LONGi has been recognized in the 2026 edition of the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook, ranking in the top 4% of players in the ‘Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment’ segment, based on its outstanding performance in the organisation’s 2025 Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA). LONGi has also been identified as an ‘Industry Mover’ within the sector, having achieved the highest relative year on year CSA Score improvement.
The S&P Sustainability Yearbook recognizes companies that have demonstrated outstanding ESG performance in the previous year’s assessment, with over 9,200 eligible companies assessed globally during 2025, 848 going on to qualify as Yearbook members, including 81 Chinese businesses. In the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment segment, a total of 289 companies were assessed, with only 20 included in the Yearbook.
LONGi’s comprehensive recognition is based on its commitment to sustainable development. Guided by its Board of Directors and Strategy and Sustainability Committee as the highest governance body, the company continues to develop its practices across the five pillars of its “LIGHT” sustainability philosophy: ‘Lead, Innovative, Green, Harmonious and Trustworthy’. The scoring in the S&P CSA report is most heavily weighted in favour of the Environmental and Governance & Economic dimensions, the main drivers being “Climate Strategy,” “Waste & Pollutants” and “Biodiversity”.
In terms of environmental impact, LONGi conducts assessments before initiating all projects, systematically analysing, assessing and managing impact during project operations and adopting effective measures to control potential pollutant emissions. To reduce waste generated during production and operations, the company focuses on source management and encourages the compliant and comprehensive use of solid waste to advance sustainable activity.
Regarding sustainability disclosure, it released a “2024–2025 Climate Action White Paper”, comprehensively aligned with the International Transition Plan Task Force Disclosure Framework and the IFRS S2 climate-related disclosures standard, systematically outlining the company’s strategic ambition and implementation pathway to achieve net-zero emissions across the entire value chain by 2050. In addition, LONGi became an adopter of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) in 2025 and subsequently released its first TNFD report with long-term goals of achieving net zero loss of biodiversity and zero deforestation by 2050.
