SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASUREMENT OF CARBON Emissions {SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING CARBON EMISSION}

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system and method for measuring carbon emissions, and specifically, to receive additional information related to payment in addition to payment information from a business terminal, to calculate an index of carbon emissions, and to calculate the carbon emissions. Using the indicators, a configuration is finally disclosed for calculating carbon emissions according to consumption.

Carbon emission, also called carbon labeling or carbon footprint, refers to the total amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) that occurs directly or indirectly in human activities or in the production / consumption of goods.

Greenhouse gases, which are mainly carbon dioxide, are the main culprit of global warming, and are causing environmental disasters around the world, and more and more goods are used to mark carbon emissions in Europe and around the world.

For example, the carbon emissions generated during the production and distribution of a pack of soy milk, and the carbon emissions generated during the consumption and disposal of distributed soymilk can be quantified and expressed as carbon emissions.

Carbon labeling schemes that label these carbon emissions in the form of labels are being implemented in the United Kingdom, Sweden, the United States, and Canada, and Japan has recently been envisioning to apply carbon labeling to certain products on large retailers.

The emergence of carbon emissions can promote a low-carbon consumption culture in modern societies, promote technology development of low-carbon products, and ultimately contribute to the global community's efforts to reduce greenhouse gases.

Carbon emission measurement system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a data receiver for receiving the first payment-related information in addition to the payment information from the business terminal, the carbon for calculating the index of carbon emissions corresponding to the received first payment-related information And an emission index calculator and a carbon emission calculator that calculates carbon emissions by using the calculated carbon emission index.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a terminal for measuring carbon emission includes a sales type determination unit determining a type of sales generated at a workplace, a carbon emission related collection unit collecting carbon emission related information, and the type of the determined sales. And a carbon emission calculation processing unit that generates the first payment related information including the carbon emission related information and processes the first payment related information to be used for calculating the carbon emission through a system for measuring carbon emission.

In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method for measuring carbon emission includes receiving first payment related information in addition to payment information from a business terminal, calculating an index of carbon emission corresponding to the received first payment related information, And calculating the carbon emissions using the calculated carbon emission index.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In describing the present invention, when it is determined that detailed descriptions of related known functions or configurations may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted. Terminology used herein is a term used to properly express a preferred embodiment of the present invention, which may vary according to a user, an operator's intention, or a custom in the field to which the present invention belongs. Therefore, the definitions of the terms should be made based on the contents throughout the specification. Like reference numerals in the drawings denote like elements.

1 is a diagram illustrating a network 100 for measuring carbon emissions according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The network 100 for measuring carbon emissions may measure carbon emissions in association with a user's payment.

In detail, the business terminal 110 may transmit additional information other than the payment information to the system 140 for measuring carbon emission through the VAN server 120 in response to the user's payment behavior.

Similarly, the business terminal 110 may transmit the payment information to the card company server 130 to correspond to the user's payment behavior so that the payment processing may proceed.

The additional information is generated at the time of credit card payment, and is used to measure carbon emissions. Includes information on mobile transportation, purchases, and facilities usage.

For example, when the subject of the additional information is a gas station, the system 140 for measuring carbon emission may calculate a carbon emission index per element. In this case, the standard output indicator may be received from an external organization and the indicator may be calculated based on the standard output indicator.

According to one embodiment of the invention, an indicator of carbon emissions per unit should be calculated. To this end, workplaces may work with external professional agencies to produce indicators of carbon emissions used to calculate carbon emissions.

Further information according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include the type of vehicle (passenger, SUV, truck, etc.) and the year of the vehicle.

Subsequently, the system 140 for measuring carbon emission may calculate carbon emission from the carbon emission data calculated based on the calculated carbon emission index. In addition, the system 140 for measuring carbon emission may provide the calculated carbon emission data to a national institution, and control the utilization thereof.

For example, data on monthly carbon emissions measured at a workplace (or affiliated store) may be obtained to provide an advertisement or the like to a workplace (or affiliated store) having a low monthly carbon emission.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, when the second payment related information is received from the user terminal in the data receiving unit 210, the carbon emission index calculation unit 220 according to an embodiment of the present invention receives the received second An index of carbon emissions corresponding to payment related information is calculated, and the carbon emission calculator 230 may calculate carbon emissions by using the calculated carbon emission index.

In this case, the second payment-related information may be interpreted as information that is directly input by the user and cannot be confirmed when the credit card is settled. In addition, the user's terminal may be interpreted as a computer terminal, a mobile communication terminal, or the like, capable of web access.

For example, a user may make a payment with a credit card at a business place and voluntarily register carbon emissions for an unused credit card transaction through a web page provided by the credit card company.

Carbon emission measurement system 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention can measure the carbon emissions using any one or both of the first payment-related information and the second payment-related information.

In the case of using both, the data receiver 210 receives the first payment related information from the business terminal and the second payment related information from the user's terminal, and the indicator calculating unit 220 of the carbon emission is received. Indices of carbon emissions corresponding to the payment related information and the second payment related information are respectively calculated, and the carbon emission calculator 230 may calculate carbon emissions by using the calculated carbon emission indexes.

Estimated carbon emissions can be accumulated by individuals or companies, and by providing information on accumulated carbon emissions, it can raise interest in the environment.
