LONGi Reaffirms its 'Zero-carbon Plant' Pledge at UN Biodiversity Conference 2022

LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (LONGi) , one of the world's leading solar technology companies, reaffirmed its 'Zero-carbon Plant' pledge and introduced the company's accomplishments in wildlife protection in Africa at the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference in Montreal, Canada.

Li Zhenguo, Founder and President of LONGi, addressed a sideline event organized by the Global Environmental Institute (GEI) during these second phase meetings of COP15.

Li Zhenguo shared his insights on how corporate actions and commitments can help bolster biodiversity protection. He provided an update on LONGi's Baoshan production base in southwest China's Yunnan Province, the pilot plant for LONGi's net-zero transition.

At the first phase meetings of 2021 UN Biodiversity Conference (COP 15) held in China's Kunming, LONGi announced an ambitious plan to convert its Baoshan plant in Yunnan into its first 'Zero-carbon Plant' by 2023.

Li said the Baoshan plant is one of LONG's most important upstream manufacturing facilities of the PV industrial chain. "We are making steady progress to deliver our very first zero-carbon plant in Baoshan," he added.

Li said LONGi would increase the use of renewable power in the Baoshan plant to 100% for day-to-day manufacturing and operations, up from 90.91% green electricity use in 2021.
