Description

A carbon emission trading system that grants carbon credits based on the amount of carbon reduction

[0001] The present invention relates to a carbon emission trading system that grants carbon credits based on the amount of carbon reduction.

[0002] With the recent rapid onset of climate change, there is a growing call within the international community to use the term "climate crisis" rather than "climate change." The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has warned that a 2°C rise in the average global temperature will have a catastrophic impact on the Earth's ecosystem. Predictions suggest that the Earth will face a catastrophe as it falls into a vicious cycle of self-inflicted temperature increases due to the accelerated melting of permafrost in Siberia and glaciers in Antarctica and Greenland. Climate change is now an international issue and a problem that must be solved to preserve the Earth's ecosystem.

[0003] The biggest factor behind this climate change is the continuously generated large amount of greenhouse gases. Recently, a universal framework involving all countries worldwide has been established through the Paris Agreement, and many countries are implementing carbon emission trading schemes to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.

[0004] However, companies participating in the conventional carbon emissions trading system are raising complaints due to the lack of transparency in emission allocation and reliability in emission monitoring, and market activation is currently being hindered by the instability of carbon emission allowance supply.

[0005] Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0016145 relates to a method for determining carbon credits obtained as a result of a control event in which power is required at least one service point connected to a power grid serviced by at least one facility, comprising: a step of determining power consumed by at least one device located at the at least one service point during at least one time period to generate power consumption data; a step of storing power consumption data; a step of initiating a control event while power to the at least one device is reduced; a step of determining the amount of power reduced during the control event based on the stored power consumption data; a step of determining a generation mix for power that would have been supplied to the at least one device during the time period of the control event if the control event had not occurred; and a step of determining the amount of carbon credits obtained based at least on the generation mix and the amount of reduced power. A load management system controller may determine carbon credits as a result of a control event in which power to one or more service points serviced by an electric business entity is reduced.

[0006] Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2024-0138219 describes a trading unit that supports the trading of carbon emission rights through a coin for carbon emission rights trading; and a supply control unit that controls the supply of said coin according to price fluctuations of said coin through said trading; The present invention relates to a blockchain-based carbon emission rights trading system comprising: a coin management unit that manages the generation, circulation, and extinction of carbon emission rights according to the creation, trading, and use of the said coin; wherein information regarding the creation, trading, and use of said coin is recorded and managed via a blockchain through a transaction ledger for each coin, thereby supporting enhanced security, prevention of double counting, and global market circulation of said carbon emission rights in the transaction of said carbon emission rights. By dualizing the system into a first coin containing carbon emission rights used for trading and a second coin used for proof-of-stake for mining the first coin, and managing this through distributed ledger (transaction ledger) technology so that carbon emission rights suppliers and consuming companies can freely trade carbon emission rights and objectively recognize transaction information, the system can enhance security in the transaction of said carbon emission rights, prevent double trading, and realize free and fluid market circulation.

