- Abstract
The development of Chinese traditional manufacturing industry is accompanied by high carbon emissions. In order to promote the sustainable development of manufacturing industry, information and communication technology (ICT) is applied to upgrade manufacturing with a hope of both promoting sustainability and improving its output. This paper investigates three main smart manufacturing scenarios: ICT-enabled production line upgrades in the iron and steel industry, smart warehousing and virtual reality (VR) remote troubleshooting. Their ICT-enabled emission reduction and future potentials are formulated. Results show that it is feasible to outline ICTs’ enabling role on a low carbon economy and that ICTs will play a greater role on emission reduction in future.
