Tianjin North network news: after nearly two months of carbon emission verification and calculation, the fourth community center of eco city has obtained the carbon neutralization certificate issued by Tianjin emission right exchange, becoming the first "zero carbon" community commercial project in Tianjin.
"Carbon neutralization" means that enterprises, groups or individuals calculate the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions directly or indirectly generated within a certain period of time to offset their own carbon dioxide emissions through afforestation, energy conservation and emission reduction, so as to achieve "zero emission" of carbon dioxide.
The fourth community center is the first community center in the central area of the eco city. The center integrates community services such as commerce, culture, sports, health and education. In order to better meet the living needs of surrounding residents and highlight the concept of green development of the eco city, the fourth community center always adheres to the low-carbon path from design to construction and then to operation, This has laid a good foundation for obtaining the "carbon neutralization" certificate this time.
It is understood that the fourth community center has widely used building energy-saving technology in the construction process. According to the green building evaluation standard of China Singapore Tianjin eco city, it has reached the silver award level of green building design. The carbon emission generated during the operation of the project is lower than that of other buildings of the same scale. For example, the multi-layer hollow curtain wall material used in the building facade has efficient thermal insulation performance, which can reduce the heating load of air conditioning and effectively reduce carbon emissions. In addition, the center also installed Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) photovoltaic power generation panels in all available spaces on the roof, covering an area of 450 square meters. It is estimated that the annual power generation can reach 84204 kWh and reduce carbon emissions by 75 tons per year.
At present, the fourth community center has been fully completed, and some businesses are preparing for trial operation. It is expected to be put into use in the second half of this year. As the main operator of the commercial part of the fourth community center, eco city urban resources management Co., Ltd. also actively innovates in energy conservation and emission reduction, and explores the carbon neutralization path standard in the operation of commercial projects. According to the relevant person in charge of the urban capital company, after the project is put into use, it will actively guide merchants to establish the awareness of energy conservation and carbon reduction, encourage merchants to develop low-carbon habits such as water saving, power saving and waste classification and recycling, and further promote green production and lifestyle.
Based on the existing energy conservation and emission reduction measures of the fourth community center of eco city, the authoritative third-party verification organization has conducted scientific accounting for the carbon emission of the center, and it is estimated that it will produce 513 tons of carbon emission from December 10, 2021 to December 31, 2022.
In order to achieve the goal of "carbon neutralization", eco city investment and Development Co., Ltd. cancelled 513 tons of national certified voluntary emission reductions (CCER) from the "carbon account" accumulated for many years to offset the carbon emissions of the fourth community center and ensure that the offset is greater than the estimated carbon emissions, so as to achieve pre carbon neutralization.
From the "windmill" of wind power generation standing at Jiyun estuary, to the complementary street lamps with scenery all over the roadside, to the Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) photovoltaic power generation panels arranged neatly on both sides of Central Avenue... Since its development and construction, the eco city has established a comprehensive energy utilization system of Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) , wind energy, geothermal energy and biomass energy, which is saving, intensive, comprehensive Effective practice has been carried out in the recycling development and utilization of urban resources. Many of these renewable energies are important "carbon assets" for the operation and management of eco city investment and Development Co., Ltd. Up to now, the national certified voluntary emission reductions (CCER) accumulated by eco city investment and Development Co., Ltd. has reached 10000 tons.
Li Tian, general manager of Tianjin emission rights exchange, said that eco city has always been the representative of green development. The certification of "carbon neutralization" of the fourth community center is of exemplary significance to community commerce in Tianjin and even the whole country.
Taking the opportunity of the fourth community center obtaining the carbon neutralization certificate, the eco city will continue to make full use of the comprehensive energy utilization system of Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) , wind energy, geothermal energy and biomass energy, deepen the value management of "carbon assets", and accelerate the listing and trading of "carbon assets" according to its own carbon emission demand and relevant policies of carbon market trading.
