For details, please refer to the index table in the appendix.5. The Company’s Achievements, Climate Change Response and Strategies on SustainabilityKey achievements in 2023– Total carbon dioxide equivalent emissions decreased from approximately 75,211 kg for the year ended 31 December 2022 to approximately 70,255 kg for the year ended 31 December 2023– Energy consumpt ion in tens i t y dec reased f rom 0.64 kWh/HK$’000 Revenue for the year ended 31 December 2022 to approximately 0.60 kWh/HK$’000 for the year ended 31 December 2023– Wate r consumpt ion i n tens i t y dec rea sed f rom approximately 0.0004 cubic meters/HK$’000 Revenue for the year ended 31 December 2022 to approximately 0.0003 cubic meters/HK$’000 Revenue for the year ended 31 December 202318 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023Climate Change ResponseThe Group has long realised the urgency of climate change and have worked to help address the challenge. Meanwhile, the Group also reckons the importance of providing transparency on its approach to managing climate-related issues across its operations.The Stock Exchange has published a consultation paper (“Consultation Paper”) on Enhancement of Climate Related Disclosures Under the Environmental, Social and Governance Framework on 14 April 2023.The Hong Kong government has set a carbon neutrality target by 2050. The government has further launched the Climate Action Plan, which outlines relevant initiatives to reduce carbon emissions for a smooth transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy. For the financial sector, the Steering Group has announced a goal to implement mandatory climate-related disclosures aligned with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (the “TCFD”) by 2025.In Hong Kong, there was a fourfold increase in the amount to green and sustainable debt and sustainability-linked loans issued in 2023 compared to those of 2022. Our Company understand that more and more investors are engaged in green investments, resulting in an increasing demand for quality sustainability and resilient businesses go hand in hand. Having ESG and net-zero principles integrated into business strategy only makes a company more agile and better prepared to deal with risks and uncertainties.The Consultation Paper also mentions the International Sustainability Standards Board (the “ISSB”) which is a standard-setting body established in 2021–2022 under the International Financial Reporting Standards (the “IFRS”) Foundation, whose mandate is the creation and development of sustainability-related financial reporting standards to meet investors’ needs for sustainability reporting, published the exposure drafts of the ISSBClimate Standard and ISSBGeneral Standard in March 2022 to seek market feedback on the proposed global baseline of sustainability-related disclosure standards. The last ISSB deliberation meeting was held in April 2023, and the ISSB has been working towards issuing the final standards by the end of the second quarter of 2023.氣候變化應對本集團一直明白氣候變化的緊迫性，並致力於應對此挑戰。

同時，本集團意識到透明地披露其營運中管理氣候相關事宜的方法是十分重要的。

聯交所於二零二三年四月十四日已公佈一份就關於優化環境，社會及管治框架下的氣候相關資訊披露之諮詢文件（「諮詢文件」）。

香港政府定下了在二零二五年前實現碳中和的目標，並進一步推出氣候行動計劃，當中概述若干減碳相關舉措，推動平穩過渡至能應對氣候變化的低碳經濟模式。

就金融業而言，督導小組已宣佈於二零二五年或之前實施符合氣候相關財務披露工作組（「TCFD」）的強制氣候相關信息披露的目標。

香港的綠色及可持續債券以及可持續發展掛鈎貸款在二零二三年的發行量是二零二二年的四倍。

本公司明白到愈來愈多投資者參與綠色投資，因此提升了對公司披露優質可持續及氣候相關信息的需求。

另一方面，可持續發展與業務抵禦力息息相關。

在業務策略中加入環境、社會及管治和淨零排放原則，有助公司更靈活及作好準備應對風險及不確定因素。

諮詢文件也提及基於投資者對公司就氣候及其他環境、社會及管治事宜作出優質、透明、一致及可比匯報有愈來愈高的需求，國際可持續準則理事會為二零二一至二零二二年在國際財務報告準則（「IFRS」）基金會下成立的一個準則制定機構，其任務是建立和發展與可持續性有關的財務報告準則，以滿足投資者對可持續性報告的需求（「ISSB」）於二零二二年三月刊發ISSB氣候準則及ISSB一般準則的徵求意見稿，就建議的全球可持續相關信息披露準則的基準徵詢市場意見。

30 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023Risk managementTo better understand the climate-related risks faced by the Group’s companies and make corresponding countermeasures against climate risks in advance, we conduct scenario analysis and in-depth climate risk assessments for the project companies in this financial year. The assessment focused on analysing the transition and physical climate risks.Physical climate risks include strong winds and cyclones, fluvial floods, extreme temperature, global warming and extreme precipitation. We have taken reference to the representative concentration pathway (“RCPs”) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”), adopted the appropriate scenario assumptions of RCP2.6 and RCP8.5, i.e. the scenarios of warming of below 1.5°C and 4°C above preindustrial level, and considered the short (0–5 years), medium (5–10 years), and long (over 10 years) term impact of climate risk, and conducted a rigorous analysis of its severity, likelihood and vulnerability. After assessing the risk information, we assessed the relevant financial impact and implemented corresponding mitigation plans to follow the HKEX’s Guidance on Climate Disclosures . Please refer to Section 6.1.4 for Hong Kong office company, Section 7.1.4 for Karamay Project company and Section 8.1.4 for Kashi Project company.The Group will continue to analyze the impact of climate risks in depth and assess the resulting financial impact from multiple perspectives. Looking ahead, we will gradually expand the scope of climate risk assessment, and conduct more frequent risk assessments on project companies and business locations to ensure that the Group is capable of coping with the challenges brought by climate change.風險管理為更加深入了解本集團所面臨的氣候相關風險，提前為氣候風險制定相應的策略及舉措，我們進行情境分析及深入的氣候風險評估。

