Why Carbon Management? Carbon Management at Southampton Next steps Introduction to Carbon Trust The Carbon Trust helps business and public sector : • cut carbon emissions • capture commercial potential of low carbon technologies •Advice & Information •Research Grants •Research •Financial Incentives •Venture Capital •Policies & Regulation •Carbon Management •Technical •Finanical www.thecarbontrust.co.uk What is The Carbon Management Programme? A step by step technical and change management process to: • • • • • • • • Understand our Carbon Emissions Footprint Develop a Business Case for change Develop an ongoing management framework Provide a methodology for prioritising action Prepare an implementation plan Monitor action - Quantify and Publicise benefits Integrate carbon management into existing business practice . What is The Carbon Management Programme? Understand Carbon Emissions Footprint Example baseline courtesy of the University of Bath Breakdown of 2002 annual emissions (total emissions = 25,937 tCO2) Buildings - electricity 6,657 26% Transport 9,187 35% < Typically, most emissions are from buildings, then transport Paper 284 1% Water 194 1% Buildings - gas 9,615 37% Buildings - electricity Buildings - gas Water Paper Transport Carbon reduction opportunities: framework & examples Activity area Policy Organisational practices Day to day management “Sharp end” Individual project initiatives Buildings Targets e.g.: 10% Reduction by 2010 Capital Projects ‘Standards’ IT Procurement Energy management Ring fenced fund Staff/student awareness (switch it off!) Controls e.g. Highfield and ASSB Photovoltaics Transport Greening of our Transport Policy Vehicle Specification Car sharing Park and Ride Bicycles Car Driving Awareness Distribution Logistics New fuels, e.g. H2, CNG, biodiesel Water and Waste Water conservation, Waste minimisation Water metering Recycling/resource recovery Staff/student awareness (use less) Water tap controls Grey water use, Recycling facilities Teaching and Learning Sustainable learning environment, Curriculum integration Climate change course(s), low-CO2 technol. course(s) Learning-by-doing/ practices Climate change modelling; CO2 scenarios Research Sustainability through research Partnerships Low-CO2 research Product/technology development (eg PV, fuel cells, appliances) Demo projects, test sites.
