Applicable Functions	Procurement Product Research & Development
Use Cases	Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems Intelligent Packaging
Challenge	Kalray, a leading semiconductor company, recognized the need to reduce its carbon emissions and lower its carbon footprint. However, the company faced the challenge of not having a clear understanding of its current greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. They needed to measure their emissions and identify areas for improvement. The challenge was not only to calculate the carbon footprint but also to involve the entire business in the process of reducing emissions. The company wanted to earn its first badge towards its Net Zero trajectory, but it needed a comprehensive and intuitive solution to measure and manage its carbon emissions. Read More
About Customer	Kalray is a 'fabless' semiconductor company and a leader in next-gen processors that specialize in intelligent data at both the cloud and edge levels. The company's teams work at the forefront of innovation, developing unique technological solutions that enable its customers to fully exploit the potential of a world that is now based on massive, disparate and pervasive data. With their patented 'manycore' architecture, Kalray's MPPA® intelligent processors are able to handle multiple data streams, enabling applications that leverage massive amounts of data to be smarter, faster, and more energy-efficient. Kalray's offering includes processors, accelerator cards with their software environment, and complete systems, which enable their customers to design the best solutions in high-growth sectors such as modern data centers, 5G, AI, Edge Computing, autonomous vehicles and many more.

Solution	Kalray turned to Greenly for a solution. Greenly offered a simple and intuitive measurement solution that allowed Kalray to better structure its environmental policy and draw up an action plan. The solution took into account not only direct and energy-related emissions (Scope 1 & 2) but also indirect emissions caused by service providers and services used by the company (Scope 3). With this comprehensive analysis, Kalray was able to identify its total carbon emissions, which amounted to 1922t CO2e in 2021. Armed with this information, Kalray defined an action plan to reduce its emissions. The plan involved managers for each major emission item, working together with each relevant department to define reduction actions that were both impactful and within reach, while respecting the 2022 development and growth objectives that had been defined.
