The Design and Implementation of an Intelligent Carbon Data Management Platform for Digital Twin Industrial Parks

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In the face of increasing environmental challenges, carbon emissions from industrial parks have become a global focal point, particularly as electricity consumption serves as a major source of carbon emissions that requires effective management. Despite proactive efforts by governments and industry stakeholders to transition industrial parks toward cleaner production methods, traditional energy management systems exhibit significant limitations in data collection, real-time monitoring, and intelligent analysis, making it difficult to meet the urgent demands for carbon reduction. To address these challenges, this study proposes a carbon data management approach for industrial parks based on digital twin technology and develops an intelligent system that integrates monitoring, environmental surveillance, energy management, and carbon emission monitoring. The system supports efficient energy-saving and carbon-reducing decision making by real-time collection of energy consumption data. By incorporating Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, the system facilitates the integration and visualization of multi-source data, significantly enhancing the transparency of carbon data. The results of the carbon reduction validation system demonstrate that the application of this platform and its associated facilities can significantly reduce carbon emissions in the park, providing robust support for the transition of industrial parks toward low-carbon and sustainable development.
