Cotecna Appointed Vice Chair of Newly Launched Special Committee on Green Manufacturing and Energy-Carbon Digital Integration

The launch event brought together representatives from the Shanghai Energy Conservation Center, TIC companies, and technology services providers – key stakeholders in driving the green, low-carbon, and digital transformation of the manufacturing sector. Cotecna’s appointment reflects its recognized contribution in sustainability compliance and positions the company to help shape cross-industry collaboration and strategic alignment. 

The Committee aims to accelerate the development of Shanghai’s green manufacturing ecosystem by integrating artificial intelligence and bridging “green manufacturing” with “energy-carbon digital technologies”. It will establish an integrated service model that links standards, data, intelligence, engineering, and finance, enabling local enterprises to enhance competitiveness in global green supply chains and meet evolving regulatory demands, including the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). 

As global manufacturing faces mounting pressure to decarbonize and digitize, exporters must navigate increasingly complex compliance landscapes. As a leading TIC provider, Cotecna offers deep technical expertise in international standards, carbon footprint verification, ESG compliance, green factory certification, sustainable supply chain audits, and international market access, backed by its global experience and a track record of delivering solutions across diverse markets.

In its Vice Chair role, Cotecna will actively contribute to the Committee’s strategic initiatives, providing actionable insights and practical solutions to help manufacturers tackle challenges in energy efficiency, emissions reduction, digital transformation, and more. By working closely with public and private partners, Cotecna will support the development of a resilient, transparent, and innovation-led green-digital ecosystem. 

This partnership underscores Cotecna’s role in advancing high-quality, low-carbon industrial development in Shanghai and beyond, and in equipping Chinese manufacturers with the capabilities they need to meeting compliance requirements confidently and succeed in a rapidly evolving global sustainability landscape.
