Introduction
We are looking for organisations interested in submitting digital solutions they are deploying (as a user or technology provider) to test and apply the EGDC Net Carbon Methodology (NCM) and calculate the net carbon impact of an ICT solution.
We are looking for the following types of digital solutions:
-
- An end-to-end ICT/digital solution using digital technologies for activities including monitoring, analysis, and communication.
- The solution results in emissions savings – this can often occur through a reduction in resource use, but it can be any mechanism.
Both implemented and pre-implemented solutions are welcome.
Why are we developing case studies?
To demonstrate the net positive impact that digital technologies can have across multiple sectors
To offer insights into the calculation of the net carbon impact of real-life digital solutions
To emphasise the importance of robust data practices in accurately assessing net climate impacts
What will one case study include?
- A calculator to measure the net carbon impact of the ICT solution from its implementation. The net carbon impact of an ICT solution is measured by assessing the difference in greenhouse gas emissions between two scenarios within the same boundary:
- A counter-factual scenario (the reference scenario) without the implementation of the ICT Solution.
- A solution scenario with the implemented ICT solution.
- A methodology document
- A case study summary
What is the added value for participating organisation?
Access to capital
This initiative can assist in securing sustainable finance
Access to free advisory support
To develop accurate avoided emissions case studies
Gain positive public relations
The case studies can be used externally to demonstrate your impact at EGDC events, international events attended by EGDC and your own marketing and communications
Growth opportunities
By developing the solutions reducing emissions for your customers
What is the added value for participating organisation?
Step 1
Submit your interest to the EGDC (link below)
Step 2
Kick-off meeting between EGDC and interested organisation
Step 3
Data review and finalisation
Step 4
Case study calculation and methodology development
Step 5
Case study review meeting
Step 6
Review by EGDC and advisory board Communication of the case study on EGDC website and social media accounts.
