Resource
The My 2050 carbon calculator lets you take control and create your own energy pathway for the country. The calculator allows you to consider the choices and trade-offs we face. It covers all parts of the economy and all greenhouse gas emissions released in the UK.
You choose your ‘levels of ambition’ for decarbonising different parts of the energy system, and the calculator then shows how your choices affect UK emissions expressed as ‘carbon dioxide equivalent’ (CO2e).
My 2050: Create your pathway to a low-carbon UK by 2050
Find your pathway to reduce UK greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2050 (-100% in the CO2e meter) by:
- Choosing your level of ambition from 1 (minimum effort) to 4 (extreme effort) for each of the levers of decarbonisation at the bottom.
- Limiting the number of extreme level 4s you need to just a few that you think are most important.
