DMEGC Solar Achieves SSI ESG Silver Certifications, Leading Sustainability in Industry
DMEGC Solar Achieves Two SSI ESG Silver Certifications
On October 15, 2023, DMEGC Solar made a significant stride in sustainable development by securing two SSI ESG Silver certifications for its module production bases located in Sihong and Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province. This achievement reflects DMEGC Solar's dedication to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards and marks its leadership in compliance with sustainability practices in the photovoltaic industry.
The SSI (Solar Sustainability Initiative) program aims to ensure a more responsible and transparent solar value chain. Launched by Solar Power Europe in collaboration with Solar Energy UK, this initiative published its inaugural set of ESG standards in October 2023, systematically evaluating manufacturers' sustainable performance across various dimensions such as governance, environmental protection, and labor rights.
This recognition is crucial as the latest SSI policy mandates that all photovoltaic modules exported by its members to major European markets must adhere strictly to ESG management and traceability requirements over the next three years. Consequently, SSI certification is evolving into an essential “passport” for photovoltaic companies aiming to access the European market, where ESG capabilities and traceability are becoming critical factors in international competition.
DMEGC Solar's successful certification for its Sihong and Lianyungang production bases is a testament to its commitment, as 100% of its N-type modules now meet SSI standards. This puts DMEGC in a strong position to maintain its competitiveness in exporting to the European market.
DMEGC Solar integrates sustainability into its core strategy, focusing on optimizing its corporate governance structure and management system, which promotes a synergistic development of economic, environmental, and social value. The company's ESG performance has been acknowledged repeatedly by prestigious institutions, receiving a MSCI ESG rating of BBB, a CDP Water Security score of A-, a Climate Change score of B, and a Silver certification from Ecovadis, consistently leading the industry in ESG standards.
The simultaneous acquisition of the two SSI ESG Silver certifications will not only enhance DMEGC's credibility and competitiveness on the international stage but also inspire the company to deepen its ESG system development, contributing to a more transparent, responsible, and sustainable future for the global photovoltaic industry. This advancement symbolizes DMEGC Solar's unwavering commitment to eco-friendly practices while boosting investor and customer confidence in its products and services.
Continuous improvement in governance and sustainability practices will remain pivotal in DMEGC's strategy, thereby reinforcing its market position and reputation as an industry leader dedicated to environmentally conscious energy production. Through such efforts, DMEGC intends to set a benchmark in the solar energy sector, showcasing how commitment to sustainability can lead to both innovative business strategies and a healthier planet.
With these accolades, DMEGC Solar is poised not only to thrive in the competitive environment of solar energy but also to lead by example, promoting a greener future for generations to come.
