From November 30 to December 12, the 28th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (hereinafter referred to as COP28) was held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Das Intellitech was invited to Dubai to showcase low-carbon technologies and innovative practices to the world.
01 COP28: "Focus on Action, Enhance Cooperation"
As a responsible major developing country, China considers actively addressing climate change as an inherent requirement for achieving its own sustainable development and has contributed wisdom and strength to global climate governance. During the conference, the Chinese Ministry of Ecology and Environment organized the "China Pavilion" at COP28 to share China's experiences in addressing global climate change, showcase China's capabilities and determination to address climate change to the world, and strive to make more contributions to global climate change efforts.
02 Das Intellitech's Low-Carbon Technologies and Innovative Practices Showcased to the World
During the keynote speech session, Liu Bang, Chairman of Das Intellitech, delivered a wonderful presentation titled "Das Tower - Digital-Driven Practices for Building Decarbonization." Liu Bang first reviewed 13 years ago when Das Intellitech passed the listing review of the China Securities Regulatory Commission on the closing day of the 15th United Nations Climate Conference, becoming the first listed company in China specializing in building electromechanical operation energy saving. With the progress of the United Nations Climate Conference each year, Das Intellitech has also developed into a leading enterprise in intelligent and energy-saving buildings in China.
The Das Tower utilizes digital technology to drive decarbonization operations, using the self-developed AIoT intelligent Internet of Things control platform, connecting 20,000 devices, serving nearly 5,000 mobile applications. At the same time, based on artificial intelligence algorithms, it achieves global optimization and on-demand cooling, and uses the self-developed EMC007 central air conditioning energy-saving control system to achieve refined and energy-saving equipment management. In terms of energy management and conservation, the Das Tower adopts its self-developed EMS energy management system, which pushes rankings of energy consumption per unit area on a weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly basis to enhance the awareness of all staff members. The building also employs a spatial scene control system for convenient operation by all staff members, reducing office energy consumption.
By the end of 2022, Das Intellitech has saved 1.18 billion kWh of electricity for users, reducing approximately 1.176 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions. With its outstanding performance in environmental protection and social responsibility, Das Intellitech was selected as an "excellent case of ESG practice for listed companies in 2023."
03 Das Tower: One of Shenzhen's Top Ten Green and Low-Carbon Cases
As a representative enterprise in the field of energy conservation in Shenzhen, Das Intellitech has been deeply engaged in the fields of intelligent building and building energy conservation for nearly 30 years. Based on the self-developed AIoT intelligent Internet of Things control platform and modular spatial scenario applications, Das Intellitech provides users with lifelong smart space and low-carbon energy-saving services. Das Intellitech's Shenzhen headquarters, the Das Tower, was successfully selected as one of Shenzhen's top ten green and low-carbon cases and was showcased on-site.
Under the premise of significantly improving energy efficiency, the Das Tower has neutralized the carbon emissions unavoidably generated by its operation activities by purchasing voluntary emission reduction credits (CERs) and became the first carbon-neutral building in Shenzhen in 2021, achieving building carbon neutrality for two consecutive years.
It is worth noting that the carbon-neutral practice of the Das Tower is based on the entire building as the verification boundary, rather than based on organizations. Das Intellitech took into account the characteristics of multi-tenant office buildings, actively invited and successfully invited five enterprises to jointly achieve carbon neutrality, fully demonstrating Das Intellitech's confidence and action as a listed company to fulfill its social responsibility.
04 Low-Carbon Action: A Challenge and an Opportunity
In the future, Das Intellitech will fully leverage its advantages as a leading enterprise in the Internet of Things to let energy-saving and carbon reduction technology innovation benefit more places, help China achieve its "dual carbon" goals, and contribute its strength to global climate governance.
