It is the only national-level scheme in France offering companies a structuring framework for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and air pollutants in their transport activities.

Base IMPACTS is the official database of the French programme for environmental labeling of consumer goods. It has been built in parallel with the Product Category Rules (PCRs) of the 'ADEME platform'.

Bilans GES is an on-line resource centre with information, guides, database and tools on greenhouse gases (GHG) assessment and reduction.

It enables companies to provide a GHG inventory; the quantity emitted (or captured) by an organisation or territory over one year of activity. The emissions are classified according to predefined categories which helps to identify those with the greatest carbon impact and thus where action is most needed.

PLAGE helps companies and other organisations in the service sector to decrease energy use in the buildings they own. It focuses on optimising and rationalising energy consumption by buildings and infrastructure.

PLAGE guides the user through a step-by-step approach and provides several helpful tools such as checklist, calculators, etc. PLAGE users have reported being able to reduce their energy consumption by 15 to 20 % (and sometimes more) in just a few years.
