The parameter standard for exhaust gas: Nitrogen Oxides (Nox): 820, Sulphur Oxides (Sox): 805, Particulate Matter (PM): 246. 2.The sources of exhaust gas emission includes the exhaust gas emission from production and vehicles. The data is calculated based on the actual amount of emission and the Reporting guidance on Environmental KPIs published by HKEX. 3.The data refers to the actual amount of non-hazardous wastes generated. 4.The data refers to the actual amount of hazardous waste generated. 5.Sources of Scope 1 – direct greenhouse gas emission includes the fuel combustion for stationary sources and vehicle, and the consumption of refrigerants, while the reduction of greenhouse gas comes from tree planting in the production plant. The data is calculated based on the Chinese national standards GB/T32151.10 - 2015 Requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions accounting and reporting – Part 10: Chemical production enterprise and the Reporting guidance on Environmental KPIs published by the HKEX. The conversion factors used in the calculation of emissions from the combustion of fuels in stationary sources, vehicles, and refrigeration and air conditioning equipment are based on the “Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Chemical Production Enterprises” and “Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Land Transportation Enterprises” provided by the National Development and Reform Commission ("NDRC") as well as the Sixth Assessment Report provided by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). 6.Sources of Scope 2 – indirect greenhouse gas emission of energy includes the greenhouse gas emission involved in purchased electricity. The data is calculated based on "2021Carbon Dioxide Emission Factor of Electricity" issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of PRC and National Bureau of Statistics of China on 12th April 2024. The conversion factors used in the calculation are based on the Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Enterprises, Power Generation Facilities (Revised in 2022). 7.Sources of Scope 3 – other indirect greenhouse gas emission includes the greenhouse gas emission generated from employee business air travel, electricity used for fresh water processing by the Water Services Department and sewage processing by the Drainage Services Department, and greenhouse gas emissions from paper disposal. Carbon emissions from employee business air travel are calculated using the carbon emissions calculator of the International Civil Aviation Organization. Carbon emissions from the electricity used for fresh water processing by the Water Services Department and sewage processing by the Drainage Services Department are calculated based on the research published by Tsinghua University in "China Urban Water Supply System Energy Consumption Study" and the statistical analysis and quantitative identification of the energy consumption law of urban sewage treatment plants in China published by Tsinghua University and the National Urban Water Supply and Drainage Engineering Technology Research Center. The carbon emissions from paper disposal are calculated based on Appendix 2 of the "Environmental Key Performance Indicators Reporting Guidelines" published by the HKEX. 8.The calculation of total energy consumption includes fuel combustion for stationary sources and vehicle, and purchased electricity. The data is calculated based on the Guidelines for Accounting and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Road Transport Corporation (Trial) issued by the National Development and Reform Commission of the People's Republic of China, the Chinese national standards Gb17930 - 2016 Gasoline in Vehicles and the Chinese national standards GB/T32151.10 - 2015 Requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions accounting and reporting – Part 10: Chemical production enterprise. The conversion factors used in the calculation of fuel consumption for staionary equipment (including production, cafeteria, and heating), vehicle fuel consumption, and purchased electricity consumption are based on the “Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Chemical Production Enterprises” and “Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Land Transportation Enterprises” provided by the National Development and Reform Commission ("NDRC"), as well as the Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting and Reporting for Enterprises, Power Generation Facilities (Revised in 2022). 9.The data refers to actual water consumption record. 10.The saved volume of purchased water is the amount of water saved through water reuse. 11.In order to further improve the completeness of water resources data, we have optimized the scope of water consumption statistics for 2023 to ensure that the data more accurately reflects actual operating conditions. 12.The data is based on the Group's actual usage records of packaging materials.
