APSE Energy Webinar - Making sense of measuring Scope 3 emissions using existing tools and toolkits

In this webinar we heard from the Net Zero What Works group at University College London and APSE Energy Associate, Alan Barber on measuring scope 3 emissions.

The Net Zero What Works group recently conducted research into scope 3 emissions reporting at local authorities and the tools and toolkits available to support local authorities to reach net zero. The research found that there is currently a lack of consistency in the measuring and reporting of scope 3 among local authorities as a result of the disparate tools and toolkits available.

This webinar, titled 'Making sense of measuring scope 3 emissions using existing tools and toolkits' aimed to support local authorities to understand the support that is available to make a more informed choice on what will work best in their authority, with the presentation from the Net Zero What Works Group covering the below points:

• Summary of Scope 3 emissions and why they are important
• What tools/toolkits for measurement are available out there?
• What different purposes can they be used for? And what are their differences in terms of types of emissions measured and geographic scale?
• Evaluating tools and toolkits: What questions you should be asking  

Speaker - Penny Clark, Research Fellow, University College London & Net Zero What Works Group

APSE Energy Associate, Alan Barber outlined the support that APSE Energy can provide in measuring scope 3 emissions. APSE Energy is able to put scope 3 emissions reports together for local authorities using data from a range of different sources, in addition to our consultancy work around scope 1 and 2 emissions.
