6 2 Segment information Business segments The management has determined the operating segments based on the internal reports reviewed and used by executive directors of the Company, who are the chief operating decision makers ("CODM"), for strategic decision making. The CODM consider the business from a pr oduct and service perspective. The Group is organised into certain business units according to the nature of the produ cts sold or services provided. The CODM review operating results and financial information of each business unit separately. Accordingly, each business unit (including joint ventures and associates) is identified as an operating segme nt. These operating segments with similar economic characteristics and similar nature of products sold or services provided have been aggregated into the following reporting segments. • Power generation segment – operation of wind, solar and energy -storage power plants through subsidiaries, generating electricity for sale to external power grid companies or electric utilities and large power consuming enterprises, investing in power plants through joint ventures and associates. • “Others” segment – provision of power -related professional services for renewable energy projects, including power engineering design, technical consulting, construction management, electricity trading and asset operation management, as well as AI data centre development and integrated power solution. The CODM assess the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of adjusted earnings before interest and income tax. This measurement basis excludes the effects of non -recurring income and expenditure from the operating segments. Inter-segment sales and transfers are transacted with reference to the selling prices used for sales made to the third parties at the then prevailing market prices. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as th e Group's accounting policies. Segment profit represents the profit earned by each segment without allocation of central administration costs, directors' remuneration, certain other gains and losses, certain other income, interest revenue and finance costs , after inter-segment elimination. For the purposes of monitoring segment performance and allocating resources between segments, all assets and liabilities are allocated to operating segments other than assets and liabilities attributable to head office.

15 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS I. BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT In the first half of 2026, the global renewable energy industry continued its steady progress on the pathway of low- carbon energy transition, with two prominent trends: artificial intelligence (AI) -driven load growth and a heightened focus on energy supply security. As grid integration and power market reforms reshape the industry, its growth model is shifting from rapid capacity expansion toward a new phase of structural growth centered on value creation, system-level coordination and a broader range of application scenarios. (1) Continued Growth in Global Renewable Energy According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electricity demand is expected to increase by 3.6%, mainly driven by electrification and investment in AI data centers (AIDCs). Renewable power generation is projected to grow by more than 8% and surpass coal-fired generation during the year. In the first half of 2026, the cumulative installed capacity of wind and solar power in China continued to grow at a relatively rapid pace , rising by 18.5% and 15.8% year -on-year, respectively. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects the United States will add 43.4 GW of utility -scale solar capacity in 2026, approximately 60% more than the additions in 2025. Having achieved its 2 GWp solar target, Singapore upwardly revised its 2030 target to 3 GWp, further accelerating the development of distributed solar PV. (2) AI Reshaping the Global Power Landscape In the United States, AI has become the principal driver propelling electricity demand back onto a growth trajectory. While supporting technology companies in scaling up AI data center (AIDC) investments, the U .S. federal government has introduced a series of policies explicitly mandating that AIDCs procure or build their own power generation capacity under the Bring Your Own Generation (BYOG) framework and bear the associated costs, thereby shielding other ratepayers from rate increases driven by AI -related load growth. This is expected to spur the rise of behind-the-meter (BTM) energy campus models for AIDCs. In Southeast Asia, even as Singapore resumes AIDC power allocations, strong regional AI demand is driving spillover investment into neighboring coun tries. These countries are enhancing policy incentives while adopting Singapore-grade standards for Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and green power consumption ratios, ensuring that cross-border computing workloads meet applicable carbon requirements. In China, "Computing -Electricity Synergy and Mutual Enablement" has become a national strategic priority, establishing a policy framework anchored in top -down coordination, nationwide spatial planning, and market - based mechanisms. This framework imposes stric ter energy efficiency and green power mandates on newly built AIDCs.