該次評估重點分析轉型及實體氣候風險。

實體氣候風險包括強風及氣旋、河流洪水、極端溫度、氣候暖化及極端降水。

我們參考了政府間氣候變化專門委員會（「IPCC」）的代表性濃度路徑（「RCPs」），採取了情境假設當中的RCP 2.6及RCP8.5，即升溫1.5℃以下及4℃情境，並考慮氣候風險的短期（0–5年）、中期（5–10年）、長期（10年以上）影響，對嚴重性、可能性和脆弱性進行分析。

在完成風險評估後，進一步開展相關的財務影響分析，參照聯交所《氣候信息披露指引》，研究制定了對應的緩解方案。

請參閱第6.1.4節香港辦公室公司部分，第7.1.4節喀拉瑪伊項目公司部分以及第8.1.4節喀什項目公司部分。

本集團將會繼續深入分析氣候風險的影響及以多角度評估其導致的財務影響。

展望未來，我們會逐漸擴大氣候風險評估的範圍，對各項目公司及業務所在地更頻繁的進行風險評估，確保本集團具備能力應對氣候變化所帶來的挑戰。

31ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023Indicators and TargetsTo actively respond to the severe challenge of climate change, the Group published the “China Gas Carbon Neutrality Action Report” in 2022 as one of its responses focusing on GHG emission reduction. The report covers seven major actions of green energy, energy conservation and innovation, low-carbon logistics, smart operation, methane emission control, net zero path and green ecosystem, and three major commitments:– Reducing carbon emission intensity by 50% by 2030 compared with the 2021 level– Achieving carbon peak by 2030– Achieving carbon neutrality in its own operation by 2050We regularly review the Group’s carbon emissions to monitor the progress and explore different carbon reduction opportunities, exploring and formulating carbon reduction initiatives towards carbon neutrality.Our Company will follow up the new sustainability-related disclosure standards from the ISSB and new requirements on Climate Change from the Stock Exchange. Please refer to relevant sections for climate change in this ESGReport.Management approachThe Board of the Company has responsibility for overall risk oversight. Apart from that, our Company considers to formalise an advisory panel with certain professionals of its management measures that can help the Group to become resilient to climate change.In strengthening its attention of climate policy trends and information, the Group is dedicated to learning from its surrounding enterprises such as China National Petroleum Corporation (“CNPC”) who is our close business partner and peers and implementing its own-resource finance responses.指標及目標為積極應對氣候變化這嚴峻挑戰，本集團積極制定應對策略，以減少溫室氣體排放為切入點，在二零二二年制定並發佈了《中國燃氣碳中和行動報告》，明確了本集團在綠色能源、節能創新、低碳物流、智慧運營、甲烷控排、淨零路徑及綠色生態圈的七大方向的減碳行動，並提出三大承諾：－二零三零年碳排放強度較二零二一年降低50%－二零三零年實現碳達峰－二零五零年實現自身運營碳中和我們定期審查集團的碳排放量以監測進展情況，並研究發掘潛在的減碳機遇，研究制定科學減碳路徑，確保本集團逐步邁向碳中和的目標。

本公司將密切關注ISSB的任何新的可持續發展相關披露標準及╱或聯交所的任何新的氣候變化要求（如有）的進展。

請參閱環境、社會及管治報告有關氣候變化章節。

管理方法本公司董事會負責全面的風險監督。

此外，本公司亦會考慮成立由若干相關專業人士組成的顧問小組，以確保其任何管理措施的優化都能幫助本集團提高對氣候變化的適應能力。

在加強對氣候政策趨勢和資訊的關注時，本集團致力於向其周邊企業例如我們的密切商業夥伴－中國石油天然氣集團有限公司（「中國石油集團」）和同行學習，並實施其自身的資源融資應對措施。

32 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023轉型風險－新的環境法規和更嚴格的排放要求有機會出台；－新興技術的發展可能會因為意想不到的性能問題而增加營運成本；及－市場對清潔能源方面的不確定訊號可能會對本集團融資產生負面影響。

