Significant Headway Towards Sustainability Driven by Tech Innovation

Over the past year, Shanghai Electric has ramped up investment to develop new technology and products for driving decarbonization and global climate protection. In 2023, the Company's spending on research and development (R&D) hit 5.381 billion RMB, the highest in the past five years. Shanghai Electric's latest venture in heterojunction (HJT) technology and N-type bifacial modules has bolstered its solar product portfolio, with the percentage of R&B investment increasing to 33.5%. The launch of a range of new products in 2023, which includes the 16MW offshore wind turbine powered by the Poseidon platform, the 500kW containerized vanadium liquid flow energy storage system, and the 2000Nm3/H Alkaline electrolyzer, has further boosted Shanghai Electric's technological prowess. The R&B endeavors enabled the Company to acquire 2,931 patents.

"2023 marked a year of innovation for Shanghai Electric. We believe that technology is the primary productive force that drives our business forward, so we are strengthening our position in the green energy industry, focusing on the development of energy equipment, industrial equipment, and integrated services to promote industrial transformation and upgrading," said Liu Ping, President of Shanghai Electric.

In 2023, Shanghai Electric leveraged its strategic advantages and industry expertise to provide green solutions for more energy and industrial companies, contributing to low-carbon green transformation and development. Shanghai Electric participated in the construction of the world's first fourth-generation nuclear power station and an ultra-supercritical double reheat coal-fired generator unit that refreshes the world's record for its low coal consumption. In addition, Shanghai Electric's landmark project, the world's first floating wind-fishery integration project, was completed in the year, with its solutions empowering green transformation for China, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Serbia, Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Uzbekistan, and more.
