Who we are

Since 2011, the Association for Low Carbon Transition (ABC) has been actively involved in the fight against climate change by pooling expertise, raising awareness among stakeholders and providing organizations and citizens with the right solutions and best practices on a national and international scale to help them succeeding in their low-carbon transition.

Our international team

At ABC, it’s not the interns who make the coffee, Damien does it so well… Since his arrival, some of the team have become fans of the beverage.

Damien Huet, Director

The long days spent working on the methodology won’t get the better of him. Quentin would even work on the Bilan Carbone® with his eyes closed (but he keeps them open all the same…).

Quentin Guignard, Methodology Department Manager

Because ABC’s action is not limited to our borders, Elise has joined the team at the beginning of 2021 to develop its international reach.

Elise Yonneau, Project Manager Europe and International

Garance joined the international team in 2023 to support the development of ABC’s international projects!

Garance Yeghicheyan, Project Manager Europe and International

As Damien often says, Quentin is ABC’s 2.0 guarantor. Social networking, website, graphic design, there’s no stopping him. He’s also a fervent music fan!

Why this international website ?

Low-carbon transition transcends borders: it is a global challenge that concerns us all. In response, ABC has made international carbon accounting a core mission, working to unite stakeholders from around the world.

With financial support from ADEME, ABC is launching stg-httpslowcarbontransitionorg-staging.kinsta.cloud, an international platform designed to achieve two key objectives:

  1. Increase global awareness of carbon accounting through a step-by-step approach enriched with technical and targeted resources.
  2. Foster collaboration and knowledge sharing by encouraging international players to publish methods, databases and other documents on carbon accounting adapted to their specific context.

The platform’s initial resources, resulting from ABC projects and partnerships, are freely available and open to user contributions and updates.

Our Projects

The last ten years have seen a growing mobilization in support of climate issues, particularly among young people. Climate marches and demonstrations in schools illustrate the young generation’s commitment to what is considered to be one of the greatest challenges humanity has ever faced.

That’s why ABC is committed to raising public awareness, especially among young people.

ABC aims to bring together and make available a set of databases on an international scale, presenting emission factors for different countries.

The European LIFE Clim’Foot project, coordinated by ADEME between 2014 and 2018, is at the origin of this approach, having enabled partner countries to develop initial databases and associated emissions factors. 

Ongoing projects

To deepen low carbon transition topics on an international level, ABC has been leading since 2023 a LinkedIn group called International Low Carbon Transition, dealing with carbon accounting issues in the world.
