Description

SEM Ile de France Investissements et Territoires, a parapublic real estate company specializing in commercial real estate, has partnered with Geosophy to implement the SCAN solution, a cleantech innovation for carbon-free heating and cooling. Traditionally dependent on conventional engineering firms, the company adopted SCAN to assess geothermal energy potentials, aligning with global carbon reduction goals. This geo-energy approach minimizes dependence on fossil fuels, reduces costs, and reinvests savings into further innovation. The adoption of SCAN sets a benchmark in sustainable real estate, positioning the company as a leader in eco-friendly development and contributing to reduced urban greenhouse gas emissions.


Impact & Result

- Achieved a 90% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to traditional gas systems.
- Realized a 50% decrease in CO2 emissions compared to standard electrical heat pumps.

Solution Spotlight

Geosophy allows real estate and construction professionals to assess the geo-energy potential of the subsoil of a building to be renovated or built. They can thus cool their buildings in summer and heat them in winter, dividing their energy costs by 5, and reducing the carbon footprint of a building by up to 90%. Geo-energy, or surface geothermal energy, is a local, sustainable, non-carbonated, discreet and silent energy from the shallow subsoil, which at this stage is largely under-exploited in France. This solution is based on our ability to develop Physics and financial models, using data science and machine learning techniques to automatize and refine feasibility studies of geo-energy installations.
