Technology at the heart of the ecological transition

For most reference players (6th IPCC report, Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, ADEME Transitions 2050 scenarios), technology is essential to the ecological transition.

According to ADEME, the number of digital devices could reach up to 11 billion connected objects in France in 2050.

Faced with this expected strong growth in IoT, IIoT solution providers will need to prioritize those solutions showing the most significant impact:

  • The right amount of technology: Meeting needs that low-tech or behavior changes cannot meet
  • Useful technology: Saves more carbon & energythan needed to build them (net positive impact)

 

Our vision: a strong guideline

We believe that technology should contribute to simple, sustainable & safer environments.
LACROIX is positioned as an actor in ADEME’s 2 (Territorial cooperation) & 3 (Green technologies) scenarios, in line with our vision of a useful and eco-designed technology.

We don’t believe that the solution to the ecological crisis lies in technology alone,
but we are convinced that technology is essential to meeting environmental and societal challenges.

In a world where energy and resources are increasingly scarce and precious,
the technologies we maintain and develop must demonstrate both their usefulness & sobriety.
