What the plan is
This is Renfrewshire Council's 4th Carbon Management Plan (CMP). This CMP is a strategic document that outlines Renfrewshire Council's (including OneRen) approach to reducing its carbon emissions.
The Carbon Management Plan includes:
- Purpose and Goals: The CMP sets out our commitment to reducing carbon emissions, aligning with our broader sustainability goals such as working towards net zero emissions by 2030.
- Baseline Emissions: It includes an assessment of the current carbon footprint, detailing the sources of emissions (such as energy use, transportation, waste).
- Reduction Strategies: The plan outlines specific actions and projects aimed at reducing emissions. This includes energy efficiency measures, waste reduction strategies and committing to increase the use of on-site renewable energy.
- CMP Targets and interim milestones: The CMP will include an overall reduction target. This will be calculated from planned, tangible projects with annual milestones to monitor progress within each carbon reduction category.
- Monitoring and Reporting: The CMP includes mechanisms for tracking progress and reporting on emissions reductions, ensuring transparency and accountability.
Stakeholder Engagement: Engaging with stakeholders, including employees, school staff and pupils to ensure broad support and participation in carbon reduction efforts.
