Letter from the ChairmanIn 2022, the issues of energy security and climate change loomed large, exacerbating the urgent need for a global energy transition. China's ecological civilization construction has entered a critical stage of taking carbon reduction as an important strategic direction, promoting the synergy of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, promoting the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, and realizing improvement of ecological environment with a focus on quality instead of quantity. In this epoch-making context, Goldwind is actively responding to the policies to address climate change and the call for carbon neutrality both in China and around the globe, supporting the transition of the energy structure with wind power, helping to build a new power system with new energy as the mainstay, adhering to the road of high-quality development, implementing the concept of harmony between human and nature, and creating a win-win situation through multi-party cooperation. While maintaining stable business development, we have contributed to sustainable development in the industry and society.Transforming wind power technologies through innovationsGoldwind's 20-plus-year development is about the Company's pursuit of technological innovations and leadership. The Company actively engages in technological innovations, builds innovative platforms, carries out collaborative innovations in major fields, and leads the trend of renewable energy technology development. In the era of grid parity, producing large-scale and intelligent wind turbines is a key way to reduce levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and improve power generation efficiency. In 2022, the Company launched many intelligent wind turbines of various platforms based on the permanent magnet direct drive (PMDD) technology, thus forming a technical route of "PMDD + medium-speed permanent magnet (MSPM)" wind turbine products. The Company can quickly respond to the complex and various needs of the market, covering a wider and more diverse range of usage scenarios. The GWH252-16 MW offshore wind turbines, developed and launched in cooperation with the China Three Gorges Corporation, have successfully overcome a series of key technical problems such as ultra-long flexible blades and the miniaturization of super-large capacity generators. The wind turbines have broken records with the world's largest single-unit capacity, the world's largest rotor diameter, and the lightest weight per megawatt. And this type of wind turbine made it to the list of Top 10 Most Important Products of National Interest in 2022 in China.To ensure the reliability of large wind turbines, GTSim, a simulation software developed by the Company, can be used to simulate and design large rotors, long flexible blades, high tower wind turbines, etc., and has been certified by TÜV NORD, an international certification organization. The Company has also invested in the construction of the world's largest test platform for 16 MW wind turbine transmission, which can verify and improve the reliability of wind turbines. Thanks to digital technology, Goldwind's intelligent wind turbines can achieve 7×24 safe operation and dynamic health management. The Company continues to develop and improve the synergy between the power sources, power grids, power loads, and power storage for better continuity, stability, predictability, and controllability of the new power system.—— Wu GangChairman of the Board of GoldwindXinjiang Goldwind Science & Technology Co.,Ltd. 2022 Sustainability Report04

Creating a win-win situation for all stakeholdersPracticing the concept of green and low-carbon high-quality developmentWind power is clean, efficient and renewable, and its amount globally is huge and inexhaustible. Therefore, wind power is one of the indispensable new energy sources for the transformation of the energy structure. With years of product life cycle assessment (LCA) experience, the Company will continue to explore the carbon reduction potentials of each production process to reduce the carbon emissions of wind power per kilowatt-hour. In 2022, the Company carried out LCA for three types of wind turbine. Their average CO2 emission per kilowatt-hour of electricity generated is 5–8 grams, which is less than 1% of that of thermal power. The Company continues to enhance the nature of wind power in low carbon emission and environmental protection, and create environmentally friendly wind turbines. The impact of wind turbines on the environment has already been taken into consideration in the product development and design stage. We have developed shadow flicker control technology, bird protection devices, and low-noise technology to prevent and reduce adverse environmental impacts.For the industry-wide problem of recycling decommissioned wind turbines, Goldwind takes advantage of its supply network in the wind power industry to establish a logistics and transportation network for wind turbine recycling. To maximize the residual value of recycled wind turbines, the Company keeps improving its ability in value evaluation, performance evaluation, and appraisal of wind turbines, as well as the ability of innovative reprocessing and manufacturing. In terms of blade recycling, on the one hand, Goldwind actively explores the alternatives to thermosetting resin composite and