CarbonEco® is adapted from the methodology devised by Ademe. Upstream of construction, the new software package makes it possible to forecast every project's carbon footprint, so enabling Bouygues Construction customers to choose the best design and build options offered by the Group. It can be applied to all building and civil works projects (whether for construction or renovation), including housing, offices, schools, industry, engineering structures and tunnels. The software can also be used during the operational phase of the structure, after handover.
CarbonEco® forms part of the strategy of eco-design and deployment of comprehensive carbon accounting across the entire Bouygues Group. The policy of cutting carbon emissions is being developed in two key areas: constructing "low carbon" projects (energy consumption of buildings, alternative construction methods) and reducing the carbon impact associated with support processes (IT, purchasing, etc.), including employee mobility (eco-friendly driving, company travel plans, etc.).
CarbonEco® was tested and used on approximately 30% of the Group's projects in 2009. As of 2010, practically all of them will benefit from carbon audits.
The CarbonEco® software package for carbon audits
Jointly developed by Bouygues Construction with Bouygues Immobilier and Colas, and in collaboration with the Carbone 4 consultancy, CarbonEco® is a software package that gives owners an accurate assessment of the greenhouse gas emissions that will be generated by their projects, from design through to demolition, including the operational phase.