[0007] Korean Patent Registration No. 10-2317077 describes an artificial intelligence prediction unit that predicts the increase or decrease in greenhouse gas emissions of facilities through data obtained from sensing devices attached to multiple facilities; an agency unit that predicts the total amount of carbon emission rights to be sold by summing the total reductions of facilities for which the artificial intelligence prediction unit predicted a reduction in emissions, and announces a competitive bid to energy supply companies on the condition of energy exchange equivalent to the predicted amount of sale; and a substitution rate setting unit that sets the amount of energy substitution based on the lowest price per unit of fuel among the energy supply companies that responded to the bid through the agency unit. The system includes an economic feasibility notification unit that, if the artificial intelligence prediction unit predicts an increase in emissions, notifies the facility manager of a fuel loss amount equivalent to the cost of purchasing carbon emission rights based on the energy substitution amount determined by the substitution rate setting unit, and if the artificial intelligence prediction unit predicts a decrease in emissions, notifies the facility manager of a fuel gain amount equivalent to the cost of selling carbon emission rights based on the energy substitution amount determined by the substitution rate setting unit; wherein the artificial intelligence prediction unit constructs the information matrix by setting the time interval applied to the time axis of a two-dimensional information matrix composed of a time axis and respective information as a predetermined initial interval, obtains a first performance evaluation result of a learned RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) based model using the information matrix, performs a first iteration process of increasing the time interval and obtaining a first performance evaluation result of the learned RNN based model using the information matrix according to the increased time interval until the first performance evaluation result is no longer improved, determines the last increased time interval in the first iteration process as the optimal time interval, and has the time axis according to the optimal time interval Construct the above information matrix, and using the above information matrix, set the tracking period to a predetermined initial size to obtain the performance evaluation results of the trained RNN-based model, andThe present invention relates to an artificial intelligence-based carbon emission trading system that performs a second iteration of obtaining a second performance evaluation result of an RNN-based model trained according to the increased tracking period after increasing the tracking period, until the second performance evaluation result is no longer improved, determines the last increased tracking period as the optimal tracking period during the second iteration, and trains the RNN-based model according to the optimal tracking period using an information matrix having the optimal time interval, thereby accurately predicting the increase or decrease of greenhouse gases generated from facilities, inducing greenhouse gas reduction by notifying facility managers of the economic benefits resulting from the increase or decrease of greenhouse gases, and enabling the purchase of energy at a low price without fees by exchanging carbon emission rights generated from greenhouse gas reduction for energy.

[0060] The transportation sector accounts for approximately 17.3% of South Korea's greenhouse gas emissions, making it the second-largest contributor following the energy industry sector. In particular, as road traffic accounts for the majority (approximately 95%) of carbon emissions in the transportation sector, the participation of both individuals and transportation companies is a key factor in achieving national carbon emission reduction targets. Against this backdrop, the present invention provides an innovative solution capable of having a direct and immediate impact on reducing carbon emissions in the transportation sector as follows.

[0061] It enables ordinary citizens to obtain economic benefits in exchange for complying with carbon emission reduction policies, such as being granted carbon credits (carbon emission rights) based on the achievements obtained from participating in carbon emission reduction policies and receiving monetary compensation by trading these credits.

[0062] In addition, it enables accurate and reliable real-time carbon emission monitoring by utilizing IoT technology.

[0063] Furthermore, it presents personalized carbon emission reduction strategies through driving pattern analysis and AI prediction models, ensures reliability by recording and globalizing all transactions and data on a blockchain, and verifies the accuracy of carbon emission reduction calculations to issue official certificates via the blockchain, thereby enabling rewards for carbon emission reduction activities in various forms, such as carbon credits, points, and tangible benefits.

[0064] As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5, the carbon emission trading system of the present invention, which grants carbon credits according to the amount of carbon reduction, comprises: when carbon emission data transmitted from a vehicle via an OBD2 interface is received by a terminal (100), the terminal (100) transmits the carbon emission data to a carbon emission data server (300); an AI server (400) analyzes and processes the carbon emission data based on deep learning to provide carbon reduction strategies and prediction information; and a blockchain server (300) provides the information analyzed and processed by the platform management server (1) and the AI ​​server (400) to the terminal (100), a verification agency (500), a carbon emission trading exchange (600), and a buyer (700) through each node. The system comprises a platform management server (1), a vehicle owner or driver terminal (100) that receives carbon emission data in real time from the vehicle via an OBD2 (On-Board Diagnostics) interface, and a device that receives and stores the carbon emission data received by the terminal (100). It consists of a carbon emission data server (200) for managing carbon emission data, a blockchain server (300) for mapping carbon emission data stored and managed in the carbon emission data server (200) to a blockchain network, an AI server (400) for providing carbon emission reduction strategies and prediction services based on the carbon emission data, a verification agency (server, 500) for verifying carbon emission reduction data calculated based on the carbon emission data, a carbon emission trading exchange (server, 600) for handling carbon emission trading granted to participants in carbon reduction policies based on the results verified by the verification agency (500), and a buyer (terminal, 700) for purchasing carbon emission rights through the carbon emission trading exchange (600).

[0065] The data transmitted from the vehicle to the vehicle owner or driver terminal (100) via the OBD2 (On-Board Diagnostics) interface may be, for example, vehicle data such as speed, RPM data, TPS data, mileage, fuel consumption, driving pattern, etc., which is carbon emission data calculated by a carbon emission calculation device.

