Zhejiang Expressway Co., Ltd. (ZHEJIANGEXPRESS) has released its 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report, detailing performance for the year ended 31 December 2025 and confirming board-level oversight of sustainability strategy.
• Financial highlights: Operating revenue reached RMB 19.80 billion, with net profit attributable to shareholders at RMB 5.30 billion and total assets of RMB 293.40 billion. Tax payments totalled RMB 2.00 billion.
• Governance and compliance: The company held 13 board meetings and three shareholder meetings during 2025, approving 42 resolutions. A re-organised single-tier governance structure replaces the former supervisory board; oversight is channelled through an enhanced Audit Committee. Anti-corruption controls included two company-wide training sessions and one session for directors, with no corruption litigation recorded.
• ESG framework: A three-tier governance model—Board/Strategy Committee, Board Secretary’s Office, and business units—anchors sustainability management. Executive compensation now factors in metrics such as road disruption recovery and service satisfaction.
• Environmental performance: Total greenhouse-gas emissions stood at 91,586.79 tonnes CO₂e (Scope 1: 9,160.36 tonnes; Scope 2: 69,884.75 tonnes; Scope 3: 12,541.68 tonnes). Energy consumption totalled 19,152.55 tonnes of standard coal equivalent. Photovoltaic capacity rose to 16.30 MW, generating 119.20 million kWh of green electricity; no environmental fines were incurred. Waste generation fell to 159,672 tonnes, with 100 % handled through compliant channels. The firm has set a carbon-intensity ceiling of 37 tonnes of CO₂e per kilometre of operating expressway by 2025 and targets a plateau below 36 tonnes/km by 2030.
• Social indicators: The labour contract signing rate and social-insurance coverage both remained at 100 %. Average training reached 40 hours per employee, backed by RMB 4.86 million in training investment. Work-related fatalities were zero and the lost-time injury frequency rate was 3.80 per million hours worked. Community initiatives included RMB 5.30 million in charitable donations and 1,327 hours of volunteer service.
• Service quality and safety: Customer satisfaction improved to 98.71 %, while the average incident clearance time on the road network shortened to 28.10 minutes. A new drone-enabled “ground-air” monitoring system now identifies abnormal events within five seconds; dynamic hard-shoulder management and an online rescue platform logged over 480,000 direct-tow services with a 99 % satisfaction rate.
• Awards: 2025 accolades ranged from the 15th China Securities “Golden Bauhinia” Outstanding High-Quality Development Listed Company award to multiple national recognitions for technological innovation, ESG disclosure and highway-culture integration.
ZHEJIANGEXPRESS plans to deepen digitalisation, expand renewable-energy projects—such as integrated solar-storage stations and battery-swapping for heavy trucks—and intensify community engagement as it moves toward 2030 peak-carbon goals while enhancing travel safety and service quality across its 2,382-kilometre expressway network.
