On October 28, the group standard of "carbon footprint quantification methods and requirements for bulk carriers and container ships" drafted by Jiangsu Branch was successfully released by China Shipbuilding Engineering Society. This standard is the last of the five product carbon footprint quantification standards commissioned by the Jiangsu Provincial Market Supervision Administration this year and undertaken by the Jiangsu Branch. This marks that our company has taken the lead in building a complete set in the field of shipbuilding., Scientific product carbon footprint quantification standard system.
The carbon footprint quantification standard for bulk carriers and container ships released this time is led by Jiangsu Branch, and the three companies of China Shipbuilding Group, China Merchants Industry Group, and COSCO Shipping Group respectively represent a number of core shipbuilding companies belonging to the China Shipbuilding "National Team", Leading private shipbuilding forces, as well as many industry scientific research institutions such as Jiangsu Ship Carbon Footprint Research Institute and China Shipbuilding Groups 74th Research Institute. It covers a complete industrial chain from ship design, construction, matching to operation, ensuring that the practical experience and data base of each key link are fully absorbed at the beginning of the formulation of the standard.
The release of the carbon footprint quantification standard for bulk carriers and container ships not only provides a standard basis for the quantification of carbon footprint of ships, but also a microcosm of the forward-looking layout of China Classification Society in the field of carbon footprint of ships. Relying on the profound accumulation in ship design, construction and inspection this year, our agency has actively complied with the global trend of carbon reduction in shipping, and has become a key role in guiding and promoting the shipping and shipbuilding industry to "carbon neutrality.
