Shanghai Electric: Revolutionary technologies for a green future!

Shanghai, China - On June 10, 2025, Shanghai Electric presented innovative green and intelligent technologies to significantly reduce carbon emissions worldwide on the Carbon Neutrality Expo. The company announced that it would like to achieve a certified reduction in carbon emissions around 202,647.002 tons until 2024, which of TI Testing & Certification Group according to the ISO 14064-3: 2019 was confirmed.

The Expo, which took place from June 5th to 7th, included an exhibition area of 720 square meters and extensively addressed the industrial value chain on the subject of carbon neutrality. The focus was on technologies to support the energy transition, including highly efficient gas turbines, photovoltaic power generation and hydrogen applications. A central element was the zero-carbon hub, which demonstrated environmentally friendly and intelligent technologies, as well as interactive installations and digital twin simulations that offered insight into the low-carbon ecosystem of Shanghai Electric, such as [OTS] (https://www.ots.at/presseaus-sung/ots_20250610_OS0001/shanghai-electric-pra and- der-carbon-neutrality-Expo-2025-inovative-gruene-and-intelligent-technologies-and-accelerate-damit-de) reported.

initiatives for carbon reduction

In addition, Shanghai Electric has published a platform for recording carbon emissions for partners in the supply chain. The accounting platform enables suppliers to precisely calculate their carbon emissions and effectively fix problems such as unclear emission data. The company also starts an initiative for an environmentally friendly and carbon -friendly supply chain, into which eleven core suppliers and six leading supply chain companies are integrated.

In the context of international efforts to neutrality of carbon, the International Standard Organization (ISO) published the new standard ISO 14068-1 . This standard is aimed at organizations that want to strive for greenhouse gas neutrality. This new standard, which is part of the ISO 14060 family, offers a comprehensive framework for achieving carbon neutrality, including clear definitions, principles and requirements.

challenges of the new standard

The ISO 14068-1 also has essential weaknesses. Critics indicate the admission of greenhouse gas neutrality despite high fossil CO2 emissions, lack of environmental integrity of greenhouse gas withdrawals and an incomplete exclusion of double counts. Companies that want to promote greenhouse gas neutrality must go beyond the requirements of the norm and reduce their emissions in harmony with international climate goals, such as the Environmental Office in a factsheet.

The upcoming EU guidelines for strengthening consumers and the concretization of environmental statements could help to manage the challenges in the field of carbon neutrality. At the same time, it is crucial that companies transparently implement their carbon credits and programs in order to counteract greenwashing and to ensure the integrity of carbon neutrality statements.

Overall, the development at Shanghai Electric and the new ISO standard shows that both technologies and standards are necessary to efficiently counter the global challenges of climate neutrality.
