Put the carbon argument
into the first approval gate
A fixed-asset investment project carbon-evaluation specialty aligned with NDRC Order No. 31. At initiation: carbon accounting, sector benchmarks, abatement measures and expert review — one with energy-conservation review, in parallel with EIA — so high-emitting projects are identified and constrained at the gate.
Why carbon evaluation became a hard approval gate
NDRC Order No. 31 puts carbon evaluation into the energy-conservation review system — one with energy review, in parallel with EIA
Energy-conservation review and carbon evaluation as one
Project carbon evaluation enters the energy-conservation review system, in force 2025-09-01, run in parallel at initiation.
One entry, two views
Energy review looks at consumption; carbon evaluation looks at emissions and intensity — one review flow, no repeated filing.
Parallel, not a substitute
EIA covers pollutants and ecology; carbon evaluation covers energy-use emissions and approval level — they run in parallel.
Gate high-emitting projects
Projects with carbon intensity above the sector advanced value are deferred or conditionally passed — new emissions controlled at source.
From project overview to approval — one standard flow
Aligned with the energy-conservation review and carbon-evaluation materials chain: accountable, comparable, recorded, reviewable
Project overview
Register type, region, sector, investment, construction and design capacity; cite standards and give the carbon-chapter conclusion.
Carbon accounting
Baseline vs project scenario; energy mix converted to tce; emission-factor and material-balance methods.
Benchmark gap analysis
Project carbon intensity vs sector advanced value; auto pass/fail; editable benchmark conclusion.
Review opinions and abatement measures
Expert opinions and abatement-measure lists in one place; feasibility can be assessed and saved.
Review process
File → submit argument → benchmark → expert review → approve / return — full-process timeline recorded.
Multi-sector coverage — approval gate and abatement together
Pass quantifies abatement; fail defers or returns for rectification — carbon evaluation is a real approval constraint

Sector benchmark library
Maintain advanced carbon-intensity values by sector; auto-compare and auto-judge — approval decisions have evidence.
Materials archived as one chain
Feasibility, carbon chapter, benchmark tables, review opinions and abatement measures archived together — easy to recheck.
Abatement roll-up board
Project abatement by sector, Top abatement ranking — feeds the regional carbon budget and dual control.
Cross-department roles
Every investment project closes its carbon books at the approval gate
Aligned with Order No. 31: carbon evaluation as a digital flow that can be accounted, benchmarked, recorded and reviewed
