Training objectives

Acquire the knowledge base needed to initiate, manage and contribute effectively to a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction program or project.

Be able to qualify GHG emissions linked to energy consumption (excluding emissions linked to a chemical reaction such as clinker production, for example) at different levels of the company (from global to specific equipment).

Be able toadopt a pragmatic approach to reducing GHG emissions.

Finally, be able to propose a monitoring and communication plan for the company’s GHG reduction .

At the end of the course, participants will have carried out a diagnosis and drawn up an action plan based on a case study, giving them the tools they need to replicate the approach in their own company.

Pedagogical objectives

At the end of the course, participants will be able to :

  • How to use an Excel file to process a carbon footprint or GHG protocol
  • Translate the various interests and reasons for reducing GHG emissions into the specific context of your company.
  • Takingstock of GHG emissions
  • Define a GHG emissions reduction plan – identify and prioritize actions
  • Identify external resources for carrying out the various phases of a consumption and supply optimization project.
  • Propose measures to increase the chances of success of the GHG reduction plan within the company

Training program content

Module 1: Introduction to energy-related GHG emissions and the need to reduce them
  1. GHGs and climate change :
    • The main greenhouse gases and their role in global warming
    • Link between GHG emissions and company energy consumption
  2. The Bilan Carbone method :
    • Presentation of the Bilan Carbone method developed by ADEME and scope 1, 2 and 3
    • Bilan Carbone stages: scope, data collection, analysis, etc.
    • Concrete examples of carbon footprints for different companies
  3. Reasons and motivations for a company to reduce its GHG emissions :
    • Regulatory aspects
    • Economic aspect
    • Counterparty aspect
Module 2: Reducing GHG emissions by emission scopes

Scope 1: Direct GHG emissions

  1. Assessment of direct GHG emissions :
    • Identifying sources of direct emissions (combustion, industrial processes, etc.)
    • Scope 1 GHG emissions measurement and monitoring methods
  2. Scope 1 emission reduction strategies :
    • Improving the energy efficiency of plant and equipment
    • Use of energy sources with lower GHG emissions

Scope 2: Indirect energy emissions

  1. Analysis of indirect energy-related GHG emissions :
    • Identification of sources of indirect emissions (electricity and purchased heat)
    • Evaluation of emissions linked to the purchase of electricity and heat
  2. Scope 2 emission reduction strategies :
    • Choosing green electricity and renewable energies in the supply chain
    • Optimizing the energy efficiency of buildings and processes

Scope 3 – more succinctly, as it overlaps with the training theme: Indirect emissions other than those related to energy

  1. Identification of Scope 3 indirect emissions :
    • Analysis of emissions linked to business travel, purchasing, etc.
    • Understand the company’s extended carbon footprint (upstream, downstream)
  2. Strategies to reduce Scope 3 emissions :
    • Promoting sustainable mobility for business travel
    • Raising supplier awareness and integrating environmental criteria into purchasing
Module 3: Defining and implementing a GHG reduction plan
  1. Plan development :
    • Setting GHG emission reduction targets
    • Short-, medium- and long-term action planning – prioritizing actions
  2. Implementing the plan
    • Team commitment to the process
    • Organizational elements for a successful approach
  3. Where to turn for support
    • The different types of service providers and the services they can provide
Module 4: Case studies
  • Analyze the evolution of the plan and keep the project alive over time
Module 5: Monitoring and communicating progress
  1. Setting up monitoring indicators :
    • Measurement of GHG emission reductions and energy savings achieved
    • Monitoring the company’s environmental performance
  2. Internal and external communication on climate commitment:
    • Promoting actions and results to stakeholders and employees
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