carries out R&D of new-type environmentally friendly blades; on the other hand, the Company innovates the recycling scheme of old blades and adopts 3D printing technology to achieve large-scale consumption of them.The business operation of Goldwind follows the approach of high-quality development, that is, environment-first, green, and low-carbon. The Company continues to carry out energy conservation and emission reduction to protect the environment. The Company continues to build green factories, improve the efficiency of resource and energy use, avoid and reduce the use of harmful chemicals and waste discharge, carry out packaging recycling, and strive to explore a green production model that is in harmony with the nature. By the end of 2022, 4 of its factories have obtained the national certification for green factories, and 4 have obtained the provincial certification.The corporate values of Goldwind urge it to actively undertake and fulfill its social responsibilities, fully consider the expectations and needs of different stakeholders, and strive to achieve win-win results with stakeholders such as shareholders, clients, employees, suppliers, and residents around wind farms.In 2022, the Company continued to conduct business with prudence and create good investment returns for shareholders. We have enhanced the quality management model of "Long-distance Running in Wind Power" to ensure the quality of wind turbines and improve satisfaction of clients. We have created a healthy corporate culture and a lively atmosphere within the organization. We provide our employees with an equal, healthy, and safe working environment and build a good growth platform so that they can have good health and achieve self-development. We continue to carry out projects such as the Fully Optimized Industrial Chain and Green Supply Chain to improve the technology and management capabilities of our suppliers. We have worked with the companies along our supply chain to reduce carbon emissions, resulting in 45.89% of the power used by main suppliers of Goldwind for producing Goldwind products being green power throughout the year. In addition, we support the development of communities where we carry out businesses, and use our business strengths and resources to engage in social welfare activities. Beijing Public Welfare Foundation has been professionally managing and supporting our public welfare work in the areas of education, poverty alleviation, and environmental protection.The concept of sustainable development has become a global consensus and will profoundly influence and guide the business development of enterprises. We are keenly aware that the core of sustainable development is to meet the current development needs of mankind while leaving some space for the long-term development of future generations. In 2023, Goldwind employees will uphold the mission of Innovating for a Brighter Tomorrow. With the power of technology and our strong belief and perseverance, we hope to make wind power a safer, more reliable, and greener new energy, thus contributing to the global energy transition and the fight against climate change. The Company will also follow the United Nations Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact to deeply integrate the concept of sustainable development into our daily operations. We will join hands with stakeholders to promote the sustainable development of global economy!05Letter from the Chairman

Waste Recycling and ReuseDuring wind turbine manufacturing, the Company generates relatively little waste, mainly comprising a small amount of hazardous waste and general solid waste. General solid waste mainly refers to waste generated during the construction of wind farms. Nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, and other air pollutants are barely produced during the Company's business and operation activities. The Company strictly abides by the Law on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Wastes and other laws and regulations, and properly handles all types of wastes in strict compliance with the principles of sorting and recycling and centralized storage and processing. For general solid waste, the Company practices centralized management and recycling or entrusts a third party for recycling and disposal.The Company actively promotes resource recycling during its production and operations. The Company has established a wind turbine recycling mechanism of wind turbines. Based on its R&D and manufacturing capability of wind turbines as well as its service branches throughout the country, it has built a network provides recycling and transportation of obsolete turbines; a closed loop in the recycling and refurbishment chain of obsolete turbines has formed, with enhanced recycling rate and refurbishment quality and with the establishment of sales channels for refurbished equipment.The Company has a development center and a service center for Remanufacturing, and has established a complete process flow including old component recycling, transportation, cleaning and dismantling, technology development, process standards setting, testing, and large-scale application. The technologies and monitoring devices are provided to the upstream and downstream enterprises of the industrial chain to improve the utilization efficiency of existing wind turbines. Through the pattern of "recycling for