On August 28, 2022 at 24:00, the 5th '828 Low-Carbon Festival' came to a successful close. Within 24 hours, 3000+ green electricity stations nationwide launched the themed campaign 'Use green power, get closer to zero carbon.' During the event, responses nationwide reached over 1 million, more than 600,000 people participated in green electricity consumption, national charging volume exceeded 26 million kWh, cutting carbon emissions by 7,072 tonnes compared with gasoline-powered travel; 18 million kWh of green electricity was consumed, equivalent to reducing carbon emissions by 4,890 tonnes compared with ordinary electricity — another record-setting carbon reduction performance! Numerous ecosystem partners also joined with enthusiasm to jointly promote green, low-carbon concepts. Under the national 'dual carbon' strategy, StarCharge once again delivered a satisfying answer with its strength!
01 3000+ Green Electricity Stations Nationwide, Leading the Low-Carbon Pioneer Path
Today, 'carbon peaking and carbon neutrality' has become a global consensus. As a major manufacturing nation and automotive powerhouse, China shoulders the dual mission of environmental protection and emission reduction together with the green transition of its energy structure. Using green electricity not only solves the problem of 'green electricity consumption' but also offers a solution for achieving a green energy transition: 'Every 1 kWh of green electricity consumed is equivalent to reducing 581g of carbon dioxide emissions'!
During this year's 828 Low-Carbon Festival, StarCharge, through green electricity trading, green power certificate subscription, and other means, joined hands with merchants on the StarCharge platform to launch the 'Use green power, get closer to zero carbon' themed campaign at more than 3,000 stations nationwide. During the campaign, 18 million kWh of green electricity was consumed, equivalent to a reduction of 4,890 tons of carbon emissions compared with conventional electricity.
The campaign also selected four low-carbon pioneer cities—Wuhan, Chengdu, Yancheng, and Changzhou—to build four green electricity demonstration charging stations, using them as model examples to lead the way forward for low-carbon pioneers.
02 Over 1 Million Users Responded, With Online Livestreams Drawing More Than 4 Million Likes
Notably, this campaign was rich in content, adopting online and offline approaches such as illustrated science popularization, video livestreams, in-app green charging low-carbon reports, and check-ins at green electricity stations to attract large numbers of new energy vehicle (NEV) owners to take part, spontaneously join the ranks of environmental protection, choose a green and low-carbon lifestyle, and contribute to achieving the national 'dual carbon' (carbon peaking and carbon neutrality) goals.
During the campaign, more than 1 million people responded. Among the highlights, six high-energy livestreams took Star Friends from the 'fishery-PV complementary' solar power project in Changzhou, the land of fish and rice, to the wind farm in Xilingol League, Inner Mongolia. Through the livestream cameras, we brought Star Friends to the very sites where 'green electricity' originates, enjoying the natural scenery while experiencing the power of 'light' and 'wind.' The livestreams received more than 4 million likes in total, far exceeding expectations.
Many Star Friends also obtained multiple high-value charging coupons and rich ecosystem membership benefits through activities such as 'Shake' on the StarCharge app, and some lucky Star Friends even won grand prizes such as smartphones. Many commented: 'This kind of event is truly meaningful!'
This achievement would not have been possible without everyone in front of the screen who loves environmental protection and has chosen a low-carbon lifestyle! 'Use green power, get closer to zero carbon' is not just a slogan or a call to action—it is a series of concrete activities, and more importantly, StarCharge's long-standing exploration and practice of the philosophy of low-carbon emission reduction. The annual '828' festival will always come to an end, but StarCharge's commitment to green environmental protection and its original aspiration will never change!
