Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments' new RFAB2 semiconductor wafer plant in Richardson, Texas, achieves LEED Gold v4 certification, marking TI's
fourth globally and the first U.S. semiconductor fab to meet stringent sustainability standards with a focus on water and electricity
conservation and healthy workplace design.
Sherman is preparing for Texas Instruments' $30 billion manufacturing plant with $500 million in infrastructure projects, including a
$300 million industrial wastewater facility and an 11-mile pipeline to supply water crucial for chip production. Roads like the $17
million Shepherd Drive expansion are also being upgraded to support efficient employee access to the facility, set to open in 2025.

TSMC
Apple, along with TSMC and Murata, expands its Restore Fund with a combined investment of $280 million to co-fund natural carbon
neutralization projects, aiming for high-quality carbon removal and ecosystem protection as part of Apple's 2030 carbon neutrality
goal.
Construction of TSMC's new chip packaging facility in Chiayi County, Taiwan, has been paused due to the discovery of archaeological
ruins, delaying its 2028 mass production start, as TSMC navigates preservation planning amidst rising demand for CoWoS packaging
from Nvidia and AMD.
Due to overwhelming demand from tech giants like NVIDIA, Apple, AMD, and Qualcomm, TSMC's 3nm chip supply is reserved until
2026, prompting considerations for price hikes on AI hardware, despite TSMC's efforts to expand production to 180,000 wafers per
month and maintain strategic partnerships.