[0066] The above platform management server (1) manages vehicle information registered by the vehicle owner or driver and can receive a certain transaction fee when the carbon emission rights transaction is completed.

[0067] The above management server (1) receives carbon emission data managed by the carbon emission data server (300), calculates and manages carbon emission reduction data using a predetermined calculation method, and enables verification by the verification agency (500).

[0068] The above management server (1) receives applications for registration and sale of carbon emission rights to the carbon emission rights exchange (600) based on carbon credits or reward certificates granted to individuals and stakeholders, and performs the role of receiving payment from the buyer through the carbon emission rights exchange (600) when a carbon emission rights transaction is concluded, and distributing a portion of the profits obtained through the carbon emission rights transaction to drivers who participated in eco-friendly driving according to a predetermined ratio.

[0069] The verification agency (500) reviews the carbon emission data, carbon emission reduction data, and calculation method received from the management server (1), verifies whether the carbon emission data and carbon emission reduction data have been accurately calculated using the determined calculation method, and issues a carbon credit or a reward certificate when the verification is completed.

[0070] The above carbon emission exchange (600) performs the role of registering carbon emission rights based on carbon credits or reward certificates granted to individuals and stakeholders, reviewing data submitted for carbon emission rights registration and issuing carbon emission rights corresponding to the amount of carbon reduction, receiving applications to sell the issued carbon emission rights, receiving applications to purchase carbon emission rights from buyers such as companies or institutions that need carbon emission rights, and transferring the buyer's payment to the platform management server (1) when a carbon emission rights transaction is concluded.

[0071] Meanwhile, the calculation method verified by the verification agency (500) may be as follows.

[0072] Carbon emission data can be calculated based on accurate fuel consumption, but it can also be calculated indirectly using Mass Air Flow (MAF) information from vehicle data and the chemical reaction equation of octane contained in the fuel.

[0073] MAF is the amount of air mixed per gram of fuel in a chemical reaction, also known as the air-mixture ratio, and its unit is g / s.

[0074] In addition, unlike the carbon emission calculation using the above MOF, carbon emission calculation can be performed using the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change).

[0075] The established CO2 emission calculation formula is designed to calculate carbon emissions including idling, based on the guidelines of the revised "International Energy Use Rationalization Act" and IPCC guidelines. Furthermore, for domestic vehicles that do not meet OBD2 standards, the system can be designed to calculate carbon emissions based on various types of information.

[0076] Next, the operational flow of carbon emission trading will be explained.

[0077] First, data generated during vehicle operation (mileage, fuel consumption, driving patterns, etc.) is collected and provided to the platform management server (1).

[0078] When data generated during the operation of the above vehicle is collected, this data is transmitted to the carbon emission data server (200) via the terminal (100) and then received by the management server (1). The management server (1) calculates real-time carbon emission data based on the collected data, for example, by calculating carbon emission reduction data compared to 2018.

[0079] The carbon emission reduction data calculated by the above management server (1) is transmitted to the verification agency (500) and verification is performed.

[0080] The verification agency (500) reviews the carbon emission data and carbon emission reduction data transmitted from the management server (1) and the calculation method applied to calculate the carbon emission data and carbon emission reduction data, verifies whether the carbon emission data and carbon emission reduction data have been calculated accurately, and issues a carbon credit or a compensation certificate to the management server (1) once the verification is complete. The carbon credit or compensation certificate may be a means of certifying the amount of carbon emission rights calculated based on the carbon emission reduction data.

[0081] Accordingly, the above management server (1) applies to the carbon emission rights exchange (600) to issue carbon credits or compensation certificates, which are verified through the above verification agency (500) and granted to individuals and stakeholders, as carbon emission rights.

[0082] The above carbon emission rights exchange (600) verifies the carbon credit or compensation certificate transmitted from the management server (1) and issues the corresponding amount of carbon emission rights to the management server (1).

[0083] The management server (1) applies to sell carbon emission rights issued by the carbon emission rights exchange (600) to the carbon emission rights exchange (600) on behalf of the carbon emission rights owner.

