Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is a financial mechanism designed to accelerate facility modernization and decarbonization by using future operational savings to fund capital upgrades. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the global market for Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) has seen sustained growth, with the market value exceeding $37 billion recently. This growth is driven by the urgent need for energy efficiency in the built environment, which accounts for nearly 40% of global CO2 emissions.

Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) has emerged as a critical financial mechanism for facility owners seeking to modernize infrastructure without tapping into capital budgets. By partnering with an Energy Service Company (ESCO), organizations leverage future energy savings to fund current upgrades.

Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is a market-based financing mechanism that allows facility owners to improve energy efficiency without upfront capital expenditure (CapEx). By leveraging future energy savings to pay for present facility upgrades, EPCs effectively convert operating expenses (OpEx) into infrastructure assets.

Achieving carbon peaking and carbon neutrality is a major strategic decision made by China, standing at a height responsible for human civilization and based on the inherent requirements of realizing sustainable development.

In September 2025, the latest report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) points out that systematic energy management is the key to unlocking industrial energy efficiency potential and enhancing competitiveness. The global industrial sector could save up to $600 billion annually in energy costs, with digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) emerging as new accelerators.

The carbon market is an important policy tool for proactively addressing climate change and accelerating the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development through market mechanisms. Currently, China has established a national carbon emission rights trading market (for key emitters to fulfill mandatory emission reduction responsibilities) and a national greenhouse gas voluntary emission reduction trading market (to encourage voluntary emission reduction across society).
