Release of China’s First “Carbon Emission Accounting Standard for the Organosilicon Industry”

Issuing Organization: China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation (CPCIF)
Release Date: May 20, 2025
Standard Code: T/CPCIF 0258—2025

Core Content of the Standard:

Accounting Boundaries:

Clearly defines the carbon emission accounting scope across the full lifecycle of organosilicon products, including raw material production, energy consumption, process emissions, and waste treatment.
For the first time, includes the carbon reduction effect of replacing fossil-based raw materials with bio-based alternatives in the accounting framework.

Data Requirements:

Enterprises are required to calculate carbon footprints using either the international standard ISO 14064-1 or the national standard GB/T 32150.
Mandatory disclosure of key data such as:
- Comprehensive energy consumption per unit product (kgce/t)
- Carbon emission factor for purchased electricity (tCO₂/MWh)

Reporting & Disclosure:

Starting from 2026, companies must submit their previous year’s carbon footprint report by April 30 each year.
Failure to report on time or falsification of data will result in inclusion on the environmental credit blacklist, affecting bank loans and project approvals.

Certification & Labeling:

A third-party certification mechanism is introduced.
Certified products may bear the “Low-Carbon Organosilicon” label.
Xingfa Group became the first certified enterprise, with its DMC product showing a carbon footprint of 2.1 tCO₂e/t (industry average: 2.5 tCO₂e/t).

Corporate Actions & Market Response:

Xingfa Group Case:

By optimizing its methyl chloride synthesis process and replacing coal power with green electricity, the company reduced its carbon footprint by 18% compared to the industry average.
It received certification from the French Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME), and its product was added to the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) whitelist.

Impact on the Carbon Trading Market:

Organosilicon companies’ carbon quota prices rose to a premium of RMB 15/ton (industry average: RMB 10/ton).
Hoshine Silicon offset part of its environmental investment costs through revenues from carbon trading.

Compliance Pressure on SMEs:

Small and medium-sized enterprises face dual challenges:
- Required investment of RMB 500,000–2,000,000 to establish carbon management systems
- Increased procurement costs due to bio-based raw materials, which carry an approximate 10% price premium.
