Envision Digital International PTE Ltd (Envision Digital) and Bureau Veritas have announced a partnership to develop Net Zero innovations for greenhouse gas emissions reduction and renewable energy production. The two companies aim to provide standardized, certifiable and verifiable processes to organizations that are committed to Net Zero. Envision Digital is a technology leader in AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) and Bureau Veritas is a global leader in testing, inspection and certification.
The Net Zero goal
In 2018, the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) recommended a Net Zero target for stopping CO2 emissions by 2050. Net Zero means no netCO2 emissions, emissions can only continue if they are balanced by absorbing an equivalent amount ofCO2 from the atmosphere for example through reforestation or its capture.
This negligible carbon footprint target recommended by the IPCC for 2050 should stabilize global warming at 1.5°C and will only be possible by reducing globalCO2 emissions from the current 40 Gigatons per year to 0 Gigatons. To achieve this goal, all sectors of activity (energy production, industry, transport, housing, etc.) producingCO2 must be decarbonised.
The production of renewable energies is not continuous, it depends on the wind and the sun. We will only be able to do without fossil, nuclear or hydraulic energies when the storage of renewable energies is optimal. The organizations that have opted for the Net Zero objective must address this problem.
A strategic partnership
Envision Digital and Bureau Veritas said they want to develop innovative solutions to meet their Net Zero commitment. Bureau Veritas draws on its experience in inspection, certification and laboratory testing. The company enables its clients to improve their performance through innovative services and solutions to ensure that their assets, products, infrastructure and processes meet standards and regulations related to quality, health, safety, environmental protection and social responsibility.
Envision Digital’s Object Artificial Intelligence technology, combined with Bureau Veritas’ expertise in sustainability certification and auditing processes, will enable organizations to better align with internationally recognized carbon neutrality standards. Lei Zhang, founder and CEO of Envision Group said:
:
“Through this strategic partnership with Bureau Veritas, our best practice digital solutions will help more businesses around the world accelerate their transition to Net Zero.”
Didier Michaud-Daniel, CEO of Bureau Veritas, added:
“Our role as an independent third party is essential in building trust between business stakeholders. Through our Green Line BV of services and solutions, we help our 400,000 clients to be more efficient, methodical and credible in their journey towards a more sustainable business and world. Together with Envision Digital, we will provide comprehensive solutions that combine our respective strengths and focus on achieving our customers’ Net Zero goals.
