ESG Governance

LONGi has established a three-tier ESG governance structure covering the governance, management, and execution levels. The Board of Directors and its Strategy and Sustainability Committee serve as the highest decision-making bodies, while the Strategy Management Committee oversees the coordination and management of ESG efforts. This involves devising sustainability goals, regularly conducting assessments, reviews, and advancing implementation to ensure the Company’s activities always align with our in-house sustainability principles and targets.

Strategy and Sustainability Committee
- Managed by the committee members, the Strategy and Sustainability Committee provides comprehensive oversight and approval of the Company’s ESG strategy, medium- and long-term ESG planning, annual planning, and the formulation and execution of ESG policies. The Committee approves the annual ESG report, reviews material ESG topics and the progress toward ESG goals, and approves and delineates ESG-related risks and opportunities associated with the Company’s development.
Strategy Management Committee
- Led by the Group’s Strategy Management Center and composed of heads of relevant departments, the Committee manages the ESG development strategy, work planning, and ESG management systems through the Group’s business analysis meetings. It reviews the progress toward ESG goals, risk and opportunity assessments, identification of material topics, and the ESG report. The Company has appointed a Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) to represent the executive level in external stakeholder communications.
Sustainability and ESG Office
- Set up within the Group’s Strategy Management Center, the Office has established and regularly reviews the sustainable development and ESG governance system with feasible suggestions. It is responsible for setting strategic sustainability goals, planning, policies, and systems; identifying material ESG issues, crafting the ESG indicator framework and setting ESG goals; creating an ESG information platform; and staying abreast of the latest global sustainability concepts, policies, regulations, and actions.
Sustainability Expert Committee
- Composed of external ESG experts, the Committee is charged with researching and analyzing external ESG trends, policies, and demands facing the Company and providing suggestions. It assesses the current state of the Company’s ESG management and offers recommendations for improvement.
ESG Task Force
- The Task Force, including members from the Group’s headquarters, various functional departments, and subsidiaries or regional offices, is responsible for identifying and assessing the impact of climate change and ESG-related risks on business operations. They are tasked with implementing ESG performance goals, supporting the Sustainability and ESG Office with information disclosure and project implementation, understanding stakeholder ESG demands, and promoting the Company’s sustainability achievements.