潛在影響為應對更嚴格監管帶來的連鎖反應，營運成本預計將會上升。

投資的新技術存在經濟或技術上不可行或無法按預期工作的風險，這些領域的支出可能無法獲得預期的財務回報。

由於全球天然氣供應不穩定，市場有可能通過加大對可再生能源的投資來消除對天然氣的依賴。

如果市場發展遇到重大障礙，本集團將面臨與天然氣業務相關的風險。

機遇在未來的年代，能源系統預計將發生巨大變化，以滿足當地、國家和全球的氣候目標。

發電等行業的脫碳意味著對天然氣在內的潔淨燃料有更高需求。

由於本集團認為潛在影響不重大或無需即時關注，本集團現正逐漸就已識別的潛在影響制定管理措施，以確保妥善處理上述的潛在影響。

未來，為更好地確定集團的風險，並測試其氣候應變戰略，本集團計劃根據集團的準備情況及董事會對就必要性的考慮，按照TCFD的建議進行情景分析。

Transition Risk– New environmental regulations and more aggressive emission requirements may come into place;– Development of the emerging technologies may increase the operating cost due to unexpected performance; and– Uncertain market signals towards clean energy may negatively impact the Group’s access to capital.Potential ImpactOperating cost is expected to rise in response to the rippled effect brought by more straightened regulations.While the new technologies invested has the risks of not being economically or technically feasible or do not work as expected, the expenses in these areas may not receive financial return as expected.With unstable global natural gas supply, there are chances that the market may eliminate the reliance on natural gas by investing more on renewable electricity. The Group will be exposed to risks related its natural gas business if there are significant hurdles in the market development.OpportunityOver the new few decades, energy systems are expected to change dramatically to meet local, national and global climate goals. Decarbonisation of sectors such as power generation means higher demand of clean fuels including natural gas.Since the Group considered the potential impacts not significant or requiring immediate concern, the Group is now taking time to develop management measures regarding the potential impacts identified so as to ensure that the impacts can be properly addressed.In the future, scenario analysis is planned to be undertaken as suggested by the Recommendations of the TCFD based on the Group’s readiness and the Board’s consideration of necessity in order to better determine the Group’s risks exposure and test its climate resilience strategies.33ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023Potential ImpactIncreased stakeholder environmental concerns and shifts in market preferences as guided by the “coal-to-gas” project of the government may boost the Group’s business growth with natural gas pipeline installation as its major business.Strategies for 2024 and BeyondAs the Group invests in natural gas exploration with its facilities development, the Group highly prioritise in the Group’s operation and focus on the following areas:– Continue with the existing stable operational model;– Allocate resources to upgrade the exploration facilities and maximise production capacity with advanced technology; and– Pursue advancement in environmental management, occupational health and safety management and corporate governance, on the basis of meeting profit targets.Over the past few years, the Group has been aligning with the PRC’s direction to develop sustainability. The PRC’s plan on focusing on environmental management and cleaner energy has provided a solid guide and foundation for the Group to keep raising addressing sustainability issues in relation to its operations. It has ever been inspired and motivated the Group to set ambitious goals and take steps in undertaking its contribution to society and environment.The key strategies of the Group in the upcoming years are as follows:(1) On Environmental side, the Group will explore more energy efficiency improvement opportunities, reduce business travelling and replace the electric traffic equipments to petrol or diesel driven traffic equipments to reduce the emission. The Group will formulate the Climate Change Response policies and establish a management team focus on the execution of the climate change response measures to make good preparation. The Group will also increase steam recovery and water reuse rate and adopt waste heat recovery in more operations to recover the resources;潛在影響持份者對環境的關注增加，以及在政府「煤改氣」項目引導下市場偏好的轉變，可能會推動本集團以天然氣管道安裝為主營業務的業務增長。

二零二四年及未來之策略由於本集團以其設施開發投資於天然氣勘探，本集團高度重視本集團營運，並專注以下領域：－繼續現有穩定的營運模式；－分配資源以升級勘探設施並利用先進技術擴大產能；及－在實現溢利目標的基礎上，推進環境管理、職業健康安全管理及企業治理。

過去數年來，本集團一直配合中國發展可持續發展的方向。

中國以環境管理及更清潔能源作為重點的規劃為本集團持續提升與其營運相關的可持續發展事宜提供堅實指引及基礎，且更啟迪及推動本集團制定宏大目標，並採取舉措為社會及環境作出貢獻。

本集團於未來數年的主要策略如下：(1)環保方面，本集團將探索更多能效提升機會，減少商務差旅，並以電動交通設備取代汽油或柴油驅動交通設備，以減少排放。

本集團將建立氣候變化應對政策措施及為作出更好準備以成立管理隊伍專責氣候變對執行。

本集團亦將提高蒸汽回收率及水再利用率，並在更多業務中採用餘熱回收，以回收資源；34 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023(2)社會方面，本集團將識別潛在職業安全風險，並提供在職培訓。

本集團亦將利用智能控制行政管理系統，以減少冗餘工作及簡化管理流程，並提供職業發展培訓及改善管理。

本集團希冀該等措施為僱員帶來歸屬感及工作滿足感；及(3)管治方面，本集團將於各項合約中納入更全面反貪污條款及供應鏈管理。

本集團亦將成立環境、社會及管治人才小組，以制定、執行及完善明確且一致的政策。

本公司預期，達致該等策略將令其營運對環境、社會及僱員健康可能帶來的任何不利或意外影響減至最低，從而確保為其股東帶來穩健及長期回報。

6.中國能源開發控股有限公司6.1環境中能開發的主要業務為投資控股。

中能開發的排放物主要來自其位於香港的辦公室及私家車。

由於在香港工作的僱員數量有限，辦公室的排放量相對較少，其主要排放物來自空調及辦公室用電。

於匯報期內中能開發已遵守對本集團有重大影響的有關廢氣及溫室氣體排放、向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生等的相關法例及法規。

(2) On Social s ide, the Group wil l identify potential occupational safety risks and provide on-the-job training. The Group will also utilise intelligent control administrative systems to reduce redundant work and streamline management process and provide training for career development and improve management. The Group hopes these will bring our employees sense of belonging and work satisfaction; and(3) On Governance side, the Group will include more comprehensive anti-corruption terms and supply chain management in various contracts. The Group will also establish the ESG talents group to set up, execute and improve clear and consistent policies.The Company expects achievement of such strategies will minimise any unfavourable or unexpected impacts that might be brought about by its operations to the environment, society and well-being of its employees, to ensure healthy and long- term returns to its shareholders.6. China Energy Development Holdings Limited6.1 EnvironmentalThe principal activity of CEDHL is investment holding.The major sources of emissions of CEDHL were from its office and private cars in Hong Kong.Due to limited number of employees in Hong Kong, the amount of emission was relatively limited. The major sources of emissions were from air conditioning and electricity used in the office.In the Reporting Period, CEDHL has complied with relevant laws and regulations relating to air and greenhouse gas emissions, discharges into water and land, and generation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, that have a significant impact on the Group.35ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告20236.1.1 Air and Greenhouse Gas EmissionsIn the Reporting Period of CEDHL, the source of direct air and greenhouse gas emissions from gaseous fuel consumption was mainly from private cars.The air emissions of the private cars included nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulphur oxides (SOX) and respiratory suspended particles (RSP), while the greenhouse gas emissions of the private cars included carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).Other major direct greenhouse gas emissions were hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and perfluorocarbons (PFC), which were resulted from the use of air conditioning equipment in the office. The central air conditioning was provided by the property management company, therefore such emission data was not available for collection.Their major indirect greenhouse gas emission was carbon dioxide (CO2) resulted from the generation of electricity which was used in the office.Other minor and indirect greenhouse gas emissions sources were: carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from disposal of office solid waste at landfills; carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from the electricity used for processing fresh water and sewage by Water Supplies Department; and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from business air travel by employees.6.1.1廢氣及溫室氣體排放中能開發於匯報期內直接透過氣體燃料消耗排放廢氣及溫室氣體的來源主要為私家車。

