928Recently, Deli Group, a globally renowned manufacturer of office supplies and equipment has teamed up with Carbonstop to complete a comprehensive carbon audit of its 12 factories and subsidiaries. This marks the first successful large-scale carbon management practice conducted independently by a company using Carbonstop's self-developed integrated carbon management platform, Carbon Cloud. Not only does this lay a solid foundation for Deli Group to achieve its carbon neutrality goal, but it also establishes a carbon management system tailored to its own development, enabling efficient, low-cost, and scalable carbon management for sustainable development.
As a global cultural and creative technology industry group and advocate and leader in comprehensive solutions for multiple work and learning scenarios, in recent years, Deli has actively responded to the national "dual carbon" strategy, deepened carbon management work, established an ESG management system, formulated key projects related to energy saving and consumption reduction, set up special management teams, provided organizational guarantees for the continuous improvement of ESG, and integrated the concept of sustainability into product development, quality management, and customer service processes. In 2023, the distributed photovoltaic power generation usage of Deli Group exceeded 14,000 megawatt-hours, reducing CO2 emissions by nearly ten thousand tons. Additionally, according to the specific needs of different customer groups, Deli has accelerated the launch of recyclable products and leveraged the "Deli Environmental Protection Season" to encourage consumers to join hands with Deli in building a more sustainable industrial ecosystem, actively fulfilling the responsibilities of a leading enterprise in the industrial chain.
Carbon auditing, as the foundational work for companies to manage carbon emissions and formulate reduction strategies, is crucial for understanding their own carbon emission status and identifying potential areas for reduction. In the past, companies often relied on external consulting firms for carbon data management.
This time, under the professional guidance of Carbonstop, Deli Group introduced the intelligent Carbon Cloud system to achieve independent and efficient management of complex carbon data across its multiple factories and subsidiaries, marking a comprehensive upgrade from dependency to independence. To ensure the accuracy and efficiency of data collection, the Carbon Cloud system designed three key roles—headquarter super administrator, factory manager, and data reporter—and clarified their respective responsibilities and authority. Through task allocation and role-based authority division, each emission source can be assigned to specific individuals for responsibility and reporting without interference.
This not only enhances Deli Group's autonomy in carbon management but also significantly improves the flexibility and timeliness of its management. Previously, carbon emission statistics and analysis were often limited to annual summaries, making it difficult to respond quickly to market changes or internal management needs. Now, with the powerful functions of the Carbon Cloud system, Deli Group has shortened the statistical cycle to quarterly or even shorter, allowing for more timely identification of carbon emission issues and optimization of management strategies, ensuring the company continues to advance on the path of green and low-carbon development.
Furthermore, Deli Group overcame the limitations of manual management in Scope 3 emission statistics. Data disclosed by the company in 2023 shows that the average emissions from the supply chain (Scope 3) are 26 times those of direct operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2). (Source: CDP Global Environmental Information Center / CDP Report Shows: Enterprise Supply Chain Scope 3 Emissions Are 26 Times Higher Than Their Own Operational Emissions) Since Scope 3 emissions typically involve indirect emissions from upstream and downstream supply chains, data collection is often challenging and extensive. However, today, Deli Group has achieved refined management of Scope 3 emissions through the Carbon Cloud system and supporting management systems (including maps, guidelines, and pre-filled forms), ensuring the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the data.
Through the AI tools of Carbon Cloud, companies can also benchmark their carbon data against industry data. Such cross-industry comparative analysis not only improves the quality of Deli Group's carbon management but also provides strong support for setting more scientifically sound and reasonable emission reduction targets.

Industry Benchmarking
The successful collaboration between Deli Group and Carbonstop not only demonstrates Deli Group's firm commitment to achieving its carbon neutrality goals and its efficient execution but also sets a benchmark for other companies in the industry. Relying on the Carbon Cloud system and its accompanying guidelines, Deli Group is gradually building a carbon management system that meets its own development needs and has an international perspective. With the launch of emission reduction target requirements in September, Deli Group will further deepen its carbon management work, specifically allocating emission reduction targets to each factory and subsidiary to ensure that the entire group can collaboratively advance its green and low-carbon transformation.
In the future, Carbonstop will continue to tap into and leverage the technical potential of the Carbon Cloud software, providing more professional, intelligent, and systematic service solutions to ensure that corporate carbon management software can penetrate a wider range of companies, truly realizing its effectiveness. We will continuously promote more companies to master independent carbon management capabilities, encouraging them to participate more proactively in the carbon neutrality movement, ultimately achieving a sustainable path of green and low-carbon transformation for enterprises.
