Practices Collection Showcase: Innovative Application of Carbon Label and Carbon Reduction Integrated Supply Chain Management (Vol. 6) Integrate corporation carbon governance for sustainable development: Establishment, innovation and practice of Midea RAC
Lately, the report of Practices Collection-Innovative Application on Carbon Label and Carbon Reduction Integrated Supply Chain Management was jointly released within the collaboration between International Green Purchasing Network (IGPN) and the One Planet Network Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP) Programme, which was produced by IGPN Secretariat-China Environmental United Certification Center (CEC).
The Practices Collection brings together innovative supply chain practices from seven organizations across four countries: China, the United States, Thailand, and the Netherland. By summarizing practical experience and demonstrating phased achievements, the Practices Collection effectively enhances supplier capacity, promotes the adoption of carbon labelling, and stimulates market and supply-side demand for sustainable products and services.
Practice #6｜Integrate corporation carbon governance for sustainable development: Establishment, innovation and practice of Midea RAC carbon footprint management system
Theme: Corporate supplier management; Digitization and carbon label/carbon reduction
Core Content
This practice focuses on the carbon footprint management system establishment of‘Midea RAC’ through measures including standard development, digital platform, information disclosure, and green design. These efforts promote the design of green air-conditioning products and the application of carbon labelling, which accelerates the green and low-carbon transformation of the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) industry.
It is essential to highlight that the practice drives collaborative carbon reduction along the supply chain through a carbon footprint management system. Meanwhile, the corporate carbon footprint management platform enhances international mutual recognition and provides replicable experience for carbon management in the industry.
Innovation in Supply chain Management
This practice demonstrates how can facilitate innovation from aspects of dual-wheel drive mode, end-to-end system platform, green supply chain management in supply chain management:
Dual-wheel drive mode: Systematically elevate carbon management, based on the combination of fundamental capability of standard development and digital platform with the demonstration application of information disclosure and green design;
End-to-end system platform: Build the product carbon platform into a credible platform, achieve the closed-loop management which include platform development, system construction, evaluation and recognition, calculation and application, and carbon footprint certification;
Green supply chain management: Empower and collaborate with small and medium-sized suppliers, build an industry-specific database for raw materials and components, promote green supply chain management measures, and drive carbon reduction throughout the entire value chain.
Tailored to industry features, this practice builds a standardized, digital full-chain carbon footprint management system. By leading the formulation of industry standards and self-developed carbon management platform, It solves typical flaws of conventional carbon accounting: inaccurate calculations and disconnected data. Through supply chain collaboration, green tech innovation and carbon information disclosure, forms a complete carbon management loop featured with a three-component carbon management consisting of standards, digital platforms and real-world applications, delivers coordinated carbon reduction across the whole supply chain, serving as an excellent model for home appliance and manufacturing sectors to manage carbon footprints and build green supply chains.