私家車的廢氣排放包括氮氧化物(NOX)、硫氧化物(SOX)及懸浮顆粒(RSP)，而私家車的溫室氣體排放包括二氧化碳(CO2)、甲烷(CH4)及氧化亞氮(N2O)。

其他主要直接溫室氣體排放為使用辦公室之空調時釋放的氫氟碳化物(HFC)及全氟化碳(PFC)。

由於中央空調由物業管理公司提供，所以未能收集有關排放數據。

其主要間接溫室氣體排放來源為辦公室用電，其電力生產過程中產生的二氧化碳(CO2)。

其他次要的間接溫室氣體排放來源為：棄置到堆填區的辦公室的固體廢物所產生的二氧化碳(CO2)排放；水務署處理辦公室用水及污水而消耗的電力之二氧化碳(CO2)排放；及僱員乘坐飛機出外公幹時之二氧化碳(CO2)排放。

36 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告20236.1.2 Discharge into Water and Land, and Generation of Hazardous and non- Hazardous WasteIn the Reporting Period for CEDHL, the major source of discharge into water was from use of water in the office and the amount of discharge was relatively limited. The processing of fresh water, sewage and solid waste were handled by the property management company or relevant local government departments, therefore such emission data was not available for collection.Due to their business natures, there was no generation of hazardous waste.The major source of non-hazardous waste was from the solid waste of the office and the amount of discharge was relatively limited.6.1.3 Policies and Use of ResourcesAs enterprises with social responsibility, CEDHL encourages their employees to use their best endeavours to reduce waste and emissions, with a view to contributing to the community and the environment. CEDHL believes in ‘many a little makes a mickle’, despite the fact that the amount of emission is very limited due to their business natures and relatively passive position in reducing waste and emissions. Regarding emission policies, all emissions are handled by relevant government agencies and property management companies in ways that are in accordance with local laws and regulations. In addition, CEDHL considers the efficient use of resources, such as electricity and water, is of equal importance to emission policies. Efficient use of resources not only can reduce waste and emissions from the sources, but also reduce operating expenses, which is mutually beneficial to the Group and the environment.6.1.2向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生中能開發於匯報期內主要向水的排放為辦公室生活污水，排放量相對較少。

辦公室食水、污水及固廢均由物業管理公司或相關政府部門處理，所以未能收集有關排放數據。

因為業務性質關係，並沒有有害廢棄物產生。

其主要無害廢棄物產生來源為辦公室的固體廢物，排放量相對較少。

6.1.3政策及資源使用作為具社會責任的企業，中能開發鼓勵僱員盡量減排減廢，為社會和環境付出一分力。

雖然因業務關係直接排放量相當有限，而於減排減廢方面處於相對被動的位置，但中能開發相信積少能成多。

就處理排放物政策方面，排放物皆由相關政府部門及物業管理公司根據本地法例和法規處理。

除此之外，中能開發認為有效使用資源也同樣重要，不但可以從源頭減排減廢，更可以減低營運成本，達至雙贏局面。

37ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023有關減排減廢和有效使用資源的措施包括：鼓勵僱員公幹時盡量乘搭公共交通工具；鼓勵僱員減少非必要海外公幹，從而減少間接碳排放；更換及購買設備時考慮選擇較節能產品，例如以發光極體燈取代傳統燈泡；無需使用時，將電器用品關掉或調節到休眠狀態，以減低用電量；使用雙面打印，並循環使用紙張及盡可能以電子方法取代用紙；重用辦公室文具用品（例如信封、檔案夾等）；離開辦公室前，關掉所有非必要照明、空調及器材；鼓勵僱員回收紙、膠樽和鋁罐；及鼓勵僱員通過環境保護署的回收計劃，回收設備如電腦和通訊產品等。

中能開發已識別環保風險並採取上述段落所述的預防措施。

由於中能開發主要於香港作為辦公室形式運作，中能開發預計不存在任何影響本集團財務及經營的重大風險。

Policies relating to reduction of waste and emissions, and efficient use of resources include: encourage employees to use their best endeavours to take public transport during business trip; encourage employees to reduce unnecessary overseas business trip, thus reducing indirect carbon emissions; consider energy efficient products when procuring and replacing equipment, e.g. replacing incandescent lighting with LED lighting; turn off electrical appliances or switch them to standby mode when they are not in use, thus reducing the amount of electricity used; use duplex printing, recycle papers and use electronic means to reduce paper usage; reuse office stationaries (e.g. envelopes and folders); tu rn of f a l l unnecessary l ight ing , a i r conditioning and electrical appliances before leaving the office; encourage employees to recycle paper, plastic bottle and aluminium can; and encourage employees to recycle equipment such as computers and communication devices through the recycling programme of Environmental Protection Department.CEDHL has identified the risks of environmental protection and taken the preventive measures as described in the above paragraphs. As CEDHL mainly operates as an office in Hong Kong, CEDHL does not forsee any significant risk with its impact to the Group’s financial and operation.38 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告20236.1.4 Climate Change ResponseCEDHL mainly maintains Hong Kong office to liaise with the PRC offices and projects for accounting, finance, data analysis, corporate secretarial and other administrative matters of the group. In 2023, Hong Kong suffered from extreme hot weather in August with average temperature over 29.7 degree Celsius and record-breaking rainfall which caused severe flooding and landslides in September.CEDHL has around 9 staff (4 Directors,1 Senior Management and 4 General Staff who are often in the office) in Hong Kong and some of them need to work outdoors for certain business activities. CEDHL has an employees’ manual which follows the guideline from the Labour Department of Hong Kong and complies with the laws and regulations of Employment Ordinance and Occupational Safety and Health Ordinance for reminder to the employees on precaution of safety on the outdoor activities especially in case of bad and even extreme weathers such as typhoon number eight or above, black storm signal, flooding and landslide, etc.CEDHL’s administrative staff used emails and WhatsApp to communicate with our own Hong Kong staff on the safety of outdoor activities in the bad and extreme weathers. CEDHL has subscribed for compensation for employees in case of wound or other claims for outdoor works. For the last 3 years, including the Reporting Period, no staff made any claim or compensation from CEDHL on any accidents in the bad and extreme weathers.6.1.4氣候變化應對中能開發主要在香港設立辦事處，就集團的會計、財務、數據分析、公司秘書及其他行政事務與中國辦事處和項目進行聯系。

