of November 11, Zhou Yuxian, President of China Cement Association, and his delegation visited Taiwan Cement Mainland Operation Headquarters in Gongliang Building, Hangzhou, and conducted extensive and in-depth exchanges with Qiu Yuwen, General Manager of Hangzhou Operation Headquarters of Taiwan Cement Group, and other senior executives on issues such as green low-carbon transformation, capacity management and international layout.

Chiu Yu-wen welcomed Chou Yu-hsien and his entourage on behalf of Taiwan Cement Corporation. He said that Chairman Chang An-ping has repeatedly stressed that carbon reduction and sustainability must become the DNA of Taiwan Cement Corporation. Taiwan Cement is the first cement enterprise in East Asia to pass the SBT 1.5 ° C audit and commit to achieve the net zero target in 2050, and was formally approved by SBTi in September this year and completed the verification process. Faced with the severe challenges faced by the industry as a whole, Taiwan Cement has always adhered to the bottom line, produced strictly in accordance with the approved production capacity, and continued to invest the necessary funds to upgrade and transform to achieve carbon reduction targets. He also hoped that the China Cement Association, together with the relevant government departments, would lead the industry to get rid of the involution competition and achieve healthy and sustainable development from the policy and market levels. President

Zhou Yuxian thanked Taiwan Cement for its long-term strong support for the work of the association as a vice president unit, and expressed his appreciation for Taiwan Cement's example in green carbon reduction and its forward-looking vision in international expansion. He said that the association has recently begun to cooperate with relevant government departments to establish a peak-staggering production plan aimed at balancing supply and demand, and to impose strong penalties on enterprises that do not strictly implement the approved production capacity.

He said that the association attaches great importance to the business difficulties caused by the industry volume, and will actively play a bridge role to promote the implementation of the dual-control policy as soon as possible, and strive to build a good ecology of the industry. Wang Jianchao and Ding Zhengping, Secretary-General of

China Cement Association, Yao Hairong, Vice President and Secretary-General of Zhejiang Cement Association, and Lan Cenwei and Song Chenjia, Deputy General Manager of Hangzhou Operating Headquarters of Taiwan Cement Group participated in the discussion.

After the meeting, Zhou Yuxian and his delegation also visited the Taini Gongliang Building, which was certified as a double platinum green building, and the demonstration project of "light charging and storage" integration of Taini's self-developed cement energy storage cabinet with photovoltaic and charging facilities.
