Most of Orange Business’s carbon footprint lies in Scope 3 emissions¹. Last year, 81% of emissions came from equipment purchases, customer equipment use, services, and other purchases, with equipment and customer use making up 43%. The plan aims to target these areas with Ekinops, while paving the way for future supplier collaborations.
“This decarbonization plan reflects a true partnership focused on measurable environmental benefits,” says Sébastien Bernard, Corporate Sustainability & Risks Manager at Ekinops. “It aligns with our climate goals and elevates both companies’ environmental commitments.”
Ekinops will keep improving the measure of its products’ carbon footprint, identify reduction opportunities in manufacturing, usage, and logistics, and track environmental performance over time. It will also assess energy use across configurations and design modular, repairable, and recyclable products. Long-term, Ekinops aims to increase renewable and low-carbon energy in manufacturing. In turn, Orange Business will incorporate supplier innovations into network and product designs, integrating these innovations into future solutions.
“The decarbonization plan is an important milestone in embedding sustainability across our operations and supply chain,” says Sandra Servières, Orange Business Chief Procurement Officer. “By working closely with partners, we can accelerate the transition to a low-carbon digital future and create lasting value for our organizations, communities, our customers, and the environment.”
