At present, coping with global climate change has become a major challenge facing human society. In this profound energy transition, the country has a strategy, enterprises have a responsibility, and the academic community has a speculative mind, and all sectors of society are promoting the work of "environment", "society" and "corporate governance" from a multi-dimensional perspective through their own wisdom and strength, and the concept of ESG has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people.
As one of the first countries to sign the Paris Agreement, China has made a strong commitment to tackling climate change. Since 2020, we will vigorously implement the strategies of "carbon neutrality" and "carbon peaking", and strive to achieve the "3060" dual carbon development goals. As a global technology company with operations in more than 100 countries and regions around the world, ABB actively responds to global energy challenges, promotes the green and low-carbon transformation of the industry, and is committed to achieving carbon neutrality in its own operations by 2030, making 80% of its products and solutions recyclable, and systematically reducing waste.
ABB is committed to helping customers reduce carbon emissions, balance social, economic and environmental needs, and write a safe, smart and sustainable future through innovative technologies that combine electrification, automation and digitalization, focusing on clean energy utilization, energy efficiency improvement and optimization, and electrification rate improvement.
From November 29 to December 2, 2022, the ABB Electric Innovation Week with the theme of "Innovation Empowerment and Gathering Momentum" will kick off, showcasing the most cutting-edge technological achievements of ABB Electric in an all-round way through opening forums, keynote speeches, innovative product solution releases and industry forums, and will focus on a series of hot topics such as low-carbon parks, smart power, smart buildings, charging infrastructure, etc., to discuss industry development plans and actively practice corporate social responsibility.
Innovative technology is the key to empowering companies to achieve carbon neutrality, and ABB has launched the "ABB Mission to Zero" project in many locations around the world to accelerate the commitment to reduce carbon emissions in power, industry and infrastructure through ABB Ability digitalization and electrification technology.
At the 2022 ABB Electrical Innovation Week, ABB's first production-oriented enterprise in China, Xiamen ABB Switchgear Co., Ltd., will celebrate its 30th anniversary.
With its strong performance in ESG (Environmental, Social Responsibility and Corporate Governance), ABB has been recognized by a number of global sustainability authorities, including the 2020 Corporate Knights Global 100 Index, the 2020 FTSE4Good Index Series, the 2020 Ethibel Sustainability Index Global and European Best Companies, and the 2021 ISS Environmental, The Social and Governance (ESG) Prime Status rating once again demonstrates the power of a sustainability pioneer to set an example.
