Silver Grant released its 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance Report, detailing progress on its strategic pivot toward new energy, efficiency gains in its petrochemical joint venture and tighter governance across operations in Mainland China and Hong Kong. The disclosure covers the period from 1 January to 31 December 2025 and fully complies with Hong Kong Exchange ESG Code Appendix C2 “Mandatory Disclosure” requirements.
New-Energy Expansion • Eight commercial & industrial rooftop photovoltaic (PV) projects were completed during the year, adding approximately 10.60 MW of installed capacity and generating more than 12 million kWh annually. • Two additional projects (combined 1.30 MW) have signed Energy Management Contract agreements and one of them could scale up to 6 MW in phased construction. • The Group is advancing an integrated “PV + storage + EV charging” model and aims to secure stable cash flows through self-owned distributed power stations, while exploring building-integrated PV, smart charging and energy-storage opportunities.
Traditional Energy Efficiency • Joint-venture Zhong Hai You Qi recorded a 2025 refining energy-efficiency index of 8.46 kgoe/t, improving 0.71% year-on-year. • CO₂ emissions fell marginally to 1.5144 million tonnes, down 0.03% from 2024, supported by equipment upgrades and VOCs abatement projects across four tank areas. • The refinery maintained full compliance with Chinese and local environmental regulations and renewed multiple quality and green certifications, including “Jiangsu Green Factory”.
Property Leasing Operations • Beijing’s LEED Platinum-certified East Gate Plaza maintained full occupancy and a 99.47% tenant satisfaction rate. Service enhancements included shuttle buses, eco-friendly room options and strengthened flood-season safeguards.
Corporate Governance & Compliance • Independent non-executive directors accounted for 33% of the nine-member Board; female representation stood at 11%. • No breaches of anti-corruption, data-privacy, labour or safety regulations were recorded. All directors and staff completed anti-corruption training, and no corruption cases were reported.
Human Capital • Headcount totalled 55 employees; turnover rate was 5.5%. • Nine training sessions reached 40% of staff, averaging 4.9 training hours per employee. • The Group reports zero work-related fatalities and no lost-time injuries over the past three years.
Environmental Footprint • Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse-gas emissions were 95.96 tonnes CO₂-equivalent; total emissions including Scope 3 reached 318.80 tonnes. • Total energy use declined 4% year-on-year to 240 MWh, while water consumption at the Beijing office was 350 m³. • Office paper usage was 0.48 tonnes; no hazardous waste was generated.
Forward Targets • Corporate “dual-carbon” goal: peak emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. • Operational targets: cut per-employee energy and water intensity by 3% by 2030 and maintain zero hazardous-waste generation.
Silver Grant states that governance bodies will continue to integrate climate considerations into risk management and capital allocation, with annual reviews of ESG performance to support its transition toward low-carbon growth.
