On May 14-15, the first PV Industry ESG Value Implementation and Practice Summit was held in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. LONGi Green Energy was invited to attend the summit. Dr. Xie Tian, General Manager of the Strategic Management Center at LONGi, participated in a high-level dialogue, sharing insights on ESG strategic design, green supply chains, global compliance, and whole-industry-chain collaboration, demonstrating the leadership role of a premier industry player.

The summit was guided by the ESG Research Institute of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, hosted by the PV Leader Innovation Forum, and organized by GCL System Integration. The event focused on ESG standard unification, practical implementation, green supply chains, and global compliance, exploring pathways to sustainable development for the PV industry. During the summit, LONGi Green Energy, together with 12 organizations including the Solar Energy Research Institute of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Quality Certification Center, GCL System Integration, Tongwei, and Trina Solar, jointly launched a PV Industry ESG Action Joint Initiative to promote the standardization, systematization, and normalization of ESG development in the industry.

In his dialogue remarks, Dr. Xie Tian stated that ESG has become a mandatory standard and core competitiveness for the high-quality development of the PV industry, supply chain stability, and international collaboration. Driven by both green manufacturing and smart manufacturing, LONGi has established benchmark zero-carbon factories. Through commitments to international climate action initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), LONGi has built a whole value-chain low-carbon management system, leveraging its role as a supply chain leader to drive green upgrades across upstream and downstream operations. ESG is a key lever for breaking through low-price competition and achieving brand globalization, helping China's PV industry transition from exporting products to exporting brands and value. The PV industry should unify standards, strengthen collaboration, and transform ESG from a superficial indicator into tangible value, supporting the dual-carbon goals and global energy transition.

As a global PV leader, LONGi Green Energy continues to practice the LIGHT sustainable development philosophy. It has published nine consecutive social responsibility/sustainable development reports, became the first Chinese PV company to receive SBTi 2030 target certification, and has been repeatedly included in the Fortune China ESG Impact List. ESG is deeply integrated into LONGi's strategy, operations, and supply chain processes.

Looking ahead, LONGi Green Energy will focus on technological innovation and green development, deepen ESG collaboration with industry chain partners, jointly build standards, foster an ecosystem, share value, and continue contributing to the high-quality sustainable development of the PV industry and the global zero-carbon transition.
