How Carbon Management is Becoming a Strategic Requirement on New Large Complex Projects
In our new Expert Corner paper 2020-02 ‘How Carbon Management is Becoming a Strategic Requirement on New Large Complex Projects‘, Sylvain Richer de Forges exposes how important carbon footprint becomes for large complex projects.
Managing carbon on a LCP has shifted significantly from a low priority to the point of becoming the very nature of future Large, Complex projects. This can also be seen with the rapid rise of renewables or carbon capture megaprojects.
The project full lifecycle carbon footprint is now a key decision criteria between options and solutions. It is not easy to calculate this comprehensive footprint taking into account procurement, manufacturing, construction, operating and decommissioning activities.
The paper also presents a systematic approach to carbon management on projects under the acronym AROTAD:
- Accurate assessment of carbon emissions
- Carbon reduction action plan
- carbon Offsetting and Trading
- carbon Analysis
- carbon Disclosure
While a significant challenge, carbon management presents an unprecedented opportunity for LCPs in the 21st century.
