GoodWe is a solar inverter manufacturer with first-year third-party-verified emissions data, but has no absolute reduction targets, no SBTi commitment, and tripled operational emissions between 2022 and 2024 due to scope expansion. Supply chain emissions (3.7M tCO₂e) lack granular breakdown and supplier reduction programmes. No science-based climate roadmap exists.
GoodWe Technologies scores 37/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Fees pay for the review, never the result. Last verified October 2026.
That places GoodWe Technologies joint 439th of 858 companies scored, and joint 16th of 34 in Electronics / Hardware.
