temporary supplementary working capital to
the special account of the Shanwei
Industrial Park Project after the approval of the
shareholders' general meeting and open a special account for proceeds for the new project, and
sign a supervision agreement with the sponsor and the bank
supervising the special account for proceeds. The remaining
proceeds of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project will be transferred
to the changed special account for proceeds according to the
above-mentioned amount of the proceeds to be used after
consideration, and
the corresponding net interest (interest income less
handling fee expenses, subject to the bank balance of proceeds on the
date when it is transferred out) will be transferred in full to the special account for
proceeds of the Mingyang Xinminbao Project. The special account for
proceeds of the Shanwei Industrial Park Project will be cancelled
accordingly, and the supervision agreement for proceeds signed by
the Company with the sponsor and the bank supervising the special
account for proceeds will also be terminated
accordingly.
II.
Specific reasons for changes in the proceeds-funded
projects
(I)
Planned investment and actual investment in the
original project
The implementing entity of the
original Shanwei Industrial Park Project is Shanwei Mingyang New
Energy Technology Co., Ltd. ("Shanwei
Mingyang"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company. Its construction work is the R&D and production
base for large offshore wind power equipment, including the R&D and manufacturing of large offshore wind
turbines, the manufacturing of offshore wind turbine blade
equipment and the construction of related supporting facilities.
Specific construction content includes plant, production equipment
and supporting office building, dormitory, floating dock and
12-15MW offshore wind turbine R & D project of the production
base project.
The Shanwei Industrial Park Project
originally proposed to use proceeds of 1,499,514,100, and as at 31
July 2024, actual proceeds of 608,402,100 had been invested. At
present, the construction of plant, some production equipment and
ancillary office buildings, dormitories and the research and
development project of 12-15MW offshore wind turbines for the
production base project of the project has been completed. By the
end of 2023, the Shanwei Industrial Park Project has achieved
cumulative benefits of 488,453,100.
(II) Specific reasons for the changes in the proceeds-funded
projects
According to the project feasibility
study report, the total investment of the project was 2,500
million, as at 31 July 2024, the cumulative
total amount invested in the project was 1,623,746,500, and the
difference between the actual investment amount and the planned
investment amount was 876,253,500, and the main reasons for the
large difference between the actual investment amount and the
planned investment amount of the project were: 1) the reduction of
investment in some of the equipment and production lines due to the
market situation in Shanwei area and the Company's business layout;
2) the saving of cost by adopting optimized design for some of the
construction elements and the replacement of imported equipment
with domestic equipment. The project was proposed to use the
proceeds of 1,499,514,100, and as of 31
July 2024, the amount of proceeds invested
was 608,402,100,
the remaining unutilised
proceeds amounted to 891,112,000.

Note 1: The balance of 12-15MW
offshore wind turbine development amounted to 318,295,300, as
detailed below:
(1) Optimization
of the number of prototype development units: Due to the complexity
of the research and development and system structure design of
offshore ultra-large wind turbines, in order to guarantee the
successful development of the project, the original plan was to
install two prototypes successively for testing and validation. The
completion of the first prototype testing and verification results
showed that the project has reached the expected goals, and there
was no need to invest in the research and development of another
prototype, reducing the prototype materials and related investment
of 162,076,000;
(2) As a
result of the research and development innovation, the research and
development of the project was adjusted from single main bearing
compact semi-direct drive technology to double main bearing
semi-direct drive technology, the research and development cost was
significantly reduced, while the price of some components in the
industry was reduced, and the overall cost of the research and
development for a single unit was reduced by 73,820,500;
(3) No
inputs such as sea cable and conduit rack foundation, reducing
inputs by 70.0000 million. According to the planning of the project
feasibility study, the offshore wind farm where the prototype is
located needs to install the conduit rack foundation, sea cables
and other ancillary equipment, but in the actual research and
development process of the project to make full use of the testing
environment that has already been available, and arranged for the
prototype to be tested at the owner's offshore wind farms that have
the same testing conditions, so that there is no need to invest in
the sea cables and conduit rack foundation;
(4) The
design and testing of the prototype part was changed from the
original planning of joint development to independent research and
development and testing, reducing the technical service fee by
12,398,800.
Note 2: The balance of the purchase
of production equipment amounted to661,178,800, as detailed below:
(1) The total
investment in equipment purchase for the production base project reduced by 559,138,800 for
optimization purpose, including 1)
the investment in purchase of certain
equipment reduced t by 495,138,800. As the market demand for
projects in Hainan region and Yangjiang region increases, the two
regions have attracted more investment and production resources,
resulting in a decrease in the demand for production resources and
the demand for delivery of wind turbine orders in the Shanwei area.
Therefore, in light of the market conditions, the Company
reduced the investment and construction of certain
equipment originally planned for the project. 2) Due to factors such as process optimization, the
optimization of production line design as well as the substitution
of domestic equipment for imported equipment, the investment
reduced by 64 million.
(2) The
total investment for optimization of floating wind turbine wharfs
amounted to 102.04 million. In order to develop the offshore
industry, the local government has optimized the construction of the wharf and
related supporting infrastructure, which can provide complete wharf
loading and unloading services to the Company. Therefore, the
Company suspended the construction of the floating wind turbine
wharf originally planned for such project and changed to leasing
the governmental wharf for loading and unloading, so reducing the
investment by 102.04 million.
