Abstract

Global environmental governance and sustainable development have become increasingly important since the 21st century, making the ESG concept a significant dimension for measuring the comprehensive value of companies. This paper takes Longi Green Energy Technology, a photovoltaic enterprise, as an example, analyzing the combined influence of ESG performance on Financial Performance. By comparing Longi Green Energy Technology’s (hereafter referred to as “Longi”) annual reports and sustainability reports from 2022 to 2024, this study finds that Longi’s ESG performance exerts an overall positive effect on the improvement and stabilization of its financial performance, thereby enhancing its market competitiveness. Meanwhile, a variety of factors have led to issues during the process of its ESG development. This paper also focuses on the analysis and resolution of these problems. From the theoretical perspective, this paper combines the theories of ESG development and fills the gap in the case study research of photovoltaic enterprises in relevant fields, contributing to ESG research. From the practical perspective, the ESG development of Longi is representative both in the Chinese market and the photovoltaic industry, endowing this case study with certain referential significance.
