Shenzhen, China + Portland, OR | May 28, 2026 - IMPAQ Tech (“IMPAQ”), a leading, comprehensive TIC (Testing, Inspection, Certification, Carbon Assessment) quality technology solution provider in China and Ren Energy (“Ren”), a leading corporate supply chain renewable energy procurement company, are pleased to announce the establishment of Ren China, Inc., a new joint venture company formed to accelerate renewable energy adoption for global Fortune 500 companies across their China-based supply chains and operations.

 

Ren China offers global corporations comprehensive supply chain renewable energy procurement programs and transaction support services in China, providing an established local team of experts that work with a company’s suppliers in China to help them transition to renewables. Ren Energy has provided these services to leading global companies—Nike, Target, Google, Otto and HP—to tackle their Scope 2 + 3 emissions. Ren China makes this broad network of local support official.

As the urgency to reach net zero intensifies, large corporations face mounting pressure to decarbonize not only their own operations but also their extensive supply chain networks, many of which operate in markets with underdeveloped regulatory frameworks, limited infrastructure, and complex cultural contexts. These barriers have made it difficult to advance renewable energy procurement at scale in APAC—notably, in China where fragmented market structures, limited direct procurement pathways, and constrained access to developers continue to slow progress.

Ren China is the first corporate renewable energy procurement model of its kind dedicated to enabling global corporations to overcome these barriers in China through a dual offering of:

  1. ​​Transaction Execution Support – A specialized team of local experts delivers on-the-ground support and programs in Chinese, enabling companies and their China suppliers to navigate market-specific complexities and drive new local projects.
  2. Supply Chain Technology Platforms – Visualizes renewable energy adoption across global suppliers and operations, identifies actionable next steps, centralizes procurement data, and facilitates supplier programming and communication in native languages.

By combining hands-on procurement execution with a purpose-built technology platform, this joint approach delivers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution that includes: 

  • Data Management + Analysis: Mapping and managing scope 2 + 3 emissions and energy use to gain a unified view of global supply chains and operations.
  • Renewables Strategy: Identifying country-specific opportunities and building actionable procurement launch plans based on climate targets and goals.
  • Supplier Engagement Programs: Developing culturally-fluent programs that educate, incentivize and activate suppliers to procure renewables in China.
  • Transaction Support + RFP Management: Facilitating clean energy transactions by developing RFPs, building developer relationships, and executing local contracts.

 

“The creation of Ren China represents a critical step toward tackling one of the most complex challenges in decarbonization: Scope 3 emissions across global supply chains. Through this joint venture, we’re enabling companies to take direct, measurable action, converting supplier engagement into real renewable energy projects at scale.” - Raelene Kong, CEO of IMPAQ

“Global supply chains represent the largest untapped demand for renewable energy. But in markets like China, turning that demand into actual projects is incredibly complex. By pairing Ren Energy’s transaction execution engine with IMPAQ’s local reach and cultural fluency, we’re creating a new pathway to move from supplier engagement to signed, scalable renewable energy deals.” - Eric Jen, Founder + CEO of Ren Energy

By combining IMPAQ’s cultural fluency, sustainability expertise, and local relationships in China with Ren Energy’s global execution capabilities and first-mover expertise in the APAC market, Ren China is uniquely positioned to help global corporations and their suppliers reduce their China emissions.
