At the recent EU-China Green Development Forum hosted by EuroCham China, our General Manager for China, Kathy Ren, took the stage to share key strategies in her keynote presentation “Decoding Global #Decarbonization: How Companies Keep Pace with the Green Power Consumption Trend.” She covered: ✔️ Practical ways businesses in China can start using renewable energy. ✔️ The most effective ways to keep up in the fast-changing green energy space. But Kathy didn’t stop there. She joined a thought-provoking panel, where she contributed to the discussion on: ✔️ How Green Electricity Certificates (GECs) are an important tool for companies to decarbonize. ✔️ Ways to bolster the international credibility of China’s local energy certification scheme. These conversations couldn’t be more timely, especially with China’s recent shift from i-RECs to GECs as the national standard for #RenewableEnergy certificates. At ACT Group, we're committed to helping businesses in China make the move to renewable energy —easily and confidently.
