The growing commitment of companies to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reflects a proactive approach to combating climate change. In this context, a major French operator sought our expertise to measure, analyze, and reduce its carbon footprint by deploying a high-performance and integrated data infrastructure. This project highlights our innovative and tailored approach, combining technological expertise and strategic consulting, to support clients aiming to reconcile digital development with environmental responsibility.
The client's need: measuring and reducing the carbon footprint
Amid evolving regulations and increasing pressure to adopt sustainable practices, our client sought to implement a comprehensive solution to optimize the management of its carbon emissions.
The challenge was twofold: first, to collect accurate data from diverse internal and external sources, and second, to transform this data into actionable insights to identify opportunities for reducing CO2 emissions.
Key expectations:
