Abstract: This article investigates the industry 4.0 recent shift toward a more environmentally responsible way of operation. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used in this article to measure carbon emissions throughout the product development life cycle. An accurate accounting of carbon emissions must first be completed for this to work. Consequently, IoT technologies have been used to collect real-time data with confidence to monitor the environmental consequences of products throughout the life cycle. Energy efficiency, energy structure optimisation and market-based economic measures such as energy/carbon taxes have minimised energy consumption and carbon emissions under a long-term low-carbon strategy. The proposed method shows less-energy conservation rate of 15.6%, an emission rate of 11.8%, a high-energy efficiency rate of 94.5%, a production rate of 90.8% and a sensitivity rate of 97.6% compared to other methods.
