Calculation of carbon footprint
Our contribution to avoided emissions
* Avoided emissions are an estimate of the impact of a solution on CO2 emissions compared to a reference situation, over the entire life of the product and in a life cycle approach. Between November 2022 & February 2023, McPhy conducted a study with a specialized Consulting firm to calculate the emissions avoided by its products.
** Study made on a captive fleet of light vehicles.

Support the fight against climate change.
By its nature, McPhy equipment enables the decarbonization of industry, mobility and energy; decarbonization is the basis of McPhy’s strategy to help its customers, both public and private, in their Net Zero strategies and to sustain the environment in which we exist, especially in terms of climate. Through the commercial and industrial deployment of its advanced technologies, McPhy intends to contribute to the fight against climate change. In addition to the emissions not generated by its customers through their use of McPhy equipment, the Company also wishes to reduce its carbon intensity for scopes 1 and 2.
