Exhibit 99.1

Nov. 14, 2024

Fellow Shareholders,

In Q3 2024, our company executed on its bottom-line focus, achieving solid profitability despite softer-than-anticipated revenue resulting from delays in closing scheduled project sales. With $12.9 million in revenue, we achieved a gross profit of approximately $5.6 million (yielding a solid gross margin of 43.8%), $2.1 million in operating profit and $4.8 million in net income ¹. Strong EBITDA of $8.5 million further reflects our commitment to sustainable profitability and core business resilience.

Net income¹ was supported by a foreign exchange gain exceeding $4.6 million as the Euro strengthened during the quarter, offsetting a similar f/x loss earlier in the year. With Europe generating a majority of our revenue in Q3, we benefited from a strong Euro.

Our focus on high-margin growth remains robust. The Independent Power Producer (IPP) segment generated $9.4 million, driven by seasonal strength in European assets. Our Development Service Agreement (DSA) model also expanded in key markets, adding $1.3 million from Italy, $1 million from France, and $0.9 million from our first Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project portfolio in the U.S.

Revenue was lower than anticipated due to timing issue, particularly delays in government approvals for three projects in Europe. These remain in our pipeline and are expected to contribute to revenue once approvals are secured.

Business Line Overview

DSA

In Q3, we executed a 394 MW BESS DSA with PLT energia Srl and completed the sale of 57 MW solar projects to Trina through a mixed DSA/SPA structure. Our DSA approach is a game-changing, reliable, and scalable business model that enables us to monetize projects at early to mid-stages while securing high-quality contracted revenue. This strategic model delivers unique benefits, including positive cash flow and effective risk mitigation throughout the project lifecycle. Building on this momentum, we also signed our first DSA contract in the U.S. for a 72 MW BESS project portfolio in California.

As of September 30, we have secured DSA contracts with nine partners, including Glennmont Partners, Matrix Renewables, and PLT Energia Srl, covering 28 projects totaling over 2.1 GW (84% BESS and 16% PV), with expected contracted revenue exceeding $69 million to be monetized within the next 2-3 years. Additionally, over 2.0 GW of DSAs are under negotiation, estimated to bring $100 million in revenue. This robust DSA pipeline, encompassing both contracted projects and potential agreements and with nearly 90% based in Europe, underlines our strength in markets that favor renewable energy, driving our financial stability and growth.

In November, we announced a DSA with Arpinge for a 300 MW BESS portfolio in Southern Italy. This partnership, our fourth with an Italian ESG-focused leader, strengthens our position in Italy’s BESS market, where we have approximately 2 GW in the permitting pipeline. The collaboration supports Italy's clean energy transition goals and aligns with our focus on high-value growth opportunities in battery storage.

Solar Power Project Development

In Q3, we successfully closed the sales of a solar project portfolio of 42 MWp in Spain to CVE España. Developed over the past few years, this portfolio is projected to generate approximately 92.8 GWh solar power annually, offsetting nearly 20,000 tons of CO₂ emissions each year. Additionally, we sold a 57 MWp solar project portfolio to Trina Solar, showcasing the strength of our European development efforts.

Due to project delays, the sales of a U.S. community solar project portfolio and some projects in Spain and Italy did not close by the end of Q3. For example, certain closings with CVE in Spain were delayed due to lengthy local administrative approvals. Some of these delayed project sales are expected to close in Q4.

IPP

Throughout the third quarter, our IPP assets demonstrated robust growth and profitability, contributing approximately 73.2% of our total revenue for the period. We continued to optimize operations across our solar farms, including Branston, reinforcing the IPP segment as a cornerstone of our business model that offers dependable, stable and predictable cash flow.

In September, we energized a 4.5 MW solar power plant at Luxshare iTech, a major facility of Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd. (SHE: 002475) and a prominent Apple supplier active in Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to environmental responsibility and Emeren’s expanding renewable energy presence. In Q3 2024, we connected 7.2 MW of solar projects across China, while our 35 MWh battery storage portfolio was fully integrated into Huaneng Power International’s Virtual Power Plant (VPP) platform.

