● ABB is an ideal partner for China’s sustainable development. It supports China’s green and high-quality development with its actions
● Reduce carbon emissions through energy conservation and efficiency, improve the proportion of new energy use, and achieve a year-on-year reduction of 19% of the total energy consumption of ten thousand yuan of output value
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently released its 2022 Green Manufacturing list, and Xiamen ABB Low-voltage Electrical Equipment Co LTD has been awarded the title of “National Green Factory”.
ABB has been actively responding to global energy challenges, using technology to empower customers and partners in the industry, actively promoting the green and low-carbon transformation of the industry, and committed to achieving carbon neutrality in its own operations by 2030. In response to ABB’s sustainable development strategy to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction, Xiamen ABB Low-voltage Electrical Equipment Co., Ltd. established an energy management system and obtained ISO50001 energy management system certification in February 2021.
The 14th Five-Year Plan for Green Industrial Development proposes to comprehensively improve the level of green manufacturing and help industrial sectors achieve the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality. Green factory is the core support of green manufacturing system, specifically referring to the realization of land intensive, clean production, waste resources, energy low-carbon factories, its assessment requirements are strict, involving a wide range of. According to the national standard “Green Factory Evaluation General Rules” (GB/T 36132-2018), Xiamen ABB low-voltage Electrical Equipment Co., Ltd. carried out self-evaluation work in accordance with the requirements of six evaluation indicators: infrastructure, management system, energy and resource input, products, environmental emissions, and performance, and cooperated with the evaluation institutions to successfully complete the third-party evaluation work.
The company completed the greenhouse gas emission inventory project and obtained the carbon verification certificate in March 2022, completed the carbon footprint accounting report of some circuit breakers, and built a distributed photovoltaic power station on the roof of the plant in September 2022, which further optimized the energy structure of the plant and improved the utilization of clean energy.
At the same time, the company actively excavates energy saving and low-carbon improvement space and implements corresponding improvement projects, such as: diesel forklift to electric forklift, production workshop air conditioning unit outside moved to the outdoor, production workshop lighting transformation, product application for environmental mark certification, park air compressor station grid-connected transformation, etc., achieving a year-on-year reduction of 19% in the comprehensive energy consumption per 10,000 yuan of output value.
Jin Jun, general manager of Xiamen ABB Low-Voltage Electrical Equipment Co., LTD., said that the title of “National Green Factory” cannot be achieved without the guidance and support of local governments at all levels, which also laid a solid foundation for the company’s sustainable development and carbon neutral operations. Next, the company will continue to further reduce carbon emissions through energy conservation and efficiency, increase the proportion of new energy use and other ways, and explore and practice the path of carbon neutrality with innovative technologies.
