中文摘要
2019年,建筑运营和施工产生的二氧化碳排放量达到了有史以来的最高水平,约占全球排放量的38%。英国建筑业面临着减少温室气体排放和到2050年达到净零排放目标的巨大压力。SustainIQ目前与建筑行业合作,帮助承包商通过废物管理、用水、能源使用和运输,轻松了解其运营对环境的影响。然而,在测量温室气体影响时,运营碳只是其中的一部分,他们还需要了解在同一建筑上工作的分包商的影响,以及他们为建设项目采购的材料的影响。SustainIQ将创建一个简化的解决方案,帮助英国建筑业与他们的供应链合作,收集每个建筑的运营和隐含碳影响的数据。这将集中在两个方面:1\;用于分包商报告其在构建期间对现场的范围1和2影响的门户(代表对主承包商的范围3影响)2\。通过比较在建筑设计阶段指定的产品与委托并交付到现场的产品的环境评级,该门户网站将捕获建筑的实际隐含碳。建筑行业需要一个解决方案,简化他们如何在实现净零排放方面发挥作用,拥有数据来展示他们的影响的整体图景,并跟踪环境目标的表现是至关重要的。
英文摘要
CO2 emissions from building operations and construction reached their highest level ever recorded in 2019 at around 38% of global emissions. The construction industry in the UK under enormous pressure to reduce GHG emissions and reach Net Zero targets by 2050\.SustainIQ currently works with the construction sector to help contractors easily understand their operational environmental impacts through waste management, water use, energy use and transport. However operational carbon is only one part of the picture when it comes to measuring GHG impacts, they also need to understand the impacts of the subcontractors that are working on the same build and the impacts of the materials that they procure to construct the project.SustainIQ will create a simplified solution to help the UK Construction Industry to engage with their supply chain to gather data on operational and embodied carbon impacts of each build.This will focus on two areas:1\. A portal for subcontractors to report on their scope 1 &2 impacts on site during the build (which represents scope 3 impacts for the main contractor)2\. A portal which will capture the actual embodied carbon of the building by comparing the environmental ratings of products specified at design phase of the build versus the products which are commissioned and delivered to site.The construction industry needs a solution which simplifies how they can play their part in getting to net zero, having the data to showcase a holistic picture of their impacts and track performance towards environmental targets is crucial.
