Digitization is the most important trend in various industries in the 21st century. Withcontinuous advancements in energy technology and productivity, and the country'sfirm commitment to the "Dual Carbon" strategy, a profound energy revolution isunderway, presenting numerous opportunities and challenges for the energy industry.The company has formulated multiple strategies to better seize these opportunities,while also addressing risks, particularly financial risks. Although the debtors of thecompany's accounts receivable are primarily creditworthy and financially strongpower and water companies, with good recovery guarantees for accounts receivableand a relatively low risk of bad debt losses, the company has already established aprudent bad debt provision policy in line with accounting standards. However, if thecompany's accounts receivable continue to rise significantly, clients experiencedeteriorating financial conditions or are unable to make payments on time, or thecompany faces tighter external funding conditions, it could face considerableoperating capital pressure, negatively impacting the company's production andoperations and financial situation. To address this, the company has imposed higherrequirements on aspects such as strategic planning, organizational structure, internalcontrol, operational management, and financial management, striving to mitigate theimpact of these risks.
