Project presentation
This building project in the municipality of Paris falls under the Label Bas-Carbone: the carbon counted is the carbon stored durably in the bio-based materials, such as wood, used in the building. Labelled under the Label Bas-Carbone, it targets 550 tonnes of CO₂ of expected storage in bio-based materials: they will be recognised after verification.
Environmental & social impacts
Beyond its climate effect, each project acts on the environment and the local area. Here is the assessment of this project, dimension by dimension.
Climate
82%
This project targets 550 tonnes of CO₂ of expected storage in bio-based materials: they will be recognised after verification. The carbon remains stored as long as the materials stay in the building.
Biodiversity
Low impact35%
This building project has no direct biodiversity objective.
Water
Low impact30%
This building project has no direct water objective.
Soils
Low impact25%
This building project has no direct soil objective.
Socio-economic
High impact85%
This project in Paris relies on building contractors and the bio-based materials sector.
Sustainable Development Goals
The 17 SDGs are a global framework defined by the United Nations to build a sustainable future by 2030. This project directly contributes to 4 of them. Here's why.
7
Affordable and Clean Energy
Ensure access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy
Why this project: This project contributes to this goal through the low-carbon practices it implements under the Label Bas-Carbone.
11
Sustainable Cities and Communities
Make cities and settlements inclusive, safe and sustainable
Why this project: By integrating bio-based materials into construction, this project reduces the carbon footprint of buildings and contributes to more sustainable cities.
12
Responsible Consumption and Production
Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns
Why this project: This project contributes to responsible consumption and production by substituting low-carbon solutions for conventional practices.
13
Climate Action
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
Why this project: This is the primary impact: this project targets 550 tonnes of CO₂ of expected storage in bio-based materials under the Label Bas-Carbone framework: they will be recognised after verification. This carbon remains stored as long as the materials stay in place.

Label Bas-Carbone method · Bio-based buildings
Construction using bio-sourced materials (wood, straw, hemp) that store carbon durably in the building structure.
The Label Bas-Carbone is the official framework of the French Ministry of Ecological Transition for emission reduction projects carried out in France. A project is labelled on the basis of its application, following a method approved by the ministry. Its emission reductions are then verified by an independent auditor before being recognised by the ministry.
How it works:
1. The project owner submits a file describing the reference scenario (without project) and the project scenario.
2. The difference between the two scenarios gives the net emission reductions, expressed in tons of CO₂ equivalent.
3. An independent auditor verifies the data in the field and validates the calculations.
4. The ministry issues the Low-Carbon Label and carbon credits are issued.
5. The project is monitored with periodic verifications.
