Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China released the 2025 Green Manufacturing List, and the Company was successfully awarded the title of “National Green Factory” for its remarkable achievements in green and low‑carbon transformation. This national honor not only highly recognizes the Company’s long-term commitment to sustainable development but also marks a milestone breakthrough in building a green manufacturing system featuring low‑carbon energy use, high‑efficiency resource utilization, clean production, eco‑friendly products and intensive land use.

In the process of building a “National Green Factory”, the Company has explored a path of green and intelligent manufacturing featuring “digital-intelligent integration and full-chain control”.

First, greening at the source. The Company has comprehensively promoted the use of environmentally friendly water-based coatings to significantly reduce the generation of pollutants from the production process. Additionally, a distributed photovoltaic power generation project has been completed, with continuous efforts to increase the proportion of green energy usage.

Second, efficient governance. Relying on advanced end-of-pipe treatment facilities, a full-process VOCs management system covering “source substitution-process control-end-of-pipe treatment-recycling utilization” has been established. The purification efficiency of VOCs has been stably maintained at over 98%, achieving ultra-low emissions.

Third, intelligent carbon control. A “Smart Energy and Carbon Management Platform” has been built to enable precise measurement and refined control of energy consumption and carbon emissions data, driving continuous improvement in energy utilization efficiency. Furthermore, the Company is also advancing the construction of a smart power control system, leveraging the Mimic design philosophy to intelligently manage electricity usage on the production site.

Fourth, resource recycling. By classifying and reusing steel scraps and implementing a water recycling system, the green concept of “turning waste into treasure” is integrated into every production detail.

Fifth, green products development. The Company has achieved remarkable results in design and R&D, focusing on developing new energy and low-carbon vessels powered by LNG, methanol, and ammonia, with multiple ship types designed and built reaching internationally leading levels. It also places emphasis on the carbon emissions of its vessels, having tracked and calculated the carbon footprint of shipbuilding processes for consecutive years. The Company's core green indicators rank among the top in the national shipbuilding industry, fully demonstrating its leading strength in the field of green manufacturing.

The Company will seize this opportunity to further implement the national carbon peaking and carbon neutrality strategy, respond to the call for the construction of “zero carbon factories”, empower high-quality development with green and intelligent manufacturing, continuously deepen green technology innovation, actively play a demonstrative and leading role, drive collaborative carbon reduction across the upstream and downstream of the industry chain, enhance the competitiveness of the entire supply chain's carbon footprint, and contribute more wisdom and strength to building a beautiful China and safeguarding the blue sea and clear sky.
