About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

In 2019, Hanwha Solutions overhauled its Chemical Division plant in Yeosu, South Korea, replacing older equipment with high energy-efficiency models. This project directly reduces Scope 1 and 2 emissions from the company's own petrochemical operations through process improvements and operational optimizations. Evidence: "the overhaul of the Chemical Division plant in Yeosu, Korea in 2019, replacing older equipment with high energy-efficiency models, and saving up to 30,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions per year" — https://www.hanwhasolutions.com/static/ko/data/Hanwha_Solutions_Green_Financing_Framework_Updated_2023.pdf
