Reducing carbon emission and achieving the?sustainable development goal is an irreversible trend around the world. As a leading piping manufacturer, RIFENG, thus, actively explores a new way of sustainable and coordinated development-- building a waste heat recovery system and a photovoltaic system by relying on abundant solar energy resources.

This $19-million project includes solar panels covering an area of 290,000 square meters. It is expected to produce about 25 million kWh of electricity annually. Besides, compared with thermal power generation, this photovoltaic system can save more than 3,000 tons of coal, reduce about 9,200 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, up to 280 tons of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission and over 2,510 tons of dust emission.

While taking electricity generation to another level and realizing energy efficiency, RIFENG also upgrades the equipment and moulds of pipes and fittings injection, replacing manual cutting with mechanical cutting. The transformation will significantly increase the working efficiency by 2 times. Moreover, each injection moulding machine is equipped with a servo energy-saving system, saving up to 52% of electricity annually.
In fact, it is not the first time for RIFENG to follow the green development. As early as March 2020, its ten products obtained EPD certification, including but not limited to PP-R pipes, PEX pipes, PVC drainage pipes, multilayer pipes, crimp fittings and press fittings. It shows RIFENG’s determination to persist in green development as always.
