Abstract :
This paper details the results of a new approach to City CO2 modelling through successful cross collaboration in the public/private sector. Arup, the DTI funded Centre of Excellence in Low Carbon and Fuel Cell Technology (CENEX) and Sheffield City Council are working in close partnership using the Arup Impact Model for the Prediction and Assessment of CO2 from Transport (IMPACT). This Climate Alliance has recently awarded Sheffield City Council the 2007 Climate Star for their work on this project with Arup.
