Achieving net zero requires translating national climate targets into practical decisions. The Carbon Budgeting Toolkit helps local authorities understand how highway maintenance emissions evolve over time and how operational activities align with long-term decarbonisation pathways.
By linking emissions data with national and sectoral decarbonisation pathways, the toolkit provides a structured way to track emissions over time and support decision-making in asset management and infrastructure planning.
The toolkit includes:
- Carbon Budgeting Toolkit Instructions – Guidance on how to use the toolkit, including downloading the files, completing the Excel template, and loading the data into the dashboard.
- Carbon Budgeting Power BI Dashboard Template – A ready-to-use dashboard for exploring emissions data and viewing progress towards net-zero targets.
- Excel Upload Template – A structured template for entering emissions data by activity, scheme, and material/action.
