Linkbynet's Carbon Reduction Strategy with Greenly

Linkbynet is a company that was established 20 years ago to address the emerging needs of managed services and cloud computing solutions. The company has an optimistic view of technology and its proven benefits to the way we work, whether in-person or online. In a rapidly changing world, Linkbynet believes that strategic business transformation cannot be achieved without the development, management, and security of powerful, customized digital infrastructures. These invisible forces have become essential to the growth and survival of businesses and organizations.

Linkbynet, a leading provider of managed services and cloud computing solutions, recognized the need to address its carbon emissions. The company had been conducting actions to reduce its impact, such as eco-participation, promoting soft mobility, and maintaining a Minergie-labelled head office. However, it realized the need for a more comprehensive and strategic approach to its carbon footprint. The company wanted to identify the areas that needed the most improvement and establish a well-defined long-term strategy for reducing its emissions. The challenge was to find a simple, fast, and reliable solution to measure and manage its carbon emissions.

Linkbynet chose to work with Greenly, a company recognized for its simple, fast, and reliable carbon measurement solution. Greenly's solution, which has been awarded the French Tech Green 2020 label, was seen as the ideal tool for Linkbynet's needs. The solution takes into account not only direct and energy-related emissions (Scope 1 & 2) but also indirect emissions caused by service providers and services used by the company (Scope 3). With this comprehensive assessment, Linkbynet was able to identify its total carbon footprint and establish a reduction trajectory. The company also plans to make its service offerings more responsible and help its customers reduce their impacts. Internally, Linkbynet aims to raise awareness of climate issues and implement reduction actions, especially in its IT department.

This comprehensive approach to carbon reduction demonstrates Linkbynet's commitment to sustainability and its role in combating climate change.
