The Company's wastewater mainly consists of domestic sewage. Production wastewater generated by the Company includes surfacetreatment process wastewater, ground cleaning wastewater, spray wastewater, boiler circulating water, and pure water preparationsystem drainage. Both production wastewater and domestic sewage are treated at the on-site sewage treatment plant before beingdischarged into the centralized treatment facility at the Sewage Treatment Plant in Changzhou City. Rainwater collected through theon-site stormwater drainage network is also directed into the municipal sewage network and treated at the Sewage Treatment Plantin Changzhou City.The Company owns a self-built sewage treatment plant, which employs the treatment process of "primary sedimentation & contactoxidation & secondary sedimentation." The concentration of pollutants in the Company's wastewater is relatively low, and after treat-ment at the sewage plant, it consistently meets the standards for handover to the Sewage Treatment Plant in Changzhou City. Duringthe reporting period, the company discharged a total of 7,980 tons of wastewater.
Wastewater Management
The solid waste generated in the Company's production process mainly includes waste packaging materials, waste edge materials,dust collected from dust removal, welding slag, waste cutting ?uid, waste tank sludge, waste ?lter cotton, waste cleaning cloths,gloves, mops, waste activated carbon, waste packaging barrels, waste water treatment sludge, and domestic garbage.The waste packaging materials, waste edge materials, and dust collected from dust removal are outsourced for comprehensive utili-zation after collection. The waste cutting ?uid, waste tank sludge, waste ?lter cotton, waste cleaning cloths, gloves, mops, waste acti-vated carbon, waste packaging barrels, and waste water treatment sludge are transported and disposed of by quali?ed units. Thedomestic garbage generated is uniformly cleared by the sanitation department.The Company has established the Hazardous Waste Management System to standardize the management of hazardous waste dispos-al. An independent hazardous waste warehouse has been set up, and professional hazardous waste managers are appointed to over-see its operations. After hazardous waste is generated, it is classi?ed, placed on pallets, weighed, and then stored in the hazardouswaste warehouse with proper documentation. During transportation, all hazardous waste must be sealed and packaged to preventchemical spills. Additionally, hazardous waste labels are a?xed to each pallet to ensure proper identi?cation and classi?cation, thusensuring safe handling and transportation. Through these measures, the potential harm of hazardous waste to human health and theenvironment is minimized. During the reporting period, the total amount of hazardous waste generated by the company was 77.16tons, all of which were disposed of in compliance with regulations.

Technological Innovation and Product Development
The Company stipulates and commits to prioritizing consumer health and safety in the process of product innovation and researchand development. Secondary considerations include standards such as ?re prevention, environmental protection, and noise reduc-tion.For consumer health and safety, we ensure that emergency doors do not open unexpectedly and that vehicles operate safely. Weadopt redundant designs for door locks, and structural components have a safety factor of 1.5 times or higher.In terms of ?re prevention, we conduct ?ame retardant tests according to various standards such as TBT3237, TBT3138, andEN45545-2 for di?erent materials to meet the ?re performance requirements of our products. Additionally, to enhance ?re resistance,we prioritize the use of materials with excellent ?re performance during product development. For example, we use aluminum alloy orstainless steel for metal parts and ?ame-retardant ?re-resistant materials for non-metal parts, submitting samples to third-party labo-ratories for testing before use.In the area of environmental protection, we strictly adhere to standards such as TB/T 3139-2021 for non-metallic materials in locomo-tives and indoor air pollutant limits, as well as EU Reach and RoHS standards. We prioritize the use of lightweight metal parts and envi-ronmentally friendly materials for non-metal parts, submitting samples to third-party laboratories for testing before use.For noise control, we incorporate materials with good sound insulation properties or sound-absorbing materials into the basic struc-ture for noise reduction.

Collaborate with Partners to AchieveMutual SuccessEvergreen Technology attaches great importance to supply chain management, adhering consistently to the procurement principlesof "fairness, impartiality, and transparency." We are committed to building a sustainable supply chain network that is mutually bene?-cial, e?cient, healthy, and dynamically managed.

Sustainable Supply Chain
Before a new supplier is included in the Quali?ed Supplier List, the Company requires them to possess relevant licensing quali?ca-tions. The Procurement Department organizes an investigation and audit of their supply capabilities, product quality, managementlevel, service capabilities, equipment and facilities, and, if necessary, conducts an on-site audit. Only after approval can they be includ-ed in the Quali?ed Supplier List. The Company selects suppliers from this list for procurement, and before bulk supplies are provided,the Quality Assurance Department approves their release through sample trials or ?rst-article inspection.

We conduct supplier audit and evaluation strictly in accordance with the provisions of the Supplier Evaluation Control Procedure. Wecategorize and manage suppliers based on established systems, assigning quantitative values to suppliers based on four dimensions:
supplier classi?cation, order volume, possession of relevant quali?cations, and annual evaluation results. Suppliers scoring 50 pointsor above are classi?ed as Level I suppliers, those scoring between 30 and 50 points are Level II suppliers, and those scoring below 30points are Level III suppliers. Level I and Level II suppliers must undergo performance appraisals and written evaluations for productquali?cation rates and timely delivery rates before bulk supply. On-site audits may be conducted if necessary, along with ?rst-articleinspection or sample trials. Only suppliers who pass the evaluation are eligible for supply. Level III suppliers are procured based onplans or orders, with written evaluations of their production or business quali?cations, and incoming inspection. Only suppliers whopass the evaluation are eligible for supply.We annually organize personnel to conduct annual evaluations of suppliers, including ESG audits. The audit and evaluation itemsinclude but are not limited to: company management, process technology, employee training, environmental and occupationalhealth and safety awareness, etc. Suppliers who are found to be inadequate or unquali?ed during the evaluation will be required torectify the issues within a speci?ed time limit.

During the reporting period, the Company developed the 2023 Supplier Audit Plan and completed theaudit plans for 23 suppliers, urging suppliers to make corrections and continuous improvements.
When the procured materials or services fail to meet the requirements, the Supply Chain Center will organize personnel from relevantdepartments to analyze the reasons for non-conformance. At the same time, the supplier is required to investigate the causes leadingto the unquali?ed materials or services and submit corrective and preventive measures.
