AMB Carbon Management Strategy 2030
Calculation of the carbon footprint of organizations and support for the achievement of reduction targets
Motivation
The Barcelona Metropolitan Area has been promoting the 2030 Carbon Management Strategy for years, through which it aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated by the AMB, including concession companies, its own facilities and offices. The target is a 55% reduction in GHG emissions compared to 2011.
The scope of the strategy includes the more than 50 organizations and companies that provide services in the metropolitan territory in the following sectors: offices, mobility, territory, waste and water.
Results
ERF provides technical support to the AMB to carry out the emissions inventory of all the organizations included in the strategy. The support includes the preparation of the monitoring documentation, the review of the organizations’ activity data, the performance of the calculation and the support to the verification process using the UNE-EN ISO 14064-1:2019 standard. It also offers support to organizations for the planning of actions to reduce emissions that contribute to the achievement of the Strategy’s objectives.