於二零二三年，香港在八月遭遇極端炎熱天氣，平均氣溫超過攝氏29.7度，而九月的降雨量也破了紀錄，導致嚴重水浸及山泥傾瀉。

中能開發在香港約有9名員工（包括4名董事、1名高級管理人員和4名經常在辦公室工作的一般職員），其中一些員工需要在戶外進行某些業務活動。

中能開發根據香港勞工處的指引，並遵照香港《僱傭條例》和《職業安全及健康條例》的法律法規，制定了員工手冊，提醒員工在戶外活動時注意安全，尤其是在惡劣甚至極端天氣下，如八號或以上颱風、黑色暴雨信號、水浸、及山泥傾瀉等。

中能開發的行政人員利用電子郵件和WhatsApp與香港員工就惡劣和極端天氣下戶外活動的安全問題進行了溝通。

中能開發為戶外工作中受傷或其他索賠的員工購買了保險賠償金。

7.克拉瑪依偉潤燃氣有限公司7.1環境偉潤燃氣的主要業務為管輸運送及分銷天然氣。

偉潤燃氣完全依托第三方管網輸送天然氣，故此日常營運對環境影響有限。

為了保障自然環境、資源及預防並減少突發事故所造成的損失，偉潤燃氣的管理層根據當地法律及規則已制定《克拉瑪依偉潤燃氣有限公司經營危險化學品事故應急預案》（下稱「《應急預案》」）。

《應急預案》的內容包括但不限於：對風險事故分類、識別及評估；50 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023應急組織的體系及職責；預防及預警，包括對危險源的監控及信息報告機制；應急處理的程序及措施；通訊與信息保障及應急物資裝備保障；及培訓、演練、維護及更新。

除此之外，為了讓安全生產規範化、為管理層及負責營運及維護的員工提供工作規定，偉潤燃氣已制定多項管理制度及安全制度，包括但不限於：《交換輪班管理制度》、《值班規定》、《管線道巡檢制度》、《設備管理制度》、《危險用品安全管理制度》、《天然氣安全技術說明書》、《安全事故管理辦法》、《安全風險管理制度》、《應急救援管理制度》、《消防安全管理制度》及《隱患危機排查及管理理制度》。

管理制度及安全制度的重點包括但不限於：員工在接班人員未到前不得擅自離開崗位；員工值班時必須定時檢察裝備是否有泄漏現象；員工必須通過相關專業和操作技能培訓及考試；員工必須熟悉天然氣的一般物理化學特性、技術流程、有關檢測設備的使用和保養及相關安全操作； the system and responsibilities of the emergency organisation; prevention and early warning, including monitoring of sources of hazards and information reporting mechanisms; procedures and measures for handling emergency; protection of communication, information, supplies and equipment for emergency; and training, drills, maintenance and updates.On top of that, in order to standardise production safety and provide work regulations for the management and employees responsible for the operations and maintenance, KWGCL has formulated a number of management systems and safety systems, including but not l imited to: Shift Handover Management System, Duty Regulations, Pipeline Inspection System, Equipment Management System, Dangerous Goods Safety Management System, Natural Gas Safety Data Sheet, Accident Management Measures, Safety Risk Management System, Emergency Rescue Management System, Fire Safety Management System and Hidden Danger Investigation and Governance System.The main emphasis of the managements systems and safety systems includes but not limited to: employees are not allowed to leave the post before the arrival of employees of next shift; employees must check the equipment regularly for leakages when on duty; employees must pass relevant professional and operational skills training and exams; employees must be familiar with the general physical and chemical properties of natural gas, technical process, use and maintenance of testing equipment, and related safety practices;51ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023 critical parts of the pipelines, that may leak when there are construction, passing of heavy vehicles and etc., must be heavily monitored (24 hours on- site monitor is necessary for crucial parts); and keep proper inspection records for verification and inspection.The major sources of emissions of KWGCL were from the office, dormitory, private cars in Xinjiang and business air travel by employees.Due to limited number of employees in Xinjiang, the amount of emission from the office and dormitory were relatively limited. The major sources of emissions were from air conditioning, electricity used, water used and natural gas used for heating.During the Reporting Period, KWGCL has complied with relevant laws and regulations relating to air and greenhouse gas emissions, discharges into water and land, and generation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, that have a significant impact on the Group.7.1.1 Air and Greenhouse Gas EmissionsDuring the Reporting Period of KWGCL, the source of direct air and greenhouse gas emissions from gaseous fuel consumption was mainly from the private cars.The air emissions of the private cars included nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulphur oxides (SOX) and respiratory suspended particles (RSP), while the greenhouse gas emissions of the private cars included carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).Other major direct greenhouse gas emissions were hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and perfluorocarbons (PFC), which were resulted from the use of air conditioning equipment in the office and dormitory.施工、過重車等可能造成管道漏氣的重點部位、必須重點監測（必要部位要24小時現場監控）；及妥善保管各種巡視檢查記錄，以備查驗。

偉潤燃氣的排放物主要來自其位於新疆的辦公室、宿舍及私家車，以及僱員乘坐飛機出外公幹。

由於在新疆工作的僱員數量有限，辦公室及宿舍的排放量比較少，其主要排放物來自空調、用電、用水及取暖用天然氣。

於匯報期內偉潤燃氣已遵守對本集團有重大影響的有關廢氣及溫室氣體排放、向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生等的相關法例及法規。

7.1.1廢氣及溫室氣體排放偉潤燃氣於匯報期內直接透過氣體燃料消耗排放廢氣及溫室氣體的來源主要為私家車。

私家車的廢氣排放包括氮氧化物(NOX)、硫氧化物(SOX)及懸浮顆粒(RSP)，而私家車的溫室氣體排放包括二氧化碳(CO2)、甲烷(CH4)及氧化亞氮(N2O)。

