Life Cycle Assessment of Pre-training the Lucie 7B Open-Source Large Language Model on the Jean Zay Supercomputer

arXiv:2607.05408v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The environmental impact of training large language models (LLMs) is increasingly scrutinised, yet most published estimates focus on operational energy and disclose little about manufacturing (embodied) emissions, water consumption, or the underlying highperformance computing (HPC) infrastructure. We present a life cycle assessment (LCA) of the pre-training of Lucie 7B, an open-source multilingual Foundation Model developed by the OpenLLM-France consortium and trained on the NVIDIA H100 partition of the Jean Zay supercomputer operated by IDRIS
