GCL (Group) Holdings Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "GCL Group") is a green and low-carbon technology enterprise with various forms of new energy, clean energy and renewable energy as the main body under the guidance of carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals. Founded in 1990, GCL Group has adhered to the leadership of science and technology and digital empowerment for 34 years, focusing on silicon materials, lithium materials, carbon materials and core materials of integrated circuits, carrying out energy technology innovation, and driving the manufacturing revolution and application revolution with the material revolution. In the context of accelerating the construction of a new power system, GCL Group empowers the digital and intelligent development of energy through the synergy of fixed energy + mobile energy, and the trinity of power + energy storage + computing power, and realizes the multi-format coupling of source-grid-load-storage, charging, swapping, sales, computing, monitoring and cloud platform. Export zero-carbon scenario application solutions to the global market, provide comprehensive energy technology services, and promote the construction of a new energy system.

Up to now, GCL Group's assets have exceeded 200 billion yuan, annual operating income has reached nearly 200 billion yuan. It owns GCL Technology Holdings Limited (03800.HK). HK), GCL System Integration Technology Co., Ltd. (002506. SZ),GCL New Enery Holdings Limited (00451. HK),GCL Energy Technology Co.,Ltd.(002015. SZ) and other A-share and H-share listed companies, with more than 40,000 employees and more than 3,000 energy technology professionals. The company has ranked among the top 2 in the global top 500 new energy enterprises and the top 500 Chinese enterprises in the new energy industry for many years, and ranked 40th among the top 500 private enterprises in China, 15th among the top 100 leading enterprises in China's strategic emerging industries, and 5th among enterprises in Jiangsu Province in 2023.

GCL Group is the Chairman of the Global Green Energy Council, the Co-Chairman of the Global Solar Council, the Chairman of the Asian Photovoltaic Industry Association, and the Vice Chairman of the China Electricity Council. Every step of GCL's development in the field of new energy is closely related to industry changes:

——In the field of silicon energy, the original GCL polysilicon technology has successfully broken the foreign monopoly, led China's photovoltaic to bid farewell to the "three heads outside", and initiated and boosted the photovoltaic grid from high price to parity and low price.

——Independent research and development of FBR granular silicon technology, with the lowest carbon footprint in the world, opening a new era of photovoltaic material revolution and low-carbon application.

——In the field of perovskite, it has achieved two benchmark breakthroughs: the world's only large-area module in the industry and the industry's largest size efficiency.

——GCL has a complete photovoltaic integrated industrial chain and lithium energy storage industry chain from materials, manufacturing to application, and has mastered a series of disruptive hard-core technologies such as CCZ, cathode and anode materials, and supramolecular deep eutectic electrolytes. It is the world's largest producer of UCC high-purity silane gas.

——Undertake the "National Major Science and Technology 02 Project" and the "National Strong Foundation Project", successfully overcome the neck technology of electronic-grade polysilicon, and is the first electronic-grade polysilicon manufacturer in China to systematically master the preparation technology of high-purity electronic-grade polysilicon for integrated circuits, and has the largest scale and the largest market share. In the field of 12-inch large silicon wafers and large wafers, GCL has the technical level of import substitution and is one of the few "Chinese chip" raw material manufacturers.

——GCL is the earliest private power enterprise established in China, leading the industry in the proportion of clean energy installed capacity, leading the industry in innovative business fields such as virtual power plants, energy demand-side management, third-party power sales, incremental distribution networks, and microgrids, and taking the lead in entering the field of energy computing power in China, with energy + AI synergy at the same time.

——Actively participating in the Belt and Road energy cooperation and lighting up the world with green electricity. Relying on its abundant overseas natural gas resources in Ethiopia and domestic LNG receiving and operation channels, the integrated development of gas, hydrogen, ammonia and electricity will promote the autonomy of Extra-large natural gas source and natural gas effective supply and reception application areas.

GCL Group adheres to the guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping's new energy security strategy of "Four Revolutions and One Cooperation", listens to and follows the Communist Party of China, leads green development with red genes, and practices Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought. GCL Group has 16 party committees, 4 general party branches, 125 party branches, and more than 3,500 party members. The party committee and its affiliated party organizations have repeatedly won the titles of national power system party building brand influence enterprise, provincial "advanced grass-roots party organization", and provincial "two new" organization party building demonstration sites.

At present, GCL Group is adhering to the concept of "bringing green energy into life", focusing on the goal positioning of "GCL Technology, Digital GCL, and Green GCL", taking the market as the guide, taking the customer as the center, and continuing to strive with the fighting spirit, cultivating new quality productivity, and enabling high-quality development. Strive to move towards the goal of "becoming a respected global new and clean energy enterprise", and realize the GCL dream of "GCL is strong, GCL employees are rich, and GCL is praised by the society".
