Case studies

Corporate carbon footprint Erard’s carbon footprint Érard is a French industrial group (founded in 1961, based in Isère) specialising in audiovisual equipment and furniture. The company chose Kapstan to carry out its first Carbon Footprint assessment. Photovoltaic expertise Carbon footprint of a photovoltaic power plant and a forest Kapstan supported Enoé, a photovoltaic developer, in calculating the carbon footprint of a solar power plant installed in Réaup-Lisse. LCA and eco-design Eco-design of photovoltaic modules from DMEGC Solar DMEGC, a solar panel manufacturer based in China, has partnered with Kapstan to certify the eco-design of its products sold in France. Photovoltaic expertise Carbon footprint of a photovoltaic power plant in the Landes region of France Solar project developer Valorem has calculated the carbon impact of one of its photovoltaic power plants with Kapstan. LCA and eco-design Carbon footprint of EDM wire from Thermocompact Kapstan accompanied Thermocompact in comparing the impact on climate change of machining two EDM wires using the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) method. LCA and eco-design LCA of an eco-designed telecom infrastructure AMIE Telecom was supported by Kapstan in conducting a life cycle assessment (LCA) of an eco-designed telecom structure. Corporate carbon footprint Orion’s carbon footprint Orion Energies, a company that develops, builds, and operates photovoltaic plants in France, conducted its carbon assessment with Kapstan. Photovoltaic expertise LCA of Voltec Solar photovoltaic modules Kapstan supported Voltec in the life cycle analysis of their photovoltaic panels produced in France. Corporate carbon footprint JEM carbon footprint Joreau Elastomères Mélanges, specialized in the manufacture of elastomer mixtures, has carried out its carbon footprint assessment with Kapstan. LCA and eco-design Comparative LCA of CARBON photovoltaic plant CARBON, a French solar panel manufacturer, worked with Kapstan to compare the carbon footprint of its factory with that of a benchmark factory in China.