[0084] Buyers, such as companies or institutions requiring the above carbon emission rights, apply to the above carbon emission rights exchange (600) to purchase carbon emission rights.

[0085] The carbon emission rights exchange (600) performs the execution of sell and buy transactions through a trading system.

[0086] When a carbon emission rights transaction is concluded through the above-mentioned sell and buy execution operations, the purchase price is transmitted from the buyer to the management server (1) via the carbon emission rights exchange (600).

[0087] The management server (1) distributes a portion of the profits obtained through carbon emission trading to drivers who participated in eco-friendly driving according to a predetermined ratio.

[0088] Meanwhile, when a buyer, such as a company or institution requiring the above carbon emission rights, applies to purchase carbon emission rights at the above carbon emission rights exchange (600), the platform management server (1) can control the transaction to be concluded on a one-to-one basis.

[0089] At this time, the management server (1) can control the transaction so that, when the amount of carbon emission rights that a buyer wants to purchase is greater than the amount of carbon emission rights that the individual or company has registered to sell, the management server (1) additionally issues carbon credits or compensation certificates based on the carbon emission reduction data that is processed in real time, and additionally registers carbon emission rights on the carbon emission rights exchange based on this, thereby concluding the transaction.

[0090] Next, the overall system operation flow for carbon emission trading will be explained.

[0091] First, when a user (driver or stakeholder) launches the mobile app and logs in, a login request is sent to the API Gateway, and user authentication is requested from the API Gateway against the authentication service means, thereby completing the login on the mobile app.

[0092] Subsequently, when vehicle data (driving data) detected by IoT devices is transmitted in real time to the carbon emission calculation service means of the platform server, the carbon emissions are calculated in real time by the carbon emission calculation service means, and the calculated carbon emission data is collected and processed on the blockchain in real time.

[0093] Subsequently, when a user requests the creation of carbon credits through the mobile app, the API gateway retrieves accumulated carbon emission reduction data calculated by the carbon emission calculation service. Carbon credits are then generated based on this accumulated data through the processing of a carbon credit creation transaction on the blockchain and transmitted to the mobile app. At this time, carbon credits are generated and transmitted to the mobile app in a manner where the transaction processing via the blockchain is performed depending on whether the accumulated carbon emission reduction data is converted.

[0094] Subsequently, when a user requests to sell carbon credits via the mobile app, the sale order is transmitted to the trading matching engine of the carbon emission rights exchange through the API gateway. Once the order is registered and processed, the transaction is executed. In cases requiring large-scale trading, the system supports bulk transactions by linking with other carbon emission rights exchanges, and carbon emission rights trading is conducted in a manner that ensures transparency and reliability by recording transaction details on the blockchain.

[0095] Subsequently, once the reward is calculated through the reward service means after the transaction is completed, the reward information is transmitted from the reward service means to the API gateway.

[0096] Subsequently, transaction completion and reward information is transmitted from the API gateway to the mobile app, and the user becomes aware of the transaction results and reward information through the mobile app.

[0097] The above-described operation flow enables real-time data flow from the IoT device to the user interface, and can guarantee user authentication through an authentication service and data integrity using blockchain.

[0098] In addition, it is possible to support large-scale carbon emission trading through linkage with other carbon emission trading exchanges, transparency is ensured as all major transactions are recorded and tracked on the blockchain, and driver participation can be motivated through reward services.

[0099] Meanwhile, the present invention is configured not to limit carbon emission information solely to the transportation sector, but to classify it into various sectors such as the energy conversion sector, the building sector, and the factory (industrial) sector, and to manage these sectors in an integrated manner at the national level, thereby enabling compensation for carbon emission reduction activities in various forms, such as carbon credits, points, and tangible benefits. In such a case, the carbon emission exchange can be configured for each sector to trade carbon emission rights separately, and can be networked to facilitate the execution of transactions by linking with one another during large-scale carbon emission trading.

