GHG management

Introduction
  • Carbon emission refers to the release of carbon dioxide (CO₂) into the atmosphere, primarily from human activities. These emissions are closely tied to the use of fossil fuels like coal, gasoline, diesel, and natural gas. Everyday activities such as transportation, industrial production, and building operations would also generate significant carbon footprints.
    Globally, the energy, industrial, transport and construction sectors are responsible for the vast majority of greenhouse gas emission, exceeding 90% in national inventories in most cases. Hence decarbonization remains the major target for most high-emission industries producing steel, cement, petrochemicals, etc.

Methods to deal with carbon emission
  • To address climate change caused by greenhouse gases, industries need to improve carbon management systems. One advanced solution is to use the carbon measurement software, which can effectively monitor carbon emissions in real-time. Through using technologies like IoT, edge computing and blockchain, this system supports data collection, calculation, visualization, and certification in multiple environments, from factories to public buildings and industrial parks.

Intelligent Carbon Measurement Software
  • —Multi-source data collection with standard protocol parsing for accuracy
    —Multi-scenario accessibility via local screens, browsers, and cloud platforms
    —Standardized carbon accounting, aligned with ISO 14064, PAS 2050, etc.
    —Dynamic analysis to identify energy usage trends and emission hotspots
    —Custom carbon services to support businesses in green transitions

Conclusion
  • By investing in real-time and full-cycle carbon measurement, companies can improve operational efficiency, meet regulatory requirements, hence accelerate their transition to a more sustainable and low-carbon future.
