On August 8, Industrial Fulian announced the semi-annual report of 2023, benefiting from the continuous outbreak of the global AI computing market, the company significantly improved its profitability by optimizing the product structure, with revenue of 206.78 billion yuan in the first half of the year, withholding non-net profit of 7.54 billion yuan, an increase of 18.3% to a new high. In particular, non-net profit in the second quarter surged 32.3% year on year to 4.33 billion yuan. Behind the solid performance, the company’s unremitting efforts in ESG are also worthy of attention.
Two-thirds of the key parks were rated as green factories, and the “green” strategy was implemented
In today’s ESG more and more attention, profitability is no longer the only indicator to measure the success of an enterprise, ESG is becoming an important yardstick to define a good company. For Industrial Fulian, ESG governance is a comprehensive, top-down unified standards and requirements, and constantly evolving process, in which “green development” is a main line throughout the company’s operations. According to the semi-annual report, around the “double carbon” goal, in 2023, the industrial rich Union is firmly on the road of green development and continues to make efforts.
The first is green manufacturing. During the reporting period, Industrial Fulian has obtained 12 green factory licenses, covering 2/3 of the key parks, 28 subsidiaries have passed ISO14001 environmental management system certification, 100% of the units with emission permits have obtained ISO50001 energy system certification, and 12 subsidiaries have obtained ISO50001 energy system certification. Key energy consumption units (annual comprehensive energy consumption of more than 3,000 tons of standard coal) accounted for 67%. Especially in the link of reducing operational emissions, Industrial Fuunicom has improved the energy use efficiency in the production process by replacing high-energy-consuming and low-efficiency equipment, improving processes and processes, and upgrading energy systems. During the reporting period, the company added 346 energy-saving and emission reduction projects, invested 315 million yuan in energy conservation, and reduced emissions by 58,600 tCO2e, planning to reduce emissions by 145,000 tCO2e for the whole year.
In terms of green energy, Industrial Fulian has built its own distributed photovoltaic power stations in many parks, which has built 53 megawatts, with an annual generating capacity of about 53 million KWH, and is under construction for 21 megawatts, which is expected to increase annual generating capacity by 21 million KWH. At the same time, the company also actively participates in green electricity green certificate transactions, and is expected to purchase 2.6 billion KWH of green electricity throughout the year, accounting for nearly 70% of the total electricity.
In terms of green products, the increasing contradiction between supply and demand of computing power in the era of computing power makes data center energy conservation and efficiency become a top priority. Industrial Fulian advanced layout of data center liquid cooling and immersive cooling products, the current fourth-generation AI server uses two cooling technologies, water cooling and air cooling, to provide energy-efficient data center solutions. According to the report, IFU’s immersive data center solution can achieve a significant reduction in data center PUE to 1.05, which can save energy by 40% compared to traditional air-cooled data centers.
