Recently, the United Nations Global Compact organization launched the "Sino-Africa Corporate Community Action Network on Sustainable Development" at its Beijing headquarters. HiTHIUM, along with representatives from United Nations agencies, African diplomatic missions in China, businesses, academic institutions, and media outlets, discussed strategies for addressing ESG challenges and promoting sustainable development in African operations. This gathering aimed to cultivate partnerships to enhance sustainable development within African communities, enhancing livelihoods, expediting the attainment of sustainable development objectives, and mark the network's inauguration.

In line with the objectives outlined in the United Nations Global Compact organization's "China Strategy" and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, UNGC launched the "Sino-Africa Corporate Community Action Network on Sustainable Development" at its liaison office in China. This network provides a platform for dialogue and collaboration among stakeholders from the public sector, corporate entities, international organizations, academic institutions, media entities, and other parties involved in African investments. Through ongoing collaboration, the network is dedicated to addressing various challenges such as environmental sustainability, labor rights, SDG innovation, youth empowerment, and healthcare. It aims to assist enterprises in navigating sustainable development challenges in African operations and fostering collaborations across diverse sectors.

HiTHIUM has demonstrated steadfast commitment to the cause of sustainable development and actively espouses the ethos of sustainability. Last year, HiTHIUM innovatively introduced its pioneering energy equity product, HeroEE. Leveraging HiTHIUM 's industrial-grade energy storage batteries and photovoltaic energy storage integrated intelligent systems, HeroEE boosts the lifespan up to 10 years, with a cost per kilowatt-hour amortized at a mere $0.05 (approximately RMB 0.4). For energy poverty households, the HeroEE system can support 80 hours of illumination and 16 hours of fan operation, thereby facilitating access to real-time information and educational resources, engendering prospects for personal advancement. Simultaneously, the HeroEE system catalyzes household-level microenterprise activities, supporting 80 hours of irrigation and 10 hours of sewing machine operation, thereby empowering denizens of energy-deprived regions to augment household incomes and enhance living standards. In the realm of public health, HeroEE accommodates small-scale medical equipment, including medical refrigerators, facilitating the storage of vaccines and medicines, and consequently, saving numerous lives. HiTHIUM harnesses technological innovation to advance energy equity through the HeroEE solution, and contributing to the realization of SDG7.

As a participating corporate entity, HiTHIUM also unveiled a philanthropic initiative to promote renewable energy entrepreneurship in Nigeria, aiming to enhance sustainable development in local communities. Over the next three years, HiTHIUM will spearhead renewable energy entrepreneurship initiatives targeting Nigerian youth, with the objective of nurturing local youths equipped with the acumen to spearhead the construction and maintenance of off-grid energy infrastructure and entrepreneurship ventures for community advancement.

Guan Wei, General Manager HiTHIUM's User Scenario Incubation Center, commented at the event, "Let green energy benefit all is our unwavering mission. While diligently creating value and propelling our own development, we harbor an obligation to contribute to sustainable development. Through this project, we aspire to furnish Nigerian youth with opportunities to acquire and deploy renewable energy technologies, effectuating tangible contributions to community development. Furthermore, we endeavor to heighten awareness and garner support for the HeroEE solution, thereby making significant strides in eliminating energy poverty."

This project reflects HiTHIUM's enduring dedication to sustainable development and its efforts to contribute to African communities. HiTHIUM will collaborate closely with the "Sino-Africa Corporate Community Action Network on Sustainable Development" and other partners to advance sustainable development goals and promote regional economic and social progress.
