Further discussion on the Open Building of Beijing No. 1 Thermal Power Plant at the Environmental, Social, and Governance Levels

In recent years, China has placed significant emphasis on the transformation and redevelopment of old factories. The transformation of Beijing No. 1 Thermal Power Plant, guided by Open Building Theory and ESG Strategy, holds even greater practical significance. This paper attempts to explore sustainable methods of integrating the Open Building Theory and ESG strategies in the renewal process of old industrial plants. The paper proposes the Urban Renewal Topology Strategy of Open Building (O-ESG), and conducts an application design with Beijing No.1 Thermal Power Plant as a test case. The test shows that the O-ESG strategy can be applied in the transformation design of old industrial plants. The paper concludes that ESG may become a breakthrough point for the Open Building Theory, and the O-ESG strategy may become a sustainable method in the renewal process of old industrial plants.
