1st International Standardization (Chilin) Forum
International Standardization (Chilin) Forum was held on August 20th in Nanjing, as China called for actions to use international standards to help achieve carbon neutrality goal. This is the first international standardization conference to discuss the role of international standards in carbon neutrality.
The conference under the theme “International standardization to support the achievement of carbon neutrality goal” was jointly organized by the IEC Chinese National Committee and Standardization Administration of China (SAC). The event attracted nearly 500 participants from local government, regulators, standardization agencies, equipment manufacturers, testing laboratories, research institutes and universities worldwide. The conference was opened with speaches by the heads of all the three international standards organizations, i.e. ISO, ITU and IEC, and followed by keynote sessions and panel discussions on how international standards will promote low-carbon industrial development and help achieve the carbon neutrality goal.
The conference also celebrated the establishment of the IEC Promotion Center in Nanjing. The prime function of this center is to further promote the development, use and adoption of IEC International Standards and Conformity Assessment systems in China and encourage more Chinese stakeholders to actively contribute to the IEC community. Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu Province, and is one of the highly-developed cities in China and the second largest commercial community in East China behind Shanghai. Many multi-national corporations have established their Chinese branches in the Nanjing region.
