The High-Level Decarbonisation Intervention Estimator will provide a snapshot view of the potential benefits when considering a range of decarbonisation projects at a building or site level. This will be based on a single year’s consumption on site and will not offer a future view, however, it can be used as a first step in identifying potential solutions for your building, site, or portfolio. This estimator tool comes with a user guide providing instructions for use.

High-level-decarbonisation-estimator
This estimator is designed to provide a high-level overview of a potential decarbonisation pathway based on a standard set of common interventions and benchmarks. This guidance is produced as a result of the Modern Energy Partners (MEP) programme, as part of the development of a consistent approach to assessing decarbonisation for scaled delivery.

As explained within the Theme 1 guide "Developing and Delivering Your Strategy", the High-Level Decarbonisation Intervention Estimator provides a range of key decarbonisation options, including heat, renewables, and energy efficiency, which can be applied to a building/site/portfolio. This allows for quick assessment of the potential benefits of implementing these interventions. This is aimed at organisations that are at the start of their decarbonisation journey and are looking to understand the potential benefits and costs of undertaking projects on their site, building, or portfolio.
This estimator uses the base or reference year of consumption calculated from the Business as Usual (BAU) Estimator.
