March 28, 2023

Fellow Shareholders,

In 2022, we closed with $81.4 million revenue, 30.1% gross margin, and $17.4 million EBITDA amid challenging market conditions caused by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, volatile energy markets, inflation, supply chain disruptions, and rising interest rates. Despite these challenges, we continued to execute our core solar project development strategy, diversify of our global footprint and advance our positioning as a leading global solar company. Let me summarize our key accomplishments in 2022:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We monetized approximately 192 MWs of solar projects in 2022** compared to 128 MWs in 2021. Sales
primarily included 70 MW of utility solar projects in Pennsylvania, 12 MW of community solar projects in the U.S., 58 MW of utility projects
in Poland, and a 12 MW utility project in Germany.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We grew our project pipeline to a record 3.0 GWs.** In the beginning of the 2022, we set a goal to
grow our mid-to-late stage pipeline to 3 GW at the end of the year. Thanks to our team's strong execution in face of a challenging
macro environment and our strategic acquisitions, we achieved that goal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We acquired a 50 MWp fully operational solar farm in Branston, U.K.,** which initiated our European
IPP strategy, which will add predictable and stable cash flows to complement our project sales business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We acquired Emeren, an Italy-based utility scale solar power and battery storage project developer in Europe.** Emeren has over 2.5 GW of pipeline under development (at different stages) including over 2 GW of solar projects and over
500 MW of storage projects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We commercialized our first inaugural IPP project in Hungary.** The 10 MWp project is our first self-developed
and self-constructed IPP project in Hungary, which is another project to our growing IPP assets in Europe, following the 50 MWp Project
Branston that we acquired in the UK.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **We accumulated over 1.5 GW of storage pipeline.** We are optimistic that our storage business initiatives
and growing pipeline will become an important growth driver for the company. We expect contribution from our storage business beginning
in 2023.

In early 2023, we changed our name and rebranded to Emeren. Emeren stands for Empowering Renewables, to symbolize our substantial progress and continued dedication to growing solar and renewable energy development globally to deliver affordable and sustainable energy.

**Looking Forward**

Looking forward to 2023 and beyond, we are well positioned in the world's fastest growing solar markets that are benefiting from increasing demand for clean energy, rising PPA prices, and supportive government policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· For our project development business, we continue to see strong demand for solar projects globally. We
entered 2023 with 3 GWs of high quality mid-to-late stage pipeline and we anticipate to monetize approximately 400 MW – 450 MW in
2023 and we are targeting to grow this pipeline to 4 GW by the end of 2023. Beyond 2023, we are targeting to monetize a minimum 500 MW
 – 600 MW a year.

![](image_002.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· We are excited for strong contribution from our recent acquisitions, Branston and Emeren. We expect these
assets to contribute approximately $20 million revenue and $10 million EBITDA in 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Regarding our IPP strategy in Hungary, as a result of S&P and Fitch's negative revision to Hungary's
credit rating in January 2023 due to persistently high inflation, economic weakness and external foreign policy pressures, we have decided
to explore the sale of our previously announced 50 MW of projects in Hungary, which we expect to close sometime in the first half. For
our IPP strategy in Europe, including Poland, we will continue to build our planned 50 MW of projects but now anticipate the completion
to be closer to the end of 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· In China, we are aligning our strategy to the rest of the world as "Develop – Build –
Own or Sell", compared to the original strategy of "Develop – Build – Own as IPP". In conjunction, we are
refocusing our efforts to 5 provinces that have the most favorable power prices and regulatory environment. We anticipate selling all
our solar assets outside of these 5 provinces and some in these five focused markets, which will help strengthen our balance sheet. Moreover,
China made some payment of its previous renewable energy subsidies at the end of Q4 2022 and Q1 2023, of which we received approximately
$8 million. This is extremely positive for the sector and increases the value of our China assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Further, we accumulated 1.5 GW of storage pipeline at the end of 2022 and we expect to begin monetizing
in 2023.

We expect 2023 full year revenue to be in the range of $140 million - $160 million. We expect gross margin to be approximately 30% and net income to be between $17 million to $21 million.

For H1 2023, we expect revenue to be in the range of $70 million - $75 million. We expect gross margin to be between 24% to 27%.

In conclusion, the future of solar energy is extremely promising, and we are positioned to fully capitalize on the accelerating adoption of solar technology across the globe. With our exceptional expertise in developing and operating solar projects, extensive network of industry partnerships, and strong financial position, we are making great strides towards our goal of becoming a top global solar company. We are thrilled about the bright future of solar energy and are excited to be at the forefront of this incredible transformation towards a more sustainable future.