其他主要直接溫室氣體排放為使用辦公室及宿舍之空調時釋放的氫氟碳化物(HFC)及全氟化碳(PFC)。

52 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023其主要間接溫室氣體排放來源為僱員乘坐飛機出外公幹，以及辦公室及宿舍用電過程中產生的二氧化碳(CO2)。

其他次要的間接溫室氣體排放來源為：棄置辦公室及宿舍的固體廢物所產生的二氧化碳(CO2)排放；處理辦公室及宿舍用水及污水而消耗的電力之二氧化碳(CO2)排放；及取暖用天然氣之二氧化碳(CO2)排放。

7.1.2向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生偉潤燃氣於匯報期內主要向水的排放為辦公室及宿舍生活污水，排放量相對較少。

因為業務性質關係，有害廢棄物的產生很有限。

其主要無害廢棄物產生來源為辦公室及宿舍的固體廢物，排放量相對較少。

Its major indirect greenhouse gas emission was carbon dioxide (CO2) resulted from business air travel by employees and the generation of electricity, which was used in the office and dormitory.Other minor and indirect greenhouse gas emissions sources were: carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from disposal of solid waste at the office and dormitory; carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from the electricity used for processing fresh water and sewage for the office and dormitory; and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from the use of natural gas for heating.7.1.2 Discharge into Water and Land, and Generation of Hazardous and non- Hazardous WasteDuring the Reporting Period for KWGCL, the major source of discharge into water was from use of water in the office and dormitory, and the amount of discharge was relatively limited.Due to its business nature, the generation of hazardous waste was limited.The major source of non-hazardous waste was from the solid waste of the office and dormitory and the amount of discharge was relatively limited.53ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告20237.1.3 Policies and Use of ResourcesAs enterprises with social responsibility, KWGCL encourages their employees to use their best endeavours to reduce waste and emissions, with a view to contributing to the community and the environment. KWGCL believes in ‘many a little makes a mickle’, despite the fact that the amount of emission is very limited due to their business natures and relatively passive position in reducing waste and emissions. Regarding emission policies, all emissions are handled in accordance with local laws and regulations. In addition, KWGCL considers the efficient use of resources, such as electricity and water, is of equal importance to emission policies. Efficient use of resources not only can reduce waste and emissions from the sources, but also reduce operating expenses, which is mutually beneficial to the KWGCL and the environment.Policies relating to reduction of waste and emissions, and efficient use of resources include: encourage employees to use their best endeavours to take public transport during business trip; encourage employees to reduce unnecessary overseas business trip, thus reducing indirect carbon emissions; consider energy efficient products when procuring and replacing equipment, e.g. replacing incandescent lighting with LED lighting; turn off electrical appliances or switch them to standby mode when they are not in use, thus reducing the amount of electricity used; use double side printing, recycle papers and use electronic means to reduce paper usage; reuse office stationaries (e.g. envelopes and folders);7.1.3政策及資源使用作為具社會責任的企業，偉潤燃氣鼓勵僱員盡量減排減廢，為社會和環境付出一分力。

雖然因業務關係直接排放量相當有限，而於減排減廢方面處於相對被動的位置，但偉潤燃氣相信積少能成多。

就處理排放物政策方面，排放物皆根據本地法例和法規處理。

除此之外，偉潤燃氣認為有效使用資源也同樣重要，不但可以從源頭減排減廢，更可以減低營運成本，達至雙贏局面。

有關減排減廢和有效使用資源的措施包括：鼓勵僱員公幹時盡量乘搭公共運輸工具；鼓勵僱員減少非必要海外公幹，從而減少間接碳排放；更換及購買設備時考慮選擇較節能產品，例如以發光二極體燈取代傳統燈泡；無需使用時，將電器用品關掉或調節到休眠狀態，以減低用電量；使用雙面打印，並循環使用紙張及盡可能以電子方法取代用紙；重用辦公室文具用品（例如信封、檔案夾等）；54 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023離開辦公室前，關掉所有非必要照明、空調及器材；鼓勵僱員回收紙、膠樽和鋁罐；及鼓勵僱員通過回收計劃，回收設備如電腦和通訊器材等。

