Yokogawa's “Carbon Management Solution” is to achieve the goals of carbon neutral, we will tackle issues and collaborate with our customers to limit GHG emission and shift to inexpensive, reliable, and sustainable energy using our original technology and know-how. Yokogawa contributes to the realization of a new recycling-oriented society that can coexist with the global environment.
Details
What is “Carbon Management”?
Carbon management is that organizations and institutions such as government, local government, and private companies understand the current situation of greenhouse emissions and keep continuous efforts for control and reduction. Especially in the manufacturing industry, it is to visualize the emissions of the entire supply chain from procurement of raw materials to disposal / recycling, and to accomplish overall optimization – carbon neutral through integrated reduction measures beyond individual enterprise.
Co-achieving zero carbon
Yokogawa is a partner who co-achieves your carbon neutral across the supply chain, utilizing the technology and best practice in “Measurement,” “Control”, and “Information.”
- Phase-in plan -
To achieve carbon neutral in 2050, we can conduct well-balanced implementation from both “fundamental reduction measures” and “operational reduction measures” while coordinating supply chain companies.
- Solution portfolio -
The components of a carbon management solution
Benefits of implementation
To achieve carbon neutral, Yokogawa’s carbon management solution offers following practice and contribution.
- Supply chain-wide CO2 reduction based on operational and fundamental solutions
- Smooth for audit process by measurement with a high degree of accuracy
- Operational reduction by visualization using real-time dashboard
- Automated CO2 reduction using predictive and optimal control
- Reduce management costs by cloud-based solution from the head office to the site and supply chain across companies
- Carbon management in SCOPE3 using actual data
- Continuous reduction by premium consulting
- Effective maintenance by 24/7 support