With that overview, we will now review the details of our fourth quarter and full year operating and financial performance.

**Mid-to-Late Stage Solar Project Pipeline**

In 2022, we achieved our original 3 GW mid-to-late stage pipeline goal, up from 2.1 GWs at the end of 2021. The significant growth was driven by strong execution and our recent acquisition of Emeren. For 2023, we are targeting 4 GWs by the end of the year with a significant portion of the growth coming from Europe.

**Growing IPP Asset Portfolio in Attractive PPA Regions**

As part of our long-term growth plan, we are also building IPP projects and are looking for M&A opportunities across Europe to take advantage of the higher solar PPA prices and the favorable regulatory environment. We currently own and operate 252 MW of IPP projects, of which ~60 MW is in Europe, ~24 MW in U.S. and ~168 MW in China. In 2022, we added a 50 MW solar farm in Branston, U.K. and also, we completed the construction of 10 MW IPP in Hungary. Looking forward, we have plans to build a total 100 MW IPP assets in Europe by end of 2023.

*As of December 31, 2022*

**Unaudited Q4 2022 Financial Results:**

*All figures refer to the fourth quarter of 2022, unless stated otherwise.*

<u>Revenue</u>

Revenue of $40.8 million increased by 41% sequentially and 79% year-over-year, driven by our consistent growth of project development business in countries such as Poland, Germany, China and the U.S.

<u>Gross Profit and Gross Margin</u>

Gross profit was $11.1 million and gross margin was 27.2%. This was up from $8.5 million in Q3 2022 and $7.2 million in Q4 2021.

<u>Operating Expense</u> 

Operating expenses were $6.2 million, compared to $3.5 million in Q3 2022 and $8.7 million in Q4 2021. Sequentially higher operating expenses were mainly from higher G&A expenses primarily due to acquisition cost of Emeren Italy, changing auditor and others related to rebranding.

<u>Net Income (loss) attributed to Emeren Group Ltd common shareholders</u>

Net income attributed to Emeren Group Ltd common shareholders was $4.8 million, compared to $3.0 million net income in Q3 2022 and $1.6 million net loss attributed to Emeren Group Ltd common shareholders in Q4 2021. Net income per ADS was $0.08, compared to net income per ADS of $0.05 in Q3 2022 and net loss per ADS of $0.02 in Q4 2021.

<u>Cash Flow</u>

Cash used in operating activities was $7.8 million; cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million, and cash used in financing activities was $5.4 million.

<u>Financial Position</u>

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q4 2022 were $107.1 million compared to $123.0 million at the end of Q3 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the Emeren acquisition and construction of our projects in Poland and Hungary.

Our debt-to-asset ratio at the end of Q4 2022 was 11.0% compared to 12.8% at end of Q3 2022.

<u>Shareholder Structure</u>

Following our share repurchase in January 2023, Emeren Group Ltd's primary shareholders are all domiciled outside of China.

![](image_002.jpg)

**Conclusion**

We believe broad social and governmental support for renewable energy will create a robust environment supporting the growth of solar projects, which in turn should drive exciting growth for us in the quarters ahead. Our strategy is sound, and our track record of execution is strong. We have never been more excited about the future.

We would like to thank our employees for their hard work and dedication. We also want to thank our customers, partners and shareholders for your continued support and confidence in Emeren Group Ltd.

Sincerely,

Yumin Liu Ke Chen <br> Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer

Appendix 4

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

To supplement Emeren Group Ltd's financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Emeren Group Ltd provides non-GAAP financial data as supplemental measures of its performance.

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding pro-forma operations, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income/ (loss) attributed to Emeren Group Ltd as non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.

• EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, depreciation and amortization.

• Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus discount of electricity subsidy and associated interest income in China, plus Bad debt provision of receivables from ReneSola Singapore Group, plus gain from OCI, plus share-based compensation, plus impairment of long-lived assets, plus loss/(gain) on disposal of assets, plus foreign exchange loss/(gain).

• Non-GAAP net income/ (loss) attributed to Emeren Group Ltd represents GAAP net income/(loss) attributed to Emeren Group Ltd plus discount of electricity subsidy and associated interest income in China, plus Bad debt provision of receivables from ReneSola Singapore Group, plus gain from OCI, in China, plus share-based compensation, plus impairment of long-lived assets, plus loss/(gain) on disposal of assets, plus foreign exchange loss/(gain).

Our management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income/ (loss) attributed to Emeren Group Ltd as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to access the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time.

We find these measures especially useful when reviewing pro-forma results of operations, which include large non-cash impairment of long-lived assets and loss on disposal of assets. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
