Sunrock's Supply Chain ESG Challenges

Material stakeholders in Sunrock's supply chains include communities affected by mining operations for minerals used in sourced components.
The company's supply chains also have actual and potential environmental impacts, requiring cooperation from EPC and Operations and Maintenance partners.

Challenges in Building Solar Projects

Sunrock constructed approximately 200 MWp of PV plants in 2022.
Challenges faced include rising costs, material availability, and labor shortage.
Visibility into and access to credible data about social and environmental impacts at different nodes of the supply chains remain a major concern.

Responsible Sourcing

Critical goods needed in solar parks often come from countries with poor track records of complying with international social and environmental standards.
Strengthening the upstream ESG approach is critical to address actual and potential negative impacts in the supply chains.

Office Supplies and Team Events

Material circularity and responsible sourcing are key considerations in the procurement of office supplies and necessities.
Many supplies come from local companies committed to social and environmental sustainability.
Examples of sustainable practices include:
- Using recycled materials for pens and books.
- Increasing the lifespan of office chairs, including repairing and upholstering.
- Purchasing responsibly produced food and donating surplus to charities.
- Providing reusable Dopper bottles at events and using public transport for company events.

Circularity Actions

The goal is to achieve 0% of obsolete materials ending up in incinerators or landfills by 2050 and 50% circularity in 2030.
The circularity calendar includes engaging in dialogue with external stakeholders, formulating a vision on circularity, and developing an action plan to reduce material use.

Employee-Driven Approach to ESG

The ESG working group contributes to improving understanding of specific ESG topics through employee-driven initiatives.
