GREENER TOGETHER: GREEN ENERGY FOR DECARBONISING PRODUCTION IN CHINA

Introducing the Greener Together: China-Nordic Dialogue on Carbon Neutrality campaign organised by the Danish Chamber of Commerce, the Norwegian Business Association China and FinnCham in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong, and supported by the Danish Chinese Business Forum in Denmark.

Over the recent years, reducing carbon emissions has become the main sustainability issue (both for governments and for companies), globally and in China.

China has set ambitious targets with peak carbon emissions in 2030 and carbon neutrality in 2060

These targets will have large impact on companies, some of these impacts may be:

• New regulations, such as carbon pricing & demands for energy efficiency in new builds.
• Shifting customer demands that focus on global commitments to emission reduction.
• Reporting on supply chain emissions due to EU regulations.
• Potential market opportunities for emission reducing technologies.
• Young talents may increasingly wish to work on sustainability related issues, or within companies with good sustainability profile

In this campaign we are hosting monthly webinars, where we invite expert speakers to provide an overview of relevant policies and initiatives in China and Europe, and industry leaders on implementation in China, providing inspiration and hands-on tools on how to adapt your HQ goals into your Chinese operations, followed by Q&A.
