Project DNA (Dashboard for Net-Zero Action)

中小企业往往缺乏时间、技能和知识来实现其气候雄心。对于如今在成本上升中苦苦挣扎的中小企业来说，迈向净零排放看起来是资本密集型的，而且风险很大。有各种各样的碳会计工具可以帮助小型企业避开供应链中碳排放量较高的供应商。一个能够采取行动减少自身排放的企业可以期望提高其价值主张，并且随着供应链的变化更有可能赢得业务。然而，目前对于希望了解和减少自己车辆、运营和建筑物碳排放的小型企业来说，选择很少。Go for Zero工具是一个在线仪表板，可以提供自动化但个性化的建议，从电动汽车车队和充电到安装太阳能，所有这些都只需点击按钮。它使用移动和能源数据为中小企业提供针对这些资本密集型技术的量身定制的回报计算。据行为改变专家称，组织可以通过技术修复和新技术减少约25%的能源使用，但人们的行动可以使这种影响加倍。该项目将特别研究如何利用能源数据来增强中小企业领导者的能力，吸引员工参与，并交流净零目标的进展情况。净零行动项目仪表板（DNA）将寻求改善向用户传达数据和建议的方式，使用行为洞察力，并通过添加细粒度的开放能源数据，可以将正确的信息交给中小企业，以便他们采取行动，展示进步。其目的是设计一个数据丰富但以人为本的工具，帮助企业找到净零技术的最佳组合，并使整个组织参与到净零的路线图中。DNA项目对中小企业行为，灵活性态度，清洁技术的选择和优化的财务回报可以帮助更广泛地了解中小企业如何与净零互动。改进后的Go for Zero工具有可能帮助不仅是中小企业，而且还可以减少公用事业，银行和其他机构的障碍，以加速其客户实现净零。这些组织在为企业提供净零排放方面发挥着关键作用，Go for Zero仪表板可以通过数据和分析来帮助加快净零排放行动的融资。

SMEs often lack the time, skills and knowledge to achieve their climate ambitions. For SMEs struggling with rising costs today, moving towards net zero looks capital intensive and risky.There are a variety of carbon accounting tools that help smaller businesses avoid suppliers with higher carbon emissions in their supply chains. A business that can act to reduce their own emissions can expect to improve their value proposition and would be more likely to win business as supply chains change. Yet there are currently very few options for smaller businesses looking to understand and reduce the carbon emissions from their own vehicles, operations and buildings.The Go for Zero tool is an online dashboard with automated but individual recommendations on everything from EV fleets and charging to installing solar, all at the click of a button. It uses mobility and energy data to provide SMEs with tailored payback calculations on these capital intensive technologies.According to behaviour change experts, organisations can reduce their energy use by around 25% through technical fixes and new technologies, but the actions of people can double this impact. The project will, in particular, look at how energy data can be harnessed to empower SME leaders, engage employees and communicate progress on Net Zero goals.Project Dashboard for Net-Zero Action (DNA) will seek to improve the way data and recommendations are communicated to users, using behavioural insights and by adding granular open energy data that can put the right information in an SME's hands so that they can take action and demonstrate progress. The aim is to design a data-rich but human-centred tool that helps find the best combination of net zero technologies for a business and engages a whole organisation in the roadmap to Net Zero.Project DNA's findings on SME behaviour, attitudes to flexibility, cleantech choices and optimised financial return could assist wider understandings of how SMEs will interact best with Net Zero.The improved Go for Zero tool has the potential to help not only SMEs, but also to reduce barriers for utilities, banks and other bodies looking to accelerate their customers towards net zero. These organisations have a key role in delivering Net Zero for businesses and the Go for Zero dashboard can help with data and analysis to accelerate the financing of net zero action.
