Roadmap to Net Zero: Science-Based Governance and Value Chain Enablement

Through strategic planning, operational excellence, and value-chain collaboration, we are advancing a scalable low-carbon transformation model. Leveraging digital innovation and shared best practices, we work with partners to accelerate the transition toward a net-zero future.

Climate Action Framework: Driving Net-Zero Transformation Across the Full Value Chain with a Science-Based Approach

We are committed to peaking carbon emissions by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2055. Our science‑based decarbonization strategy is powered by two integrated drivers: the Green Low‑Carbon Manufacturing (GLCM) system and a digital energy‑and‑carbon management platform. Progress is tracked through four key performance indicators per unit of output, ensuring measurable and targeted emission reductions. This approach not only advances deep decarbonization in our own operations, but also extends across the value chain through our supplier enablement program—engaging over 800 partners in collaborative climate action. From certified green products to integrated zero‑carbon solutions, we are strengthening climate resilience and delivering scalable pathways for the industry’s transition.

Shaping the Future: A Global Benchmark in Green Manufacturing & Net‑Zero Value Chains

We are driving measurable progress toward a sustainable future, with clear targets to guide our journey: reducing carbon emissions intensity per unit of output by 45% from 2020 levels by 2025, establishing 20 net‑zero factories by 2030, and supporting 80% of our key suppliers in setting science‑based carbon targets. By 2055, we aim to achieve carbon neutrality across our entire value chain—transforming ambition into action through systematic innovation and industry‑leading collaboration.

Our Actions

Leading with Science-Based Targets

As a signatory to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), we have established a Green Low-Carbon Manufacturing Framework guided by four key efficiency indicators. This strategy integrates our 2030 peaking and 2055 neutrality goals into our core business planning.

Digital Platform for Precision Carbon Management

Our in-house Energy and Carbon Cloud Platform enables real-time tracking, intelligent analysis, and closed-loop control of emissions across all operations—turning data into decisive climate action.

Building Certified Sustainable Manufacturing Sites

We are systematically certifying and upgrading our production facilities, with 38 sites now certified across our key manufacturing bases—advancing energy efficiency and low-carbon processes at scale.

Partnering for Supply Chain Decarbonization

Through green procurement standards, supplier carbon mentoring, and tailored initiatives, we have engaged over 800 partners in our low-carbon pledge and built an integrated carbon data network across the value chain.

Low-Carbon Products & Verified Footprints

We pursue carbon footprint certifications across product lines, design for circularity and lightweight solutions, and embed sustainable design into every stage of R&D—preparing for a carbon-conscious global market.

Our Achievements

Significant Reduction in Carbon Intensity

Compared to our 2020 baseline, we’ve reduced carbon emissions intensity per unit of output by over 40%—surpassing our 2025 interim target ahead of schedule. This achievement represents approximately 130,000 tonnes of cumulative CO₂ emissions avoided.

Green Manufacturing Leadership in Practice

We have established a network of certified green factories spanning our communications, power transmission, and new energy businesses, with 7 newly certified facilities in 2025—reinforcing our role as an industry sustainability benchmark.

Quantifiable Supply Chain Decarbonization

By enabling 100+ key suppliers to implement carbon management systems, we have helped drive an average 8.4% reduction in their carbon intensity per unit of output, achieving tangible emissions reductions across the supply chain.

Global Green Compliance & Market Access

We have secured carbon footprint certifications for multiple export product lines, including submarine and optical fiber cables, enhancing our competitiveness in international markets with growing low-carbon regulations.