reuse and recycling based on components", complete wind turbines and their core components are classified into several categories before being used in different scenarios to enhance their salvage value.The Company has set up a firm with the qualification of recycling renewable resources. Through the three ways of reapplication of complete wind turbines, remanufacturing of components, and disposal of scrap, the Company has maximized its benefit from recycling resources in a lawful, environmentally-friendly way.Reapplication of complete wind turbinesMake full use of the salvage value of the wind turbines; and distribute them in high-energy-consumption industrial parks and towns, on training platforms, or in carbon-neutral parks.Disposal of scrapAccording to the principle of reduction, recycling, and no hazard for solid waste disposal, towers, cable, electrical components, structural parts, and blades have been recycled as far as possible to increase the salvage value and maximize the gains.Remanufacturing of componentsRemanufacture the core components of wind turbines, such as gearboxes and generators. These components will be recycled and used for replacement in post-service maintenance to maximize the salvage value and reduce the cost of the spare parts for customer service. For example, the Company actively promotes the dismantling and reuse of obsolete magnetic steel. Since 2015, about 1,800 tons of obsolete magnetic steel has been recycled, 640 tons of rare earth ore concentrate has been saved, and about 1,360 tons of new magnetic steel has been successfully reproduced. This has reduced the amount of rare earth needed and the exploitation quantity.Indicator Unit 2022 2021 2020Non-hazardous waste-Construction wasteton 397.89 1,231.17 826.68Emissions of Primary General Solid WasteTo recycle the pallets used in production of the nacelles, rotors and drive trains of wind turbines, the Company cooperates with the technical departments of the manufacturers to recycle pallets. The pallets used for the five major parts, namely nacelle structural member, electric teeth of drive train, bearing housing, casing and main shaft, are all recycled by the manufacturers. This improves the use efficiency of the materials used in production; the Company also cooperates with manufacturers to improve the processes of manufacturing wooden pallets such as hub and base, optimize the quality and size of pallets, reduce the use of wooden pallets and cut down material consumption.37Sustainable Industry ChainFair and Sound Working EnvironmentHarmonious Community RelationsHonest and CompliantOperationsGreen and Environment-friendly OperationsSustainable DevelopmentManagement

Exploring an innovative solution for efficient recyclingof wind turbine bladesThe efficient recycling of waste wind turbine blades is a great challenge facing the industry. As the waste blades are mostly made of thermosetting resin matrix composite materials, the corresponding recycling process is complicated and the cost is high, so there is no ideal recycling method in scale at this moment. In 2022, the Company continued to explore the solution to recycling waste blades that focuses on both feasibility and economy, and attempted to build a complete, large-scale supporting industrial chain of waste blades following the stages of "local recycling → local crushing → powder screening and mixing → 3D printing → finished products". In the carbon-neutral smart park of the Company's headquarter in Beijing, waste blades were transformed into the raw materials for 3D printing to build a flower bed. The Company has realized large-scale reuse of waste blades with the help of 3D printing. Another advantage of this technology is that the Company is able to cooperate with construction projects around wind farms to archive the consumption and reproduction of the solid blade waste in the vicinity by using mobile 3D printing robots, which reduces the cost of long-distance transportation.Waste blades were transformed into the raw materials for 3D printing to build a flower bedPackaging MaterialsTo reduce the use of packaging for large components of wind turbines, in 2022, the Company further reduced the plastic packaging weight per kilowatt of large components by applying hard packaging made of degradable plastic materials to the large components of the GWH V12 platform wind turbines and using packaging on partial components of other models. At the same time, the Company carried out the PE shrink film test on the outer packaging of the drivetrain. The shrink film has different self-bonding properties, flexibility, and scalability, which is not only low-carbon and environmentally-friendly, but also reduces costs.The Company used obsolete blades for producing recyclable packaging to replace the currently used wooden disposable packaging, so as to facilitate packaging recycling and reduce wood consumption. In 2022, the Company made the main spar, auxiliary spar, and shear webs of blades into pallets and the cover plate of packaging crates in its pilot units; the dust was collected and used for laboratory research boards; residual materials were used on crushing boards and were added to packaging plywood or glulam piers. A total of 229 blades were recycled throughout the year in pilot units, realizing solid waste recycling.38Xinjiang Goldwind Science & Technology Co.,Ltd. 2022 Sustainability Report
