… (retrofit measures) and in the longer term all buildings need to switch from gas/oil (fossil fuels) to a low or zero carbon heat technology. Transport decarbonisation – requires a planned replacement of all existing vehicles with low or zero emission vehicles and the development of an appropriate located supporting infrastructure. A key challenge here is heavier trucks, where the current new…
… published by DEFRA the emissions are divided into three categories, Scope 1, 2 and 3 as described below. Category Description Example data used in this analysis Scope 1 Emissions that the Council is directly responsible for. • Metered heat (gas) data for buildings where SDDC pay the heating bills. • Mileage for SDDC-owned vehicle fleet and pool cars along with vehicle make/model and age…

… resulting from the Council’s in-house activities are from heat (gas) and vehicle (petrol and diesel fuel). This results in four specific high emission sources, which in order of magnitude are the Greenbank Leisure Centre, Council vehicle fleet, Etwall Leisure Centre, and Civic Way Offices, accounting for 91% of the Councils total 2,500 tCO2e emissions. Identifying these high carbon emitters…
