Abstract

In the current global context, what carbon reduction challenges do other nations face, and how are they leveraging digital technologies to facilitate carbon emission mitigation? Under the circumstances where China currently ranks first in the world in terms of total carbon emissions, how can the country, in light of its unique situation, employ digitalization more effectively to aid in realizing efficient carbon reduction measures? Within this framework, starting from the critical and challenging aspects of domestic carbon emissions, this paper contemplates the ways in which contemporary digital tools can be harnessed to implement high-efficiency carbon reduction strategies tailored to the national context. In the acceleration of the development of the digital economy, the role of digital technology in reducing CO2 emissions is becoming increasingly apparent. The traditional energy interconnection network has long been integrated with the traditional energy industry, but how to apply the advantages of network technology to the energy industry, so that energy has new digital characteristics and network thinking has become the energy industry urgently. To this end, this paper mainly focuses on the project research on digital empowerment in the environment of carbon emission reduction, and will mainly consider the key aspects of domestic carbon emission accounting for a large proportion based on the current situation at home and abroad and the research and development status of digital combined carbon emission reduction. In view of these aspects, the feasibility of implementing the digital assistance scheme was discussed, such as focusing on the domestic power system and aiming at the interaction and mutual drive relationship between the power system and the economic and social system; Factory operation planning, transportation industry, with data sharing open system and new format and new model innovation as the guarantee, overall promotion of comprehensive transportation digital transformation and intelligent upgrading; The building materials industry and the discussion of digitalization help build smart parks and improve the level of park informatization. Reduce carbon emissions and create favorable conditions for the subsequent domestic "zero carbon" and "carbon neutral" goals.
