CSEM is at the forefront of sustainable innovation, co-developing technology solutions that tackle today’s environmental challenges. From harnessing solar power to monitored water quality, our actions today shape the world of tomorrow. Discover the impactful technologies we are helping to develop to secure a greener legacy.
CSEM is actively involved in 29 European projects that are developing practical solutions in areas such as solar energy, recyclable batteries, precision agriculture, modular electronics, and more. Our projects span 32 European countries including collaborations with Australia and Canada, showcasing with our commitment driving to sustainable change through technological innovation.
The European Climate Law sets ambitious goals: a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. To achieve this, we need transformative changes across food, energy, mobility, construction, and more. CSEM's dedication to sustainability aligns with the Union Nation’s global vision for better future-one where technology drives positive impact.
CSEM’s involvement in European projects directly supports six of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These goals guide our work, ensuring that our innovations contribute to a more resilient and equitable world.
Additionally, CSEM is leading the Green ECS (electrical components and systems) Working Group at the European industry association of EPoSS. The working group has recently released a white paper on Green Smart Systems: ECS Sustainability and Environmental Footprint. CSEM is also involved in keeping the sustainability aspects in fore front in the current Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) of ECS.
Together with our Heterogeneous Technology Alliance (HTA) partners of VTT, CEA-Leti, FhG Microelectronics we want to be on the front of the green transition with our sustainable and eco-friendly solutions. Concrete internal actions at CSEM corporate level are: Since 2015, we have reduced the carbon footprint of our employees by 26.5% and we continue to promote environmentally friendly practices. Our dedication to sustainability drives us to invest in solutions that align with the UN SDGs, ensuring that innovation and sustainability go hand in hand for a better future. By collaborating and innovating together, we can overcome the challenges of our time and create a sustainable, circular and technologically advanced future.
