Westminster City Council King Street Low Carbon Trial

The carbon for operations was negligible at just 0.02t for the whole scheme, which was because all the plant was electric.

Travel also saw a large reduction of over 70% as all staff and visitors could only come to site by walking or cycling if they were close, public transport or electric vehicles.

Whereas the deliveries accounted for 1.23t which was a 60% saving against Marlborough Hill since most vehicles were fuelled by HVO instead of diesel. However, we have still assumed that HVO has a carbon footprint 50% of diesel.

The total carbon used on both King Street and Marlborough Hill is shown in the table on page 35:
