2022年以来，我国持续出台政策推动建立统一规范的碳足迹管理体系。《2030年前碳达峰行动方案》明 确提出"建立重点产品全生命周期碳足迹标准"和"推行碳标签制度"。今年初，国家认监委发布《产品碳 足迹标识认证实施通则(试行)》，明确了产品碳足迹认证的基本原则、核算规则、认证流程和标识使用 要求，确保数据质量和结果可比性。同时要求认证机构具备相应资质及技术能力，强化数据审核与标准 的统一。作为现阶段碳足迹认证的核心依据，为各类产品碳足迹认证提出统一规范。 中国电力企业联合会认证中心作为国家认监委公布的首批26家碳足迹标识认证机构之一，严格遵循《通 则》要求，依托"电力行业产品碳足迹与环境产品声明(EPD)平台"，结合电力装备制造与使用特点，制 订了多项产品种类规则(PCR)，统一各类电力装备核算边界、数据采集范围和分配方法。这一做法填补 了行业空白，避免因标准不一造成碳足迹结果扭曲，增强了认证结果的公信力与行业适用性。 此次51项电力装备碳足迹证书的发布，成为电力装备行业加强低碳管理、构建绿色标尺体系的重要开 端。下一步，中国电力企业联合会认证中心将在多个方面持续深化与扩展该项工作。 9月23日，中国电力企业联 ...