[0100] According to such a carbon emission information management system, carbon emission information from each sector can be integrated and managed nationwide. This is achieved by verifying carbon emission information in real time through monitoring means installed on the server of the National Comprehensive Situation Room, thereby enabling the management and reduction of carbon emissions by industrial sector and the nation as a whole. Furthermore, by utilizing carbon emission information providing terminals and carbon emission information requesting terminals connected to networks including wired and wireless communication networks, carbon emission information of companies or individuals belonging to each industrial sector can be integratedly managed and operated. This carbon emission information can then be provided to a carbon emission trading system that grants carbon credits based on carbon reduction amounts.

[0101] As shown in FIG. 6, this integrated management system may be configured to include a corporate / individual (10) terminal, a carbon emission collection unit (20), a carbon emission management system (30), a comprehensive control room monitor (40), and a manager terminal (50).

[0102] The carbon emission collection unit (20) may include an information transmission unit (21) and an information collection unit (22).

[0103] The information collection unit (22) collects carbon emission information from companies / individuals (10), and the information transmission unit (21) transmits the information collected by the information collection unit (22) to the carbon emission management system (30).

[0104] The carbon emission management system (30) may include an information management unit (31), a carbon emission prediction unit (32), an information provision unit (33), and a management information DB (34).

[0105] The information management department (31) receives carbon emission information from the carbon emission collection department (20).

[0106] The carbon emission prediction unit (32) predicts carbon emissions on a corporate or individual basis based on information collected by the information management unit (31).

[0107] The information provider (33) provides carbon emission information predicted by the carbon emission prediction unit (32) to the comprehensive control room monitor (40) and terminal (50) so that carbon emission information screens and national comprehensive control room screens can be generated and displayed for each industrial sector.

[0108] The management information DB (34) can store past carbon emission information in a database format for each company and individual unit or for each industrial sector.

[0109] The present invention, configured as described above, is built based on a microservices architecture, such as a data collection layer including IoT devices, APIs, ETL, etc., a data processing layer including real-time stream processing, batch processing, an analysis layer including big data analysis, AI model training and inference, an application layer including RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and a presentation layer including responsive web interfaces and mobile apps, and can provide scalability, flexibility, and fault isolation.

[0110] In addition, large volumes of data can be efficiently processed and stored through data lakes for storing and managing raw data, data warehouses for storing structured data analysis, time series databases capable of storing time series information such as sensor data, and in-memory caching capable of utilizing Redis for fast data access.

[0111] In addition, it is possible to establish a multi-layered security system capable of ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by applying personal information protection technologies that enable encryption such as TLS / SSL and data encryption (AES-256), authentication and authorization management such as OAuth 2.0 and JWT, network security such as firewalls, VPNs, and IDS / IPS, application security such as OWASP compliance and static / dynamic code analysis, auditing and monitoring such as real-time security event monitoring and logs, data backup and recovery such as regular backups and disaster recovery plans, and the application of data anonymization and pseudonymization technologies.

[0112] In addition, compliance with domestic and international security and data protection regulations is possible through ISMS-P (Information Security and Personal Information Protection Management System), ISO / IEC 27001 (Information Security Management System), GDPR (European General Data Protection Regulation), and cloud security certification (CSA STAR).

[0113] As another embodiment of the present invention, it may be configured to allow carbon credits to be granted when applying climate technology in the production process of plastic products or when selling low-carbon plastic products.

[0114] This can be defined as the Mini Carbon Initiative (MCI) and implemented as a system that evaluates the carbon reduction of climate tech products and services and provides corresponding Mini Carbon Credits (MCC).

[0115] A fragmented carbon reduction plan involves establishing existing products and services (baselines) that specific climate tech products and services intend to replace, defining a Gate-to-Gate relationship based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), and submitting a plan that specifies the step-by-step carbon reduction plan for the products and services. Upon submission, the company is recognized as a climate tech enterprise through evaluation and verification, followed by certification of its reduction performance and subsequent granting of carbon credits. This process allows for the evaluation of carbon reduction amounts in specific parts of the entire process, and can be implemented by granting credits only for the performance of the corresponding carbon reduction amount.

[0116] As seen above, the detailed description of the present invention has described preferred embodiments of the invention; however, this is merely an illustrative description of the best embodiments of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, it is obvious that anyone skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can make various modifications and imitations within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention without departing from it.
