WELLBEING FOR NATURE
WITH THE CORE OF BUILDING GREEN AND LOW-CARBON TRAVEL METHODS, WE WILL PRACTICE GREEN OPERATIONS, SUPPORT THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY, AND EXPLORE BUSINESS ACTIONS THAT ARE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY AND NATURE-POSITIVE.
In 2023
- We advanced renewable energy adoption, installing 76 megawatts of photovoltaic capacity at our Wuhu plant. This generated 198,900 megawatt- hours of electricity with a 93.9% self-consumption rate, reducing carbon emissions by approximately 140,000 tons.
- We promoted green packaging, with 76.2% of 42,164.7 tons of packaging materials sourced from renewable or recycled materials.
- Optimizing logistics helped save over 10 million RMB in fuel costs and cut carbon emissions by more than 4,000 tons.
- Chery supported the circular economy, achieving a recyclability rate of over 95% and a reusability rate of over 85% for all vehicle models.
- Our commitment to environmental management earned us three national-level "green factory" certifications in China.
- We also strengthened biodiversity conservation by signing a memorandum with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) to explore ecological restoration models for forests, wetlands, and oceans.
RESPONDING TO CLIMATE CHANGE
Chery has strengthened carbon accounting and product carbon footprint management, completing calculations for 72 versions under the Technical Standard on Lifecycle Carbon Emission Accounting of Passenger Vehicles (ISO 14067:2018). In 2023, Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions totaled 503,467.9 tons of CO₂ equivalent.
We continue to advance our new energy strategy, expanding our portfolio with the Super Hybrid Platform, the E0X high-performance electric platform, and 135 related new technologies.
SUPPORTING LOW-CARBON MOBILITY
Chery is committed to reducing carbon emissions throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle. We optimize energy use, enhance clean technologies, and upgrade equipment to reduce emissions in manufacturing. At the end of a vehicle's lifecycle, we promote scrapping, recycling, and reuse. By the end of 2023, all Chery models achieved a 95% recyclability rate and an 85% reusability rate.
IMPLEMENTING GREEN OPERATIONS
We prioritize protection, involve all staff, and pursue green development, advancing low-carbon production to reduce resource consumption and environmental impact.
We have strengthened environmental management through organizational mechanisms, policies, and supervision. This includes establishing a Safety and Environmental Protection Committee, building an integrated management platform, and incorporating energy conservation, emission reduction, and ecological protection into performance assessments.
We also integrate biodiversity conservation into our operations, ensuring the health of local ecosystems.
