Industrial Enterprises Under “Carbon Neutrality”


Earth keeps breathing all the time.


Before the mid-18th century, the Earth's carbon cycle was probably in equilibrium: the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by plants and the like was roughly equal to the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere globally.


With the continuous development of human society and economy, human beings burn more fossil fuels such as oil and coal. And this results in more carbon emitted, and Earth's carbon cycle is out of balance.

Does this situation have any effect on human beings?


Of course there is.

Excessive carbon emissions are causing the Earth's surface temperature to rise. In recent years, the frequent occurrence of natural disasters such as abnormally high temperature, drought, sea level rise and hurricanes are all climate changes caused by excessive carbon emissions.

Therefore, the path to "carbon neutrality" is a common path for global economies.


What is "carbon neutrality"?


It refers to the process of offsetting the carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas emissions generated by human production and living behaviors through the development and utilization of new energy, energy conservation and emission reduction, and afforestation, so as to achieve positive and negative offset and achieve relatively "zero emissions". Simply put, it means that each object (which can be the world, a country, an enterprise, or even a product, etc.) will "emit carbon" and "absorb carbon" in the future for a period of time.


What can industrial enterprises do to become "carbon neutral"?


Industrial enterprises emit significant amounts of greenhouse gases in the manufacture of products, the supply of raw materials (selection, transportation and storage), and the processing and use of finished goods they sell. Industrial enterprises need to recognize that practical steps should be taken to improve climate sustainability and pay attention to every action taken to tackle carbon emissions.


Actions that can be taken are:


1. Intelligent green manufacturing can reduce consumption and improve efficiency


• Promote new industrial technologies to reduce direct emissions

• Realize the digitization and intelligence of industrial production

• Enhanced energy monitoring and energy management

• Integrate value chain resources and promote waste conversion and utilization


2. Use green logistics for transportation


• New energy logistics and transportation using electricity and fuel cells to replace fossil fuels, such as electrified railway transportation, hydrogen energy freight, etc.


3. Adopt renewable energy


• Industrial enterprises can take a variety of initiatives to promote renewable energy adoption, such as purchasing green electricity through power purchase agreements and renewable energy certificates. Or companies can invest in building their own renewable energy systems, such as photovoltaic systems, energy storage systems, etc.
