Co-County Carbon Co-ordination; a co-ordinated approach to achieving Net Zero at scale

德比郡和诺丁汉郡的净零行动正在发生，但速度还不够快。例如，廷德尔气候变化研究中心的报告警告说，在2017年的二氧化碳排放水平下，Broxtowe将在2020年起的六年内使用其全部碳预算。该预算预计将持续到2100年。这一挑战在D2 N2的各个地区都有反映。人们担心，尽管合作伙伴关系发挥了作用，但机会正在被错过。这是因为缺乏采取集体行动的资源。此外，地方当局需要他们的公民和企业界在这一旅程中积极参与，知情。在每个D2 N2 LEP县的净零合作的基础上，有一个更紧密合作的目标，这将由净零创新和交付官员促进，他将支持战略项目的协调，包括：\* 开发Co-County净零项目管道。* 与公共和私营部门的利益有关者合作，支持制定本区域的能源总计划。制定和实施行为改变相关方参与计划，并考虑支持居民低碳技术的运行和维护。这可能包括为居民制作一个工具包和指南，介绍不同的碳减排技术选择以及如何使用、操作和维护它们。分享最佳实践和经验教训，如诺丁汉郡的绿色奖励平台和德比郡的可再生能源规划指南。

Net zero action across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire is happening, but it is not happening fast enough. For example the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research report warns that at 2017 CO2 emission levels, Broxtowe would use its entire carbon budget up within six years from 2020\. This budget is supposed to last until 2100\. This challenge echoes across districts within D2N2\.There is a concern that opportunities are being missed despite the partnership working. This is because there is a lack of resource to take collective actions forward. Furthermore, Local Authorities need their citizens and business communities to be active, informed participants on this journey.\*Building on the net zero collaboration in each D2N2 LEP County , there is an ambition to move to even closer collaborative working and this would be facilitated by the _Net Zero Innovation and Delivery Officer_ who would support the co-ordination of strategic projects including:\*Development of a Co-County net zero project pipeline.\*Support the development of an energy master plan for the region, in partnership with public and private sector stakeholders.\*Develop and implement a Stakeholder Engagement Plan on Behaviour change plus look at supporting the operation and maintenance of Low Carbon technologies for residents. This could include the production of a toolkit and guide for residents on different carbon reduction technology options and how to use, operate and maintain them.\*Share best practice and lessons learned such as Nottinghamshire's Green Rewards platform and Derbyshire's Renewable Energy Planning guide.
