Abstract

This article examines the methods used to calculate direct carbon emissions from energy consumption, fugitive carbon emissions from manufacturing processes, and fugitive carbon emissions from exhaust gas treatment. It also establishes carbon emission boundaries and focuses on the process of producing and manufacturing automobiles. This method is used to calculate carbon emissions based on the real state of enterprises. According to the research, energy consumption during the production and manufacturing of automobiles results in the largest direct carbon emissions, with electricity consumption making up roughly 75% of energy consumption; The production operation area is the one with the largest percentage of carbon emissions, with the painting workshop contributing the most, at approximately 40%; Seasonal influences and production variations have an impact on emission characteristics.