偉潤燃氣已識別環保風險並採取上述預防措施。

偉潤燃氣預計不存在任何對本集團財務及經營產生任何重大負面影響的重大違規風險。

8.1環境中國年代的主要業務為於中國新疆鑽探、勘探、開發及生產石油及╱或天然氣。

隨著新的天然氣處理設施於二零二零年七月一日全面運作，喀什北區塊合作項目聯合管理委員會決議於二零二零年十月一日起進入生商業生產期。

於匯報期內，天然氣處理設施運作正常。

中國年代已跟據當地有關法規編制《總體開發工程環境影響報告書》。

阿克莫木氣田項目為天然氣勘探開採項目，其環境影響因素主要來源於氣井及與其相關的鑽井、採氣、井下作業、天然氣集輸等各有關過程。

影響結果包括生態影響，以及排放的污染物質導致的環境污染。

項目範圍內沒有自然保護區、風景名勝區、文物古蹟保護區、水源保護區等敏感區。

除公司在氣田區工作人員外，沒有固定集中的人群活動區。

Under the terms of the Petroleum Contract, the evaluation costs, development costs and operating costs are to be recovered under mechanisms of cost-recovery and investment- recovery through oil and gas production. The remaining oil and gas production, after deducting cost and all taxes and royalty applicable in the PRC, will be available for profit-sharing as to 51% and 49% between CNPC and CEEPIL, respectively.As the operation under the Petroleum Contract is jointly managed by CEEPIL and CNPC, disclosure of ESG information of CEEPIL in relation to the Petroleum Contract is subject to approval by CNPC. Upon materiality assessment through stakeholder engagement and discussion with the ESG reporting team, the Group has decided to include CEEPIL in the reporting boundary of this Report. The ESG information of CEEPIL in relation to the Petroleum Contract approved for disclosure is limited, and the Group will endeavour to communicate with our business partners to enhance ESG disclosure of CEEPIL in coming years.During the year ended 31 December 2023, the terms of the Petroleum Contract did not have any significant changes.8.1 EnvironmentalCEEPIL is principally engaged in drilling, exploration, development and production of oil and/or natural gas in Xinjiang, PRC.Following the operation of the new gas processing faci l i t ies on 1 July 2020, the Joint Management Committee of North Kashi Block Cooperation Project resolved that the commerc ia l product ion stage commenced with effect from 1 October 2020. During the Reporting Period, the gas processing facilities are on the right track.CEEPIL has compiled the “Environmental Impact Report of the Overall Development Plan” in accordance with local regulations. The Akemomu Gas Field project is a natural gas exploration and extraction project and its environmental impact factors are mainly from gas well and related processes such as drilling, gas production, shaft operation, and natural gas gathering and transportation. The impact results include ecological impacts and environmental pollution caused by pollutants discharged. There are no sensitive areas such as nature reserves, scenic spots, cultural relics and historic sites protection area, and water source protection areas within the scope of the project. There is no fixed and concentrated crowd activity area, except for the company staff working in the gas field area.66 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023During the Reporting Period, the measured major sources of emissions of CEEPIL were from the office, dormitory and private cars in Xinjiang and business air travel by employees.Due to limited number of employees in Xinjiang, the amount of emission from the office and dormitory were relatively limited. The major sources of emissions are from air conditioning, electricity used, water used and natural gas used for heating.During the Reporting Period, CEEPIL has complied with relevant laws and regulations relating to air and greenhouse gas emissions, discharges into water and land, and generation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, that have a significant impact on the Group, including but not limited to: The Environmental Protection Law of the PRC; The Water Pollution Prevention Law of the PRC; The Solid Waste Pollution Prevention Law of the PRC; Integrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutants of the PRC; and Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard of the PRC.8.1.1 Air and Greenhouse Gas EmissionsThe impact of the Akemomu Gas Field project on the atmospheric environment can be divided into two stages, namely the development period and the operation period. The development period is mainly the impact of the flue gas emitted by the high-power diesel engine used in the drilling process on the atmosphere. The impact on the atmosphere during the development period is mainly the flue gas emitted by the high-power diesel engines used in the drilling process, while the impact on the atmospheric environment during the operation period is mainly the combustion flue gas generated by various heating furnaces and boilers.中國年代於匯報期內的已計量的排放物主要來自其位於新疆的辦公室、宿舍及私家車，以及僱員乘坐飛機出外公幹。

由於在新疆工作的僱員數量有限，辦公室及宿舍的排放量比較少，其主要排放物來自空調、用電、用水及取暖用天然氣。

於匯報期內中國年代已遵守對本集團有重大影響的有關廢氣及溫室氣體排放、向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生等的相關法例及法規，包括但不限於：中華人民共和國環境保護法；中華人民共和國水污染防治法；中華人民共和國固體廢物污染防治法；中華人民共和國大氣污染物綜合排放標準；及中華人民共和國污水綜合排放標準。

8.1.1廢氣及溫室氣體排放阿克莫木氣田項目對大氣環境的影響可分為兩個階段，即開發期和運作期。

開發期對大氣造成的影響主要是鑽井過程中使用的大功率柴油機排放的煙氣，而運作期對大氣環境造成的影響主要是各類加熱爐、鍋爐產生的燃燒煙氣。

67ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023開發期鑽井過程中的廢氣主要來自於大功率柴油機運轉時產生的燃燒煙氣，其中的主要污染物為烴類、氮氧化物(NOX)及硫氧化物(SOX)等。

由於鑽井期施工是短期行為，持續時間較短，施工過程對大氣環境的影響是暫時性的局部影響，並隨施工的結束而消失。

其影響分時間短、範圍小，施工期鑽井過程對大氣環境所造成的影響較輕。

運行期項目對大氣環境的影響是持續的長期影響，排放的廢氣主要是氣田內部各類以天然氣為燃料的加熱爐、鍋爐排放的煙氣以及站場無組織揮發的烴類氣體，燃燒煙氣中主要污染物為NOX、煙塵等。

該項目的廢氣及溫室氣體排於合乎《環境空氣質量標準》及《大氣污染物綜合排放標準》。

中國年代於匯報期內已計量的直接透過氣體燃料消耗排放廢氣及溫室氣體的來源主要為私家車。

私家車的廢氣排放包括氮氧化物(NOX)、硫氧化物(SOX)及懸浮顆粒(RSP)，而私家車的溫室氣體排放包括二氧化碳(CO2)、甲烷(CH4)及氧化亞氮(N2O)。

The exhaust gas during the drilling process in the development period mainly comes from the combustion flue gas generated when the high- power diesel engine is running. The main pollutants are hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulphur oxides (SOX). Since the construction during the drilling period is a short-term activity with a short duration, the impact of the construction process on the atmospheric environment is temporary and localized, which ends with the construction. The impact time is short and the impact area is small. The environmental impact of the drilling process during the construction period is relatively light.The impact of the project on the atmospheric environment during the operation period is a continuous long-term impact. The emissions are mainly from the flue gas discharged from various natural gas-fired heating furnaces and boilers in the gas field and the unorganised volatile hydrocarbon gas in the station. The main pollutants in the combustion flue gas are nitrogen oxides (NOX) and soot. The air and greenhouse gas emissions of the project are in compliance with “Ambient Air Quality Standards” and “Comprehensive Emissions Standards for Air Pollutants”.During the Reporting Period of CEEPIL, the measured source of direct air and greenhouse gas emissions from gaseous fuel consumption was mainly from the private cars.The air emissions of the private cars included nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulphur oxides (SOX) and respiratory suspended particles (RSP), while the greenhouse gas emissions of the private cars included carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).68 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023Its major indirect greenhouse gas emission was carbon dioxide (CO2) resulted from business air travel by employees and the generation of electricity, which was used in the office and dormitory.Other minor and indirect greenhouse gas emissions sources were: carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from disposal of solid waste at the office and dormitory; carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from the electricity used for processing fresh water and sewage for the office and dormitory; and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulted from the use of natural gas for heating.8.1.2 Discharge into Water and Land, and Generation of Hazardous and non- Hazardous WasteDuring the operation period of the project, the wastewater generated by the production and domestic use are treated and discharged into the evaporation pond, which has little impact on the surface water; the oil and gas pipeline crossing the surface water has good anti-corrosion measures, during its normal operation, it is not easy to leak and the impact on the surface water is also limited. As long as the gas pipeline is regularly inspected for leaks and the leaked products are recovered in time, the impact on the surface water during the project operation period can be reduced to a minimum.其主要間接溫室氣體排放來源為僱員乘坐飛機出外公幹，以及辦公室及宿舍用電過程中產生的二氧化碳(CO2)。

