FAQ about the Decarbonisation Savings Calculator
What is the Decarbonisation Savings Calculator?
The Decarbonisation Savings Calculator estimates potential cost savings by comparing the business as usual (BAU) scenario with a reduced emissions scenario.
It highlights how emission reduction efforts can translate into financial benefits, assuming full compensation for carbon emissions. The results are indicative and should not be considered exact financial projections.
How do decarbonisation savings work?
Decarbonisation savings occur when businesses reduce their emissions, potentially avoiding future costs tied to carbon pricing or regulatory penalties.
By investing in energy efficiency or renewable energy, companies can cut costs in the long run while also reducing their carbon footprint.
What factors influence decarbonisation savings?
Several variables affect the savings from decarbonisation, such as the starting emissions baseline, the rate of emission reductions, changes in carbon pricing, and the energy sources used. Additionally, savings can depend on external factors like government policies and carbon credit markets.
How accurate are the savings estimates?
The savings estimates provided by the calculator are initial approximations. While useful for planning purposes, they do not factor in all direct and indirect costs associated with decarbonisation efforts, such as capital investments or operational changes.
