Liaoning Port released its 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report, detailing progress on carbon and energy targets, workforce development and governance reforms.
The port group’s total greenhouse-gas emissions fell 18.29% year-on-year to 382,632.93 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent, supported by a 9.96 million kWh rise in self-generated photovoltaic power to 30.05 million kWh. Clean and renewable energy accounted for 51.34% and 2.32% of total energy consumption respectively.
Energy consumption per RMB 1 million of revenue declined to 11.58 tonnes of standard coal, while carbon intensity dropped to 13.15 tonnes per 10,000 tonnes of cargo throughput—both meeting the company’s “14th Five-Year” interim goals.
Environmental capital expenditure reached RMB 112.03 million, financing full installation of shore-power at passenger–ro-ro berths, a 4.05 MW rooftop PV project and nine methanol-handling berths across three port areas. Shore-power connection time exceeded 3,600 hours for 3,119 vessel calls, and the group completed the first bonded green-methanol bunkering service in Northeast China.
Wastewater discharge declined 19.86% to 361,447.64 tonnes, and solid-waste recycling stood at 12.68%. No environmental penalties, major spills or non-compliance events were recorded.
On the social front, the company employed 10,561 staff, with 100% social-insurance coverage and zero occupational disease cases. Training hours averaged 124 per employee, up 11.7% year-on-year, covering safety, compliance and ESG topics.
Governance reforms included abolition of subsidiary Boards of Supervisors and formation of new Audit Committees under a streamlined Board structure. Independent directors represent one-third of the Board, and ESG performance indicators have been embedded in senior management remuneration.
With total energy investment of RMB 96.12 million and work-safety spending of RMB 99.61 million, Liaoning Port reiterated its goal of building a near-zero-carbon terminal cluster in Northeast Asia while aligning with national “carbon-peaking and neutrality” timelines.