In consideration of our strategy to grow IPP assets, we decided to retain a 52.4 MW project portfolio in Hungary, previously planned for sale, as an IPP asset. 30 MW of the portfolio is in operation and the remaining portfolio will be energized by the end of this year. This decision is supported by the project’s strong returns, Hungary's favorable economic outlook projected to lead EU growth by 2025², and recent foreign investments bolstering local stability. Hungary’s reinforced commitment to renewable energy, seen through ambitious solar capacity goals and a revised National Energy and Climate Plan³, further enhances the value of this asset as an IPP. This tactical shift, though impacting full year revenue, aligns with our long-term growth and value creation objectives as we continue to assess favorable market conditions. Furthermore, with supportive local policies in Hungary’s energy storage market, we see expanding opportunities in the country, and battery storage facilities are now planned for several projects within this portfolio.

Outlook

As we approach the close of 2024 and look to 2025 and beyond, we are strengthening our presence in some of the world’s fastest-growing solar and battery storage markets, which are supported by increasing demand for clean energy, favorable government policies, and advancing technologies. Our primary objectives remain clear: advancing early-stage projects, expanding our DSA partnerships across Europe and the U.S., and refining our strategies to unlock the full potential of our development pipeline. While certain project sales in Europe may extend into 2025 due to delays in government approvals, our core business lines remain robust, and we are confident in our ability to deliver substantial growth in the fourth quarter, driven by a strong pipeline and favorable market conditions.

³ https://xpatloop.com/channels/2024/10/hungarys-solar-power-capacity-3rd-biggest-in-world-last-year.html

For Q4, we anticipate revenue between $40 and $45 million, with a projected gross margin of 20% to 25%. In line with the strategic move from sales to IPP for the 52.4 MW Hungarian projects and the revised timing of some project sales, we have adjusted our full-year revenue guidance to a range of $97 to $102 million, with an expected gross margin of approximately 30%. We expect to achieve EBITDA of $15 million to $20 million in 2024.

Our IPP and DSA segments are demonstrating solid progress. For 2024, we reiterate our expectation for IPP revenue to be between $24 million and $26 million with gross margin of around 50%. We expect our DSA to contribute more than $20 million in revenue during 2024. By maintaining a disciplined approach to cost efficiency and operational excellence, we remain focused on advancing our renewable energy initiatives and capturing new opportunities for sustainable value creation. In 2025, EBITDA contributions from IPP and DSA segments are expected to exceed $50 million.

Q3 2024 Financial Results:

All figures refer to the third quarter of 2024, unless stated otherwise.

Revenue

In Q3 2024, revenue totaled $12.9 million, coming in below expectations due to delayed project closings pending government approvals. Nevertheless, revenue was bolstered by strong performance in our high-margin IPP segment and expanding DSA activities across Europe and the U.S. With a robust pipeline, we are well-positioned for growth as these delayed projects are sold.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit was $5.6 million, compared to $9.4 million in Q2 2024 and $5.7 million in Q3 2023. Gross margin was 43.8%, compared to 31.2% in Q2 2024 and 40.8% in Q3 2023. The year-over-year increase was due to the favorable margin within the revenue from DSA and IPP projects.

Operating Expense

Operating expenses were $3.5 million, down from $6.4 million in Q2 2024 and $9.6 million in Q3 2023. The decrease was mainly due to lower G&A expenses thanks to our continued cost optimization program.

Net income attributable to Emeren Group Ltd’s common shareholders

Net income attributable to Emeren Group Ltd’s common shareholders was $4.8 million, a significant rebound from a net income of $0.4 million in Q2 2024, as well as a net loss of $9.4 million in Q3 2023.

Diluted net income attributable to Emeren Group Ltd’s common shareholders per American Depositary Share (“ADS”) was $0.09, compared to diluted net income of $0.01 in Q2 2024 and diluted net loss of $0.17 in Q3 2023.

Cash Flow

Cash used in operating activities was $5.6 million; cash used in investing activities was $4.2 million, and cash used in financing activities was $2.0 million.

Financial Position

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q3 2024 were $35.8 million compared to $50.8 million in Q2 2024.

Net asset value (NAV) is approximately $6.2 per ADS.

Our debt-to-asset ratio at the end of Q3 2024 was 10.18%, compared to 10.22% at the end of Q2 2024.

Conclusion

The solar industry is experiencing strong momentum due to the global commitment to renewable energy. This shift toward cleaner energy sources positions solar and battery storage as a key part of the future energy mix. The growing demand for solar power to support AI and blockchain operations is particularly exciting, as these technologies require substantial energy, and solar offers a scalable, cost-effective solution.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Emeren Group Ltd’s financial statements presented on a US 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 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 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 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.
