London’s Zero Carbon Pathways Tool shows four ways that carbon emissions might be reduced to net zero by 2030. The Tool, developed by Element Energy, accompanies the report “Analysis of a Net Zero 2030 Target for Greater London” also written by Element Energy. This report should be read in conjunction with the tool for an explanation of the assumptions behind the four pathways. In the Tool, energy and carbon results are presented by sector, as well as some sector specific results such as vehicle kilometres for transport and supply by fuel type for district heat. Modelling has been done on a pan-London basis, so borough level results are an estimate only. This Zero Carbon Pathways Tool is an update of an earlier tool published in 2018, which showed pathways to net zero emissions by 2050. This older tool can also be found below.
