On March 20, 2025, the High-Tech District Power Supply Center of State Grid Suizhou Power Company conducted a comprehensive power usage diagnosis at Qingdao Brewery (Suizhou) Co., Ltd., focusing on the brewery's power distribution systems and photovoltaic equipment. This diagnosis aimed to address fluctuations in the brewery’s power load and offered tailored recommendations for energy storage solutions, thereby enhancing energy efficiency and ensuring the brewery's environmentally sustainable and safe operations.
In February 2025, Qingdao Brewery (Suizhou) Co., Ltd. successfully obtained third-party certification for carbon neutrality, establishing itself as Suizhou's first “carbon-neutral factory.” This achievement was made possible through the adoption of several innovative measures, including the integration of rooftop solar power, green power, and green certificate trading, as well as the implementation of biomass-to-steam conversion and the use of new energy forklifts. The brewery’s 1.58 MW rooftop solar installation generates over 1.8 million kWh annually, and combined with green power and green certificate transactions, it achieves 100% clean energy for its production processes, marking a significant milestone in its transition to a zero-carbon footprint.
To support Qingdao Brewery (Suizhou) in becoming a carbon-neutral factory, the High-Tech District Power Supply Center proactively expedited the connection of solar power projects to the grid. The center implemented a streamlined process for project approval, providing personalized on-site support to address both procedural and technical challenges. The solar grid integration was successfully completed within five days. Furthermore, the center facilitated the expansion of green power trading channels, offering the brewery a one-stop service for green power and green certificate transactions. In addition, the company introduced precise energy efficiency management practices, actively helping the brewery reduce energy costs through customized monthly energy analyses and diagnostic reports. These measures enabled the brewery to optimize production schedules and reduce energy costs.
