Note 1: [Calculation Formula] Greenhouse gas emission intensity = (Scope 1 + Scope 2 + Scope 3) / Operating revenue. Note 1: [Calculation Formula] Total comprehensive energy consumption = Direct energy consumption + Indirect energy consumption.Note 2: [Calculation Formula] Total GHG emissions = Scope 1 GHG emissions + Scope 2 GHG emissions + Scope 3 GHG emissions. Note 2: [Calculation Formula] Comprehensive energy consumption intensity = Total comprehensive energy consumption / Operating
revenue.Note 3: [Calculation Formula] Direct energy consumption = Natural gas consumption + Gasoline consumption + Diesel consumption.Note 4: [Calculation Formula] Indirect energy consumption = Purchased electricity consumption.Note 5: [Calculation Formula] Clean energy consumption = Natural gas consumption + Solar energy consumption. Proportion of each type of
clean energy = (Consumption of that type of clean energy / Total clean energy consumption) × 100%.
