With the increasingly serious global climate problem, reducing greenhouse gas emissions has become the focus of all walks of life. In this context, how to accurately quantify the GHG emission reduction contribution of products and services to customers has become an important challenge for enterprises. However, at present, there is no unified standard or norm for this issue in the industrial automation industry, which increases the difficulty and uncertainty of disclosing emission reduction data.

E1100 As a leading global intelligent manufacturing overall solution provider in China, Zhongcong Technology has always been committed to helping customers achieve the high-quality development goals of “safety, quality, low carbon and efficiency”. Since 2021, Zhongkong Technology has made exploratory disclosure of the key indicator of “assisting customers to achieve carbon dioxide emission reduction”, hoping to identify, sort out and evaluate the impact of products and services on climate change in various application scenarios and the contribution of greenhouse gas emission reduction to society more accurately by quantifying social emission reduction contributions. At the same time, guide us in the field of clean technology products, services and solutions research and development and innovation, to make a more clear and powerful promotion.

In 2023, through active exploration and practice, on the basis of full reference to relevant domestic and foreign greenhouse gas accounting standards, industry partners related emission reduction accounting methodology and other materials, combined with its own product and service characteristics, the original accounting method has been optimized and adjusted. It has formed a more scientific, systematic and

comprehensive “Quantitative Methodology 1.0 of social emission Reduction contribution of China Control Technology”. The method takes into account not only the carbon emissions during the manufacturing process of the product, but also the carbon emissions that may occur in other stages of the product’s life cycle, which more comprehensively reflects the overall impact of the product on the environment. At the same time, the E1100 central control technology also introduces a more stringent emission reduction scenario analysis in the new accounting method, by comparing with the carbon emissions of different baseline scenarios, the emission reduction effect of different products and services under different use scenarios can be more accurately assessed. In addition, uncertainty analysis assessment and data quality improvement are added to the method, which improves the accuracy and credibility of the data across the board, helping to better understand the emission reduction potential of their products and services in practical applications.

According to the calculation results of the Quantitative Methodology of Social emission Reduction Contribution of CTC Technology 1.0, the projects officially put into operation by CTC technology service customers in 2023 will help customers avoid up to 80.527,800 tons of carbon dioxide emissions during their full life cycle. The quantification method of social emission reduction contribution is not only a phased assessment of the emission reduction benefits generated by enterprises’ own products and services, but also an in-depth insight and guidance for their long-term sustainable development trend.

Looking forward to the future, Zhongkong Technology will continue to be committed to the research and development and innovation of clean technology, constantly create and improve the 5T technical capability base, in-depth exploration of industrial AI technology and application, “increase” industrial energy saving and carbon reduction new technology and solution research and development investment, and help customers and society to achieve green low-carbon transformation with scientific and technological strength. At the same time, we will continue to improve this methodology, hoping to fill the gaps in relevant industry standards to provide a certain reference.
