Smart Engines Planted an Oak Forest and Achieved Carbon Neutrality
Smart Engines, a leading developer of OCR, bank card and QR code scanning systems, has achieved carbon neutrality. The company has managed to fully offset its carbon footprint by participating in forest restoration projects.
In May 2023, Smart Engines planted 3,500 English Oak seedlings in the UNESCO-sponsored Biosphere Reserve.
The English oak is on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species and is one of the most carbon-absorbing trees, after aspen and birch. One hectare of oak forest can absorb 212 tonnes of carbon in 50 years.
One recognition by Smart Engines' AI technology requires energy equivalent to 0.0001g of CO2. Planting one hectare of oak forest, the company calculates, will offset the ecological damage caused by all the recognitions for the foreseeable future.
