[China, Shanghai] On June 28, Huawei Smart Photovoltaics was awarded the Statement of Product Carbon Footprint Verification issued by the British Standards Institution (BSI). This is the world's first carbon footprint certification issued by BSI. Footprint statement.
As the source of international standards, BSI is a special advisor to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the institution that released the world's first carbon footprint standard PAS 2050, with second to none authority. The award of this carbon footprint verification statement is an affirmation of Huawei's ability to assess product life cycle carbon footprint reports, and it is also the result of Huawei's efforts in reducing carbon emissions, increasing the proportion of renewable energy, and promoting circular economy. Huawei's "green, low-carbon, and sustainable" development concept runs through the entire life cycle of inverter products. It has been recognized by the authoritative organization BSI and is of great significance to the establishment and development of the carbon footprint management system of the photovoltaic industry.
With the proposal of the "3060" dual-carbon target, the photovoltaic industry, as the main force of renewable energy, ushered in explosive growth. Although photovoltaic power generation is recognized as an important way to reduce carbon emissions, it does not mean that photovoltaic products are all low-carbon. Achieve zero carbon emissions. Therefore, the carbon footprint is crucial to the decarbonization of the energy system, and it is crucial to understand and manage the carbon footprint and carbon emission impact of the manufacturing process of the various components of the photovoltaic system. In Europe and other countries and regions, carbon footprint is a must for equipment bidding. Only advanced green manufacturing enterprises with carbon footprint certification can truly help customers develop low-carbon and high-quality photovoltaic projects.
Looking into the future, Huawei will continue to strengthen low-carbon capacity building, use innovative technologies to develop more eco-friendly products, accelerate the carbon emission reduction of itself and customers, and work together towards a green and beautiful future by adhering to the goal of sustainable development.
