Reduce carbon emissions
We deeply recognize that climate change is a major global challenge of our time. Actively responding to climate change and promoting a low-carbon transformation is an inescapable environmental responsibility for enterprises, and it is also the key to building long-term sustainable development competitiveness. We commit to integrating climate action into the core of our company strategy, planning and implementing carbon reduction paths with a scientific and rigorous attitude, and striving to lead the medical device industry towards a green and low-carbon future.
To demonstrate our company's ambition and leadership in responding to climate change, Zhenode Medical's carbon reduction target was approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) in 2025, becoming the first manufacturing enterprise in the Chinese medical device industry to have its target confirmed by this international authoritative initiative. This also indicates that our carbon reduction target is consistent with the scientific emission reduction target of the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to 1.5°C to 2°C.
This commitment not only fully complies with the requirements of the Paris Agreement, but also marks that Zhende Medical's low-carbon transformation strategy has officially aligned with the most advanced international scientific standards, providing a clear and reliable roadmap for the company's long-term carbon management. We will establish a transparent carbon information disclosure mechanism and regularly announce the progress of emission reduction to truly demonstrate the climate leadership of the medical and health enterprise through practical actions.
To achieve the SBTi target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 42% by 2030, we have transformed its strategic commitment into specific and quantifiable annual action plans. Additionally, we plan to increase the proportion of green electricity usage to 30% by 2028 and reduce production line energy consumption by more than 15% through intelligentization and renovation. We have deeply explored the energy-saving potential in each production process and actively promoted the green transformation of the energy structure, laying a solid practical foundation for the realization of the carbon reduction target.
