Reducing our Embodied Carbon
►

►
►
This is an ORR and CP5 Objective
We have three pilot projects to test an Embodied Carbon
tool
Southern – Embankment Stabilisation
Central – East West Rail Phase 2
RSAR – Elevated railway
The trial will run from the April 22nd to July 31st 2014
The outcomes and lessons learnt from the trial will be
communicated to the S&SD Executive Committee in
August 2014.
/
Reducing our Embodied Carbon
These trials are the first stepping stones in our approach of
a phased implementation plan to reduce our embodied
carbon
► Stage 1 – Trial the tool on 3 projects, lessons learnt
► Stage 2 – Create process / set project selection criteria
► Stage 3 (Aug 2013) run carbon tool on 10 projects
► Stage 4 – Refine process and selection criteria
► Stage 5 (April 2015) – Embed the embodied carbon tool
into Business as Usual Processes

Timber KPI update
Timber KPI will be rolled out in Period 4.
Contractors will need to input data including:

A component of our sustainable timber policy is to procure
track timber from credibly certified sources in accordance
with standards set by the WWF Global Forest Trade
Network (GFTN)
GFTN membership willI build a positive corporate image
and ensure reliable sources of wood for Network Rail.
