In the post-Copenhagen era, low-carbon and environmental protection have become the term of people's eyes and ears. Countries around the world are actively advocating and advancing new environmental protection, low-carbon green energy lives. China has also set off a low-carbon boom. The Chinese hardware manufacturing industry, which has long been engaged in foreign trade, has to comply with the concept of environmental protection in foreign countries. Therefore, it is particularly important to implement "carbon management."

In fact, the history of Chinese companies' exposure to carbon management is very short. It is about the beginning of operations in the past year or two. According to experts, there are four major industries that urgently need to reduce emissions, namely: energy, real estate, transportation and manufacturing. As the energy industry is a high-energy-consuming industry, the higher authorities will have hard emission reduction requirements and have a clear goal. The real estate industry is driven by the real estate industry’s pursuit of industrial upgrading, and it hopes to implement the concept of green building and improve competitiveness. The transportation industry, such as aviation, is subject to The impact of the EU carbon barriers also has the effect of reducing emissions; while the manufacturing industry mainly refers to foreign trade companies, because of the need to consider the concept of foreign environmental protection, so the pressure of emission reduction is greater, including hardware and toys, such as small and medium-sized manufacturing .

According to senior experts in the field of carbon management, the starting point of carbon management is carbon accounting, which means that it is necessary to find out the bottom of the house. A more accurate analysis and quantification of company carbon emissions is the first step. Second, it is possible to come up with practical measures. solution. The accounting work varies from company to company, some take one to two months and up to ten months.

Due to different companies and different processes, their emission reduction potential is also different and there are usually more than one solution. For example, for iron and steel companies, the source of carbon emissions can be coal, oil, and natural gas. Therefore, the issue of input-output ratio should be considered. For example, investing 100 million yuan in coal energy consumption can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 100,000 tons, and the same amount of money can be invested in natural gas. The emission reduction may be 500,000 tons. Therefore, when carbon management is performed, a variety of models will be set for the company, and according to the financial strength, the right of choice will eventually fall on the company.

However, experts said that although the concept of low-carbon carbon is being overheated, companies are also willing to actively respond to energy-saving emission reductions and hope that their supply chain will be greener. However, the means of realization have been in a state of deficiency. This is because most companies are exposed to carbon management for the first time. Incomplete data is an important issue. For example, it is impossible to determine which carbon is discharged from the production process, or the statistics of coal and other fuel consumption are insufficient, and companies lack talents with carbon management capabilities.

Carbon management is just the beginning for Chinese hardware companies. The road ahead is very long. However, it is undeniable that the implementation of carbon management is also a general trend in the future. It is not only due to the amount of tasks assigned by competent agencies to enterprises, but also that the implementation of reasonable carbon management will increase the energy efficiency of enterprises, and the competitiveness of their overseas markets will be further enhanced.
