The Ordos-Envision Net Zero Industrial Park: AIoT-enabled energy and carbon platform

The Ordos-Envision Net Zero Industrial Park is attracting industries (such as EV and batteries manufacturing, renewable energy and hydrogen) to establish a green industrial park powered 80% by green electricity. The cluster uses an AIoT-integrated digital “Ark” platform to optimize energy production, storage and consumption in the cluster, cutting emissions and costs.

 

This AIoT-integrated digital “Ark” platform leverages IoT, AI and strong visualization capabilities:

  • Internet of Things (IoT) data is integrated in real-time for energy-carbon accounting and analysis 
  • AI and Machine Learning optimizes subsystem coupling, renewable redispatch, demand response and electricity trading to cut emissions and support net-zero goals
  • A Visualization and Collaboration Platform aggregates data from electricity, water and gas meters, enabling precise carbon accounting and full-process energy monitoring

 

Thanks to a digitally integrated energy system with 12 large-scale enterprises participating, the cluster:

  • Reduced by 10% energy costs for tenants 
  • Cut CO2 by 100 million tons per year 
  • Increased GDP by 300 billion yuan per year 

Attracted industrial activity, providing tens of thousands of employment opportunities