Page 17
16 (3) Synergistic Innovation in Technology Advancement and Market Mechanisms In wind power, R&D priorities have shifted toward extending the fault-free operating lifespan of blades, enhancing long-term turbine reliability, and advancing grid -forming capabilities for wind farms. In solar PV, perovskite - silicon tandem cells have once again broken laboratory conversion efficiency records, while solar-powered orbital AIDCs have emerged as a new frontier of research. In energy storage, BESS incorporating 600Ah+ cells is advancing rapidly towards commercialization. A diverse range of technologies, including vanadium redox flow batteries and advanced compressed -air energy storage (CAES), is gaining cost competitiveness and expanding the options available for long -duration energy storage (LDES). Standards, dispatch mechanisms and trading rules for Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) —which aggregate distributed generation and flexible loads —are maturing. New business models that enable coordinated resources to participate in power markets at scale are attracting increasing attention. Technological innovation and market mechanisms are mutually reinforcing, unlocking novel business models and development opportunities. (4) Diverging Interest Rate Policies across Major Economies In the first half of 2026, interest rate policies among major central banks diverged, reflecting energy price shocks stemming from Middle East tensions and resurgent inflation. The U.S. Federal Reserve maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 3.50%–3.75%, unchanged from the start of the year. The European Central Bank raised rates by 25 basis points in June, lifting its marginal lending facility rate to 2.65%. In China, the 5-year-plus Loan Prime Rate (LPR) remained at 3.50%, a low level in recent years. The market anticipates that the Chinese government will introduce growth-supportive measures in the second half of the year, potentially prompting policy rate cuts that would further lower domestic financing costs in China. (5) Accelerating Expansion of Renewable Energy Asset Securitization Supported by favorable policies, renewable energy asset securitization and asset transactions in China have become increasingly active. Public REITs ba cked by renewable energy assets are expanding on a regular basis, inter - institutional REITs issuances are flourishing, and long -term institutional investors such as insurance capital are actively investing in renewable energy private equity funds. In addition, some renewable energy operators have also undertaken capital transactions through spin -off listings and targeted capital increases . Consequently, the comprehensive "invest-finance-manage-exit" lifecycle ecosystem for renewable energy assets continues to mature, capital structuring options are diversifying, a nd the addressable market for third-party asset management services is expanding steadily.

17 Ⅱ. BUSINESS REVIEW During the reporting period, the Group advanced its project development, achieved notable progress in commercial development cooperation across China, successfully commissioned solar power projects in Singapore and New Zealand, and transitioned its first renewable energy private fund into the post-investment management phase. Asset optimization advanced steadily, cost reduction and efficiency enhancement delivered tangible results, and administrative and financing costs declined further, demonstrating the e ffectiveness of the Group's strategic transformation in recent years. However, profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company experienced a substantial year-on-year decline, primarily weighed down by the combined headwinds of rising wind and sol ar curtailment, subdued resource conditions amid abnormal weather, lower electricity tariffs, and the phase -out of preferential tax incentives, against an increasingly complex and challenging operating backdrop. In the first half of 2026, the Group achiev ed revenue of RMB1,257,819,000 (1H2025: RMB1,400,319,000), representing a year -on-year decrease of 10.2%. Profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Group amounted to RMB100,594,000 (1H2025: RMB281,940,000), representing a year-on-year decrease of 64.3%. Basic earnings per share was RMB1.29 cents (1H2025: RMB3.58 cents), and diluted earnings per share was RMB1.29 cents (1H2025: RMB3.58 cents). As at 30 June 2026, the Group had net assets of RMB8,700,119,000 (31 December 2025: RMB8,652,449,000), and the net assets per share attributable to equity shareholders of the Company was RMB1.10 (31 December 2025: RMB1.08), while the debt-to-asset ratio was 72.3% (31 December 2025: 73.9%). (1) Further Progress in Project Development The Group moved early to capture power demand opportunities from surging global AI investment, establishing a presence in AIDC development and related integrated energy solutions in the United States, Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe. Overall progress has been solid. To address A IDCs' high power density, stringent power quality standards, and expedited delivery timelines, the Group is developing tailored clean power solutions designed to deliver long -term, stable, and cost -competitive green electricity by integrating renewable ene rgy and storage projects into AIDC infrastructure. Building on this foundation, the Group's innovative AIDC energy solutions business is gradually maturing. Alongside the advancement of several PPA -backed solar PV projects, the Group is actively pursuing long-term PPAs for a pipeline of new renewable energy projects in mature markets where electricity demand is expanding rapidly and appetite for green power is strong. These PPAs will enhance the projects' earnings visibility and bankability, reinforcing the pipeline to support asset portfolio optimization and future growth. Through diversified cooperative development models, the Group accelerated the value realization of projects in China with secured development approvals. During the reporting period, the Group signed commercial development agreements covering an aggregate capacity of 1,070 MW. Grid interconnection approvals and other pre-construction prerequisites for additional projects are progressing in an orderly manner.