其他次要的間接溫室氣體排放來源為：棄置辦公室及宿舍的固體廢物所產生的二氧化碳(CO2)排放；處理辦公室及宿舍用水及污水而消耗的電力之二氧化碳(CO2)排放；及取暖用天然氣之二氧化碳(CO2)排放。

8.1.2向水及土地的排污、有害及無害廢棄物的產生在項目運營期，項目和生活所產生的污水經過處理後排入蒸發池，對地表水影響很小；穿越地表水的油氣管線有良好的防腐措施，在其正常運行期間，不易產生洩漏等情況，對地表水的影響也較小。

只要對輸氣管道的洩漏情況進行定期巡檢，並對事故狀態的洩漏品進行及時回收，項目運營期對地表水的影響可降低到最小。

69ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告2023在正常生產狀況下，氣田建設和生產運行過程中產生的污水及落地油等對地下水環境的影響較小。

本項目的生活用水量小，不會對該區地下水水量產生影響。

運營期主要水污染物為氣田採出水。

採出水主要來源於油藏本身的底水、邊水。

本工程採出水經污水處理裝置處理達標後回注地層。

本項目污水蒸發池均在池底和池壁進行了防滲處理，能有效的避免對項目區地下水的污染。

項目開發期產生的鑽井廢棄物採用鑽井廢棄物不落地達標處理技術進行處理，不建廢液池，處理後廢棄物鋪墊井場。

生活垃圾定期清運至垃圾填埋場衛生填埋。

運營期產生天然氣處理站內儲罐和污水處理裝置產生一定量的油泥和污泥屬於危險廢物，定期密閉裝車拉運至作業區暫存，最終統一拉運至環保處理站處理。

項目開發期及運營期產生的固體廢物根據其廢物屬性，按照一般固廢和危險固廢要求分類安全處置，不會對區域環境造成不利影響。

中國年代於匯報期內已計量的主要向水的排放為辦公室及宿舍生活污水，排放量相對較少。

其主要已計量的無害廢棄物產生來源為辦公室及宿舍的固體廢物，排放量相對較少。

Under normal production conditions, sewage and oil generated during gas field construction and production operations have little impact on the underground water environment. The domestic water consumption of this project is limited and will not affect the underground water in the area. The main water pollutants in the operation period are produced water from gas fields. The produced water mainly comes from the bottom water and edge water of the gas reservoir itself. The produced water of this project will be injected into the stratum after being treated by the sewage treatment device to meet the standard. The sewage evaporation pool of this project has been treated with anti-sewage treatment at the bottom and the wall of the pool, which can effectively avoid the pollution of the underground water in the project area.The drilling waste generated during the project development period is treated with the drilling waste non-landing treatment technology, no waste liquid pool is built, and the treated waste is used to pave the well site. Domestic waste is regularly transported to sanitary landfills. During the operation period, a certain amount of oil sludge and sludge generated in the storage tank and sewage treatment device in the natural gas processing station are hazardous wastes. They are regularly sealed, loaded and transported to the operation area for temporary storage, and finally they are transported to the environmental treatment station for treatment. The solid waste generated during the development and operation of the project is classified and safely disposed according to its waste attributes and in accordance with the requirements of general solid waste and hazardous solid waste, without adversely affecting the regional environment.During the Reporting Period for CEEPIL, the measured major source of discharge into water was from the use of water in the office and dormitory, and the amount of discharge was relatively limited.The measured major source of non-hazardous waste was from the solid waste of the office and dormitory and the amount of discharge was relatively limited.70 China Energy Development Holdings Limited中國能源開發控股有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 2023環境、社會及管治報告20238.1.3 Policies and Use of ResourcesAs enterprises with social responsibility, CEEPIL encourages their employees to use their best endeavours to reduce waste and emissions, with a view to contributing to the community and the environment. Regarding emission policies, all emissions are handled in accordance with local laws and regulations. In addition, CEEPIL considers the efficient use of resources, such as electricity and water, is of equal importance to emission policies. Efficient use of resources not only can reduce waste and emissions from the sources, but also reduce operating expenses, which is mutually beneficial to the CEEPIL and the environment.Policies relating to reduction of waste and emissions, and efficient use of resources include: encourage employees to use their best endeavours to take public transport during business trip; encourage employees to reduce unnecessary overseas business trip, thus reducing indirect carbon emissions; consider energy efficient products when procuring and replacing equipment, e.g. replacing incandescent lighting with LED lighting; turn off electrical appliances or switch them to standby mode when they are not in use, thus reducing the amount of electricity used; use duplex printing, recycle papers and use electronic means to reduce paper usage; reuse office stationaries (e.g. envelopes and folders);8.1.3政策及資源使用作為具社會責任的企業，中國年代鼓勵僱員盡量減排減廢，為社會和環境付出一分力。

就處理排放物政策方面，排放物皆根據本地法例和法規處理。

除此之外，中國年代認為有效使用資源也同樣重要，不但可以從源頭減排減廢，更可以減低營運成本，達至雙贏局面。
