opportunities in the low carbon market and help the industry achieve leapfrog development.”

“In the context of green and sustainable development, more and more enterprises have developed long-term, phased, measurable and clear goals for sustainable development strategies.” Wei Binsheng, general manager of DEKRA Certification and business Assurance in China, said, “This time DEKRA DEkai and Siemens join hands to create a digital and low-carbon ecology, to help enterprises reduce environmental risks and resource consumption at the same time, enhance the competitiveness of low-carbon products, shape the corporate social image, and effectively integrate the upstream and downstream industries into the carbon reduction path. Guide green production and low-carbon transformation, and help the sustainable development of the whole society.”

According to the agreement, the two sides will jointly create smart energy management and certification solutions covering the source, network and load energy chain under the framework of Siemens Xcelerator ecological cooperation. For example, the two parties will conduct integrated energy management and carbon management based on the Siemens Smart ECX Smart energy carbon management platform on the Siemens Xcelerator, and jointly create online energy audit and carbon verification modules. At the same time, the two sides will jointly expand energy carbon management projects in the fields of buildings, parks and industries, carry out energy conservation analysis, carbon management, green building and park assessment, energy conservation transformation, and jointly build zero-carbon demonstration projects.

As a world-renowned third-party professional technology service provider, DEKRA has always practiced the road of safety and sustainable development, assisted Chinese enterprises and multinational supply chain enterprises to carry out low-carbon transformation, and promoted the process of global low-carbon environmental protection and energy conservation.
