Net Zero Pathfinder - Phase 2 Manchester

**净零开拓者，曼彻斯特第二阶段**将以第一阶段可行性研究的结果为基础，实施以当地为基础的净零计划，以创新的全系统方法加速实现城市的净零目标。曼彻斯特市议会和曼彻斯特气候变化机构认识到，为了实现2038年的净零排放目标，需要在脱碳方面进行大量额外投资。在第一阶段可行性研究中，为包括当地城镇中心在内的周边地区制定的净零计划目前估计价值5500万英镑。我们将继续我们在第一阶段开发的创新方法，直接与当地利益相关者合作，包括区域基础设施运营商、社会住房提供商、运输运营商和大曼彻斯特联合管理局，进一步完善和发展这一净零项目管道。根据城市的本地能源计划（LAEP），我们将继续开发混合投资组合，包括从现有的、寻求结果的本地融资中获得资金，并继续我们的工作，从第一阶段开始，与公共和私营部门利益相关者合作，为我们的投资组合吸引更多的私人融资选择。这将支持我们继续解决一系列非技术壁垒，包括：利用追求成果的资金撬杠杆追求回报的投资；建模跨混合投资组合的收入流；评估结果购买者的利益；利用财务披露来降低公共资金的风险；不断增长的本地供应链和技能机会；建立有利的政策框架；为交付设计正确的治理、法律和合同安排；有效吸引居民、企业和当地社区参与；在地方政府和相关利益攸关方内部建设实现净零交付的能力。在第一阶段可行性研究结果的基础上，我们将适应、完善和测试一个地方内混合资产（家庭、商业、工业、公共）的净零项目（涵盖电力、供热和交通）的集合，以吸引混合投资组合，从而实现大规模脱碳。

**Net Zero Pathfinder, Phase 2 Manchester** will build upon the findings of the Phase 1 feasibility study towards the delivery of a local place-based net zero programme to accelerate delivery of the City's net zero targets using an innovative whole-systems approach.Manchester City Council and Manchester Climate Change Agency recognise the need for significant additional investment in decarbonisation for the City to reach its net zero 2038 goals.The net zero plan created in the Phase 1 feasibility study for the area around and including a local Town Centre currently has an estimated value of £55m. We will continue with our innovative approach developed during Phase 1 by working directly with local stakeholders including regional infrastructure operators, social housing providers, transport operators and Greater Manchester Combined Authority to further refine and develop this pipeline of net zero projects. Informed by the City's Local Area Energy Plan (LAEP), we will continue to develop a blended investment portfolio including funding from existing, local outcome-seeking finance and continue our work, started at Phase 1, to engage with both public and private sector stakeholders to attract additional private financing options to our portfolio.This will support us in continuing to address a range of non-technical barriers including: using outcome-seeking funds to leverage return-seeking investment; modelling revenue streams across a blended portfolio; valuing benefits for outcome buyers; using financial disclosure to de-risk public funds; growing local supply chains and skills opportunities; creating an enabling policy framework; designing the right governance, legal, and contractual arrangements for delivery; engaging residents, businesses, and local communities effectively; and building capacity for net zero delivery within local government and relevant stakeholders.Building on the findings of the Phase 1 feasibility study, we will adapt, refine, and test the aggregation of net zero projects (covering power, heat and mobility) from across mixed assets (domestic, commercial, industrial, public) within a local place to attract a blended portfolio of investments that can unlock decarbonisation at scale.
