FTTH Eco Platform Academy

Your company has not yet carried out its carbon footprint 

Your company will have to report its carbon footprint (see CSRD), and you could also have a voluntary approach to decarbonizing your activity and differentiate your company 

The FTTH Eco Platform then provides you with the means to carry out your first carbon footprint in just a few months, helped by an Expert, TOOVALU, with international methodology (GHG Protocle), training and software. Generic training is carried out in a group, with peers, also dividing its costs. 

As a summary, the main benefits are as follows:  

• Methodology: Access to established frameworks for carbon assessment. 

• Tools: Utilization of specialized tools for accurate measurement. 

• Training: Educational resources to enhance understanding and capabilities. 

• Individual Support: Tailored assistance to address specific challenges. 

• Industry Database: A repository of relevant data for informed decision-making. 

• Peer Networking: Opportunities to connect with industry peers for shared learning. 

• Additionally, this support is offered at an Unparalleled Price point, as costs are shared among participants. 

Your company already carries out its carbon footprint 

A significant part of the company's emissions comes from its purchases. Suppliers must therefore also learn how to carry out their carbon assessment to initiate their decarbonization and send you primary data. By integrating primary data that is better than generic one, you reduce your company's carbon footprint. This program is open to any company in the fibre value chain, even non-members of the FTTH Council. By helping your suppliers and bringing them into the program, you are ultimately helping your business at no additional cost to you. 

By providing your data (see Q&A), FTTH Eco Platform will provide you in return with the min-max product carbon footprint of the sector, as well as the carbon intensity of your products (See Q&A). This data allows you to benchmark yourself and scale the effort to remain competitive from a carbon point of view. 

As a summary, the main benefits are as follows:  

• Stakeholder Involvement: To achieve ambitious reduction targets, such as those set by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or Net Zero commitments, it is essential to engage stakeholders, including suppliers. 

• Primary Data Requirement: To accurately reflect reductions in carbon emissions, suppliers must provide primary data instead of relying solely on emission factors from databases. 

• Supplier Participation: Many suppliers may lack the capability to provide this data; however, they can join the ECO Platform to contribute primary data in return, enriching the overall database for their customers. 

Once engaged, suppliers will introduce innovations that can add significant value: 

• Benchmarking Resources: Companies often find it challenging to assess their environmental efforts. A "living benchmark" can provide ongoing insights. 

• Sector Figures: By supplying data from Year -1, the ECO Platform delivers sector-specific benchmarks, allowing companies to compare their performance annually. 

• Strategic Resource Allocation: This benchmarking capability enables companies to determine the appropriate level of effort needed to maintain competitiveness. 

No other platform is providing such level of insights to enable companies to manage its strategy ! 

• Competitive Pricing: This platform offers a compelling price point and rapid implementation, facilitated by shared costs through The Academy.
