… and previous analyses determining the latent capacity of urban transport infrastructures for decarbonising measures. The following table gives a small, general sense of the scale of deployment that our carbon-reduction scenarios envisage in practical terms by the year 2037: Sector Measure Total Disaggregated Addition Commercial T5 Lighting (conversions & new luminaries) 1.926M m2…

… successfully in Leeds, Birmingham, Sheffield and Bristol as well as cities in India, Asia and the Americas. It sets out baseline emissions and ‘business as usual’ carbon reduction trajectories across four key sectors of Edinburgh’s economy: domestic housing; commercial buildings, transport and industry. These trajectories are then adjusted by modelling the impact of applying hundreds of different…

… and commercial buildings, transport, and industry. These interventions could significantly reduce emissions and are modelled precisely to the particular characteristics of Edinburgh’s economy, demography, infrastructures and built environment. Our full analysis will follow this summary report and is informed by the ‘Stern’ methodology of evaluating the scale of cost, energy and emissions impacts…
