A London case study dataset applying the PAS 2070 British Standard for city-level greenhouse gas emissions assessment. It includes the full case study data, source documentation, a verification report, and unique source data not publicly available elsewhere, such as specific emissions factors and activity data for aviation, railways, navigation, and waste. The dataset was published by the Greater London Authority and was last updated on March 25, 2026.
Use Cases
- Modeling city-scale Scope 3 emissions based on the described consumption-based methodology.
- Applying standardized emissions factors (e.g., Defra DECC 2012) to local activity data for sectors like aviation and waste.
- Verifying compliance with the PAS 2070 standard for greenhouse gas emissions assessment.
- Analyzing transportation emissions from specific sectors like aviation, railways, and navigation based on the listed source data.
Strengths
- Includes a verification report confirming compliance with the PAS 2070 British Standard.
- Publishes unique source data not available elsewhere, such as specific aviation activity and waste water returns.
- Provides source documentation with weblinks to publicly available data.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
