The service of developing carbon information disclosure and carbon label application cloud system

Absrtact
Under the global trend of carbon reduction, The Environmental Protection Administration of the Republic of China on Taiwan (EPA, ROC(Taiwan)) has operated product carbon label scheme from 2010, and at the same time Taiwan is 11th country to promote carbon label scheme. With calculating the product carbon footprint, EPA, ROC(Taiwan) hopes the companies can increase their ability to calculate and disclose carbon footprint and to find the opportunity of carbon reduction and eco-design. Therefore, EPA, ROC(Taiwan) has promoted product carbon-reduction label from 2014, and at the same time Taiwan is 4th country to promote carbon-reduction label. Along with the development of carbon label scheme, EPA, ROC(Taiwan) has constructed product carbon footprint calculation platform in 2012 and integrated the platform with Taiwanese product of carbon footprint platform in 2020. Afterward, this system is renamed Product Carbon Footprint Information Platform to correspond to the industry’s need. We hope the platform can be the important communication tools for government and industry to achieve carbon reduction targets, to declare its corporate social responsibility and to market green product to the public. This year, we develop the new task based on the basis of “The service of developing carbon information disclosure and carbon label application cloud system(2020)”, the aim of this project is to keep constructing and updating local raw material and energy’s carbon emission factor with Taiwanese companies, to manage and promote the function of Product Carbon Footprint information Platform(including the function of calculation, database, data quality assessment, critical review ,carbon label application and so on).To achieve the aim, there are five points as follows: (1) Counsel the company about calculating and verifying product carbon footprint with using product carbon footprint calculation platform and obtaining carbon label.(2)Follow-up and monitor carbon label product and evaluate whether to modify the carbon label scheme.(3) Construct local raw material and energy’s carbon emission factor and keep managing and promoting product carbon footprint information platform.(4)Hold the campaign to promote carbon label scheme.(5) Hold and attend the 2021 Asia Carbon Footprint Network (ACFN) conference in order to let our carbon label scheme in line with other country and to obtain the latest information from other country.
