Last year, setec decided to develop an ambitious climate action plan to reduce its impact on the environment. We had already been calculating and monitoring our Carbon Footprint for years, but setec wished to undertake a more thorough analysis of its practices. Greenhouse gas emissions were notably calculated for each setec subsidiary as well as per project.
This climate strategy showcases setec’s commitment to develop its business sustainably. It helps limiting our GHG emissions and raising awareness within our company, working progressively towards a low-carbon economy.

Challenges

Our engineers truly believe in the benefits of transitioning to a low-carbon economy. All employees participated in the development of the climate action plan and in setting up objectives and performance indicators. Many workshops were organized to brainstorm ideas and develop the action plan
