LONGi achieved a score of 72 in the 2025 S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), securing its inclusion in the Sustainability Yearbook 2026. This evaluation of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance marks a 14-point increase from the previous year. This score places LONGi in the top 4 percent of the global semiconductors and semiconductor equipment industry. LONGi is the only company in this sector to be named an Industry Mover, a distinction recognizing the highest year on year improvement in sustainability practices.

LONGi is one of only 20 companies from the semiconductors and semiconductor equipment industry that meet the strict global assessment criteria

The Yearbook highlights companies that demonstrate verifiable ESG performance. In 2025, over 9,200 companies were assessed globally, resulting in 848 companies qualifying for inclusion. In the semiconductors and semiconductor equipment industry, 289 companies were evaluated, and only 20 met the criteria for the 2026 Yearbook. LONGi secured its position by achieving a high overall score and demonstrating transparent reporting in its environmental and corporate governance practices.

Focus on climate strategy and waste reduction drives the improved sustainability score

ESG metrics are increasingly utilized to measure long-term corporate stability and supply chain responsibility within the photovoltaic industry. Data from the 2025 assessment shows that the score improvement for LONGi is driven primarily by environmental factors. The most significant drivers are climate strategy, waste and pollutant management, and biodiversity protection. Guided by its Board of Directors and Strategy and Sustainability Committee, LONGi conducts environmental impact assessments before initiating all projects to manage operational impacts and control emissions. To reduce waste generated during production, the company focuses on source management and the compliant use of solid waste.

Transparent reporting on net zero and biodiversity goals solidifies international ESG alignment

In terms of sustainability disclosure, the company released its 2024 to 2025 Climate Action White Paper. This document aligns with the IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures standard and outlines the pathway to achieve net zero emissions across the entire value chain by 2050. Furthermore, LONGi became an Adopter of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) in 2025. The company released its first TNFD report, establishing long-term goals to achieve net zero loss of biodiversity and zero deforestation by 2050. LONGi plans to further integrate these ESG standards into its research and development, manufacturing processes and global supply chain management to support stable business operations.
