"Carbon peaking" means that carbon dioxide emissions will fluctuate within a certain range for a period of time after reaching a historical peak, and then usher in an inflection point and enter a channel of steady decline.


"Carbon neutrality" means that enterprises, groups and individuals in society can offset their own direct or indirect carbon dioxide emissions within a certain period of time through certain means, such as energy conservation and emission reduction, promotion of the use of green and clean energy, and afforestation. to achieve the goal of "net-zero emissions".


The terms carbon peaking and carbon neutrality have been mentioned many times in China in the past two years and are regarded as the country's longterm strategy.

In the next 30 years, the country will adopt more powerful policies and measures to promote this goal. In this context, epaper solutions with green and lowcarbon characteristics can assist practitioners in various application scenarios to promote digital transformation, while reducing electricity consumption and carbon emissions, accelerating the achievement of the global sustainable goal of zero carbon emissions .

Bellow, I will explain in detail with 8 examples according to different terminal products and application scenarios. I hope that I will give you a good idea, so that you can combine your own advantages and stimulate more thinking.

1. E-paper book - can read and write, reduce paper waste

The current e-paper book products are slightly larger in size, such as epaper book tablet products from brands such as Ireader, IFLYTEK, Sony, and Boox, which can not only read, but also write. In terms of reading, thousands of books are hidden in one, and the reading experience can be opened anytime, anywhere. In terms of writing, the meeting records are stored in the cloud and can be viewed at any time. Not only the text but also the meeting voice can be stored, which greatly reduces the waste of paper.

2. E-paper conference table card - avoid repeated printing, low carbon

For traditional conference table cards, each time the guests and participants are different, the executives have tomake and print paper, and then cut them separately and put them in the acrylic shell. There will be waste of manpower and paper. If you use LCD diaplay as a conference table card screen, it will not only consume power, but also dazzling. Eink conference   table cards solve all the above   problems and are increasingly becoming   the best choice for   conference occasions and large corporate conference rooms.


3. E- paper price tag - paper saving, smart refresh

It is needless to say about this product, look at Walmart, Sam's, Yonghui, Costco,and imported supermarkets,   even fruit stores, you can see the e-paper price tag. Its paper-saving and easy to update   features   make   the   global demand for such products continue to heat up.

4. E-paper screen bus stop sign - solar powered, visible in sunlight

If the traditional bus stop sign wants to be upgraded intelligently, it must need screen information to display the bus line and arrival information. If the LCD   screen displaying continuously, it will not only consume a surprising amount of power, but also require complex power line reconstruction (in China, the Electric Power Bureau and the Transportation Bureau are two separate systems, and the communication cost is huge), the use of e-ink display with low power consumption and new energy, low-carbon and environmental   protection from   solar   energy has become the first choice for bus stop signs in more and more large cities.

5. E-paper subway pull ring - save paper and protect eyesight

We travel on the subway every day, and we have seen the pull-tabs in the subway.   We can occasionally   see   paper advertisements in the pull rings, but we rarely see such advertisements   being replaced   frequently.   This is because the cost of replacing advertisements is very high. Not only does the paper used for advertising need to be carefully produced, but it also takes time and effort to replace it every time. Using the e-ink screen   subway pull ring (if the LCD screen is used, the power consumption is very large and cannot be ultra-thin),   it canve the cost of paper and the inconvenience of frequent replacement, and can update the advertisement according to these location of the station, or according to the specified time. This can not only bring convenience, but also create more advertising profits. In the near future, I believe that more and more e-paper subway   pull   rings will be used there.

6. E-paper badge/name badge/student card - smart, strong battery life

The demand for such products is lightness, strong battery life and eye protection, and the e-ink screen   is an excellent choice for such products. Employee badges for the Winter Olympics, badges used in companies   to replace traditional plastic cards, and student cards used in schools to locate/check-ins, and even answer   questions are representative scenarios for such products.


7. E-paper information display board - high quality advertising, no need to be dynamic

I'm used to watching dazzling outdoor display screens, and I'm used to watching noisy advertising videos in elevators. Your ads may need a different approach to catch peoples eyes. The information display board of the e-ink screen, whether it is used as a navigation board in the park or parking lot, or as a product display screen in Starbucks and Heytea stores, will catch peoples eyeballs. Sometimes, stillness is movement, and stillness is   more powerful than movement.

8. E-paper digital currency bank card - lighter, thinner

At present, the country is vigorously promoting the digital RMB bank card. This kind of bank card also needs a display screen to display the balance and other information. However, the ultra-thin characteristics   of this kind   of cards make it impossible to install the battery in these circumstances.   There are not display   product can do   this job. Lighter, thinner and passive e-paper display make the digital RMB bank card more user-friendly   in   addition to being safe and reliable.

Above all, I hope to give you some reference and inspiration. If you are interested in various e-paper solution   products, please contact Shanghai OKRA Technology Co., Ltd. We will work with colleagues in thIS industry to   promote the implementation and innovation of e-paper solutions, and contribute to the national plan.
