Sinopec Wins Technological Innovation Award at the 2nd Sino-European Corporate ESG Best Practice Conference
The Conference reviews and awards the best ESG application cases in six areas of environmental protection, social responsibility, corporate management, scientific and technological innovation, education and training, to further enhance mutual understanding between Chinese and European businesses, facilitate bilateral economic and trade exchanges, and showcase China's open, inclusive and confident mindset to European society.
"Sinopec has harnessed technological innovation as a powerful engine in its journey toward carbon peaking and carbon neutrality," the jury panel said. "By focusing on strategic areas such as oil and gas exploration and development as well as green and low-carbon transformation, the company is vigorously advancing high-end, intelligent, and green development."
Leveraging its integrated, full-industry-chain innovation capabilities, Sinopec is scaling up clean energy solutions and decarbonization in production to continuously empower the social development.
Driven by innovation, Sinopec's Project Deep Earth is regarded as "Mount Everest underground" to unlock ultra-deep oil and gas reserves and light up the green future of the earth. In shale gas exploration and development, Sinopec's Fuling Shale Gas Field is the first in China with commercial development, boasting reserves of hundreds of billions of cubic meters.
In promoting the green and low-carbon technology, Sinopec built China's first megaton CCUS project as well as the world's first 100-kilometer CO₂ transmission pipeline. Sinopec collaborates with Shell, China Baowu and BASF to launch the joint study on the first 10-million-tonne open-source CCUS project to provide a new path of decarbonization emphasizing both emission reduction and carbon sequestration.
Innovation is powering Sinopec to continuously break new ground and achieve intelligent transformation. In 2024, the world's first intelligent ethylene factory based on digital twin technology was put into operation, and Sinopec's AI digital employee is now on duty at over 40 integrated energy stations to provide smart services to customers.
At the Conference, Sinopec also released the "World Energy Outlook 2060" report, which is Sinopec's first energy and chemical industry development report released in Europe.

CUPE FLIGHT ATTENDANTS PROVE BARGAINING, NOT CARNEY'S SECTION 107, DELIVERS DEALS
OTTAWA, ON, /CNW/ - Air Canada flight attendants, members of CUPE, have delivered a decisive blow to employers who think they can sidestep fair bargaining by hiding behind Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code. Prime Minister Carney's government chose to impose Section 107 just hours after the strike began—an unprecedented and heavy-handed move to tilt the scales in the employer's favour. With the backing of the entire labour movement, CUPE stood its ground, defied the order, and forced the company back to the bargaining table—where a fair deal was reached. The outcome makes one thing clear: Section 107 is no longer a reliable weapon for employers. By refusing to bow to government interference, CUPE flight attendants exposed Section 107 for what it is: an unconstitutional violation of workers' Charter-protected right to free and fair collective bargaining. Any employer thinking of leaning on Section 107 in the future should think twice—it's a crutch that just snapped. Deals are made where they should be—at the bargaining table. That's good for workers, good for communities, and good for building lasting relationships between unions and employers. The entire labour movement is grateful to flight attendants for their strength and perseverance in standing firm for these rights. The last 24 hours have shown that Section 107 is unconstitutional, unenforceable, and corrosive to free collective bargaining. Canada's unions are calling for its removal from the Canada Labour Code. We urge all parties in Parliament to make this a priority in the upcoming fall session—because protecting workers' Charter rights should never be optional, and employers must never again be allowed to rely on Section 107 to delay or deny fair bargaining. The lesson from this strike is undeniable: workers win when they fight, and collective agreements are made through negotiation, not government-imposed edicts. Section 107 has been dealt a blow it shouldn't recover from—and that's good news for every worker in Canada.

Damon Evolves I/O Platform with Advanced Machine Learning for Adaptive Rider Performance
VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 19, 2025 /CNW/ - Damon Inc. (OTCID: DMNIF) ("Damon" or the "Company"), a designer and developer of electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that seek to empower the personal mobility sector through innovation, announced the next phase in the evolution of its Damon I/O platform with the introduction of an advanced machine learning module developed by Damon to be the cornerstone of its forthcoming Hypersport Race (HSR), a high-performance electric motorcycle model developed to demonstrate the Company's technology . This enhancement enables dynamic performance tuning based on rider behavior, vehicle data, and environmental inputs, delivering on the Damon's vision to transform personal mobility through smart, AI-connected experiences. Building on the Damon I/O platform launched in June 2025, Hypersport Race (HSR) is entering its prototype development phase in September 2025. For track riders, the system analyzes lap-by-lap performance, including cornering speed, braking patterns, and throttle control, to provide actionable, intuitive feedback. The goal is to help riders become safer, faster, and more efficient. Unlike complex track analysis tools built for engineers, Damon I/O translates sophisticated data into a rider-friendly format, highlighting clear performance gains and safety improvements without requiring technical expertise. "For the first time, track riders will have the sophistication of a race engineering team, distilled into insights they can understand and act on instantly," said Dominique Kwong, CEO of Damon. The system operates on a continuous feedback loop. Every ride generates new data, which is processed both on the motorcycle (edge learning) and in the cloud. This dual approach allows the system's intelligence to evolve in real-time. The more a rider contributes, the smarter Damon I/O becomes, delivering deeper, personalized insights that enhance performance and safety. This rider-focused feature also showcases the power of Damon I/O for the broader market. As stated in the company's Q3 fiscal commentary, Damon has diversified its business model beyond being solely a motorcycle development company to become a leader in intelligent data solutions for the personal mobility sector. This new machine learning module is a tangible example of the high-margin, data-driven services the Damon I/O platform can provide to other personal mobility OEMs and fleet operators. "Your motorcycle will now evolve as fast as your skills do, and every ride makes it better," added Kwong. "This is the future we are building: a fusion of high-performance hardware and intelligent software that not only enhances the experience for our own riders but also provides the digital backbone for the entire personal mobility industry." About Damon Damon Inc. is a designer and developer of personal mobility products and technology solutions that integrate AI-driven safety systems, smart electrification, and user-driven design to revolutionize sustainable transportation. Operating across four potential revenue verticals - Data Intelligence & Services, Engineering Services, Personal Mobility Products, and Special Projects – Damon believes it is positioned to capture a significant share of the $40B global electric two-wheeler market by 2030 1. The company distinguishes itself through its integrated ecosystem approach, combining advanced data analytics and engineering expertise, while seeking to enter into strategic partnerships with OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. Damon emphasizes accessible mobility solutions while leveraging its proprietary AI-driven safety systems and intelligent energy management technology to deliver superior performance and operational efficiency in the urban and business mobility space.
