The Fortune China ESG Impact List has been compiled for the third consecutive year, and this year's selection process was opened to foreign enterprises operating in China for the first time. This change not only broadens the scope of the selection, but also reflects the popularity and importance of the ESG concept globally. The fact that JinkoSolar's inclusion on the list is not only an international acknowledge of its efforts in the ESG field, but also a full affirmation of the crucial role of the clean energy industry in promoting sustainable development.
In fact, in addition to this recognition, JinkoSolar has also achieved significant achievements over the past year. JinkoSolar became the first photovoltaic group company worldwide to pass the three major target reviews of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, JinkoSolar was awarded “Management Level – ‘B'” in the Climate Questionnaire by CDP, an authoritative international environmental non-profit organisation, and EcoVadis, the world's leading sustainability rating agency, awarded JinkoSolar the “Silver Medal” for sustainability. Moreover, in the 2023 ESG rating results, JinkoSolar, as the photovoltaic company in China to achieve a leap in ratings within a year, received a “BBB” rating from the international authoritative index agency MSCI, fully demonstrating the company's strength and progress in the ESG field.
It is worth noting that the Tiger Neo modules of the Neo Green series, released by JinkoSolar at the beginning of this year, are all produced in a “zero-carbon factory” certified by TÜV Rheinland. This achievement not only showcases the JinkoSolar's commitment to environmental protection in the product production process but also reflects its leadership in promoting the industry's green transformation.
With the increasing emphasis on ESG concepts around the world, JinkoSolar will continue to enhance its innovation and execution capabilities. By continuously advancing technology and responsible business practices, JinkoSolar aims to lead industry enterprises in jointly raising standards in environmental protection, social responsibility, and governance transparency. This effort is in line with promoting the entire photovoltaic industry and the broader socio-economic sphere towards sustainable development.
