations
both domestically and globally.
