Détecnet, a private investigation agency specializing in strategic data retrieval, was seeking a straightforward solution to conduct their Greenhouse Gas (GHG) assessment. The company wanted to contribute to the fight against climate change and understood the importance of measuring their carbon emissions as a first step towards reducing them. However, they needed a tool that could help them quantify their carbon footprint accurately and efficiently. The challenge was not only to account for direct and energy-related emissions (Scope 1 & 2) but also to consider indirect emissions caused by service providers and services used by the company (Scope 3).

Détecnet chose to work with Greenly, a company known for its simple and intuitive carbon measurement solution. Greenly's tool, which has received high ratings from customers and earned the French Tech Green 2020 label, was the obvious choice for Détecnet. The tool allowed Détecnet to calculate their carbon footprint, which turned out to be 126t CO2e in 2021. This data helped Détecnet to better structure their environmental policy and draw up an action plan for long-term emission reduction. The plan involves managers from each major emissions item, working together with relevant departments to define reduction actions that are impactful, achievable, and in line with the company's 2022 development and growth objectives.

• Working with Greenly has allowed Détecnet to accurately measure their carbon footprint and structure their environmental policy more effectively. The data provided by Greenly's tool has been instrumental in helping Détecnet draw up an action plan for long-term emission reduction. This plan is not only impactful but also achievable, as it involves managers from each major emissions item and respects the company's 2022 development and growth objectives. The process has also increased awareness and involvement in sustainability efforts across different departments within the company.

• Détecnet's total carbon emissions for 2021 were quantified at 126t CO2e.

• The carbon footprint was equivalent to 126 round trips between Paris and New York.

• The emissions were also equivalent to the annual emissions of 13 French people.
