2 Our mission is to accelerate the move to a low carbon economy 3 3 We deliver tangible results We have: Helped our customers cut 30 Mt CO 2 Established the Carbon Trust Standard and Carbon Reduction Label Pioneered energy efficiency loans: 71m interest-free loans offered to SMEs during 2009/10 Launched 350 million fund for low carbon refurbishments of commercial buildings 3bn in energy cost savings for our customers since

3 Our activities span multiple areas Specialist advice and finance Standards and accreditation Investing in early stage low carbon companies over 10 years Founded in 2001 Developed PAS 2050 and Footprint Expert guidance and tools Global leader in product carbon footprint certification UKAS accredited, independent and impartial Dedicated team of certification professionals 6 5-3

6 Agenda Introduction to the Carbon Trust PAS2050 origins i and development Practical application: labels and certificates Examples 11 The world s CO2 flows are aligned with flows of goods and commodities Total Flows 2004 Data (GtCO 2 ) % Other 2.4 3% 10. Europe to North America 2.2 4% 9. Rest of Asia to North America 2.0 4% 8. Africa to Europe 1.8 4% 7. China to Japan 1.6 4% 6. North America to Europe 1.4 5% 5. Rest of Asia to Europe 1.2 6% 4. Russia to Europe % 3. China to Rest of Asia 0.6 8% 2. China to Europe 0.4 ~50% of the carbon flows are in commodities and ~50% in products % 1. China to North America Note: Rest of Asia excludes China, Japan and India Data includes flow of Scope 1-3 (direct, indirect and upstream) emissions arising in region of export that are embodied in trade flows to the region of import Source: Carbon Trust Analysis; CICERO / SEI / CMU GTAP7 EEBT Model

7 By 2025, the UK s imports could have as much carbon embodied as its domestic production Emissions (MtCO 2 ) 1, % 17% 25% 31% 36% 43% 49% (7%) (20%) (34%) (42-45%) (50-56%) (61-74%) (73-96%) CAGR (92-25) Consumption (low decarbonisation world) 1.0% Consumption (high decarbonisation world) 0.7% Net imports 7-8% Production (0.9%) Note 1: Declining UK production emissions based on CO 2 reduction involved in UK achieving 2020 carbon budget for CO 2e reduction of 34% vs 1990 levels (Committee on Climate Change) Note 2: Growth in imported emissions based on continuation of historic growth in UK trade balance, and varying degrees of decarbonisation in the exporting countries. In the high world decarbonisation scenario it is assumed that the emissions intensity of exports from Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC nations) decline in line with the targets noted in the Copenhagen Accord (2009), that exports from the EU and other Annex I nations decline in line with the EU s target to reduce emissions by 20% from , and that exports from the rest of the world achieve decarbonisation of the order of half that achieve in the BRIC countries. In the low decarbonisation scenario is assumed that the EU hits its targets as stated in the high decarbonisation scenario, that all other Annex I nations and the BRIC nations achieve half the level of decarbonisation as in the high decarbonisation scenario, and that the rest of the world does not decarbonise at all Source: Carbon Trust Analysis 13 PAS 2050 is the world s first published standard PAS 2050 WRI/WBCSD ISO EU Methodology = published = review published Sustainability Consortium

13 Consumer carbon consciousness is growing 56% of UK consumers say they would be more loyal to a brand if they could see that it was taking steps to reduce its carbon footprint 45% of UK consumers say they would be prepared to stop buying their favourite brands if they refused to commit to measuring their product's carbon footprint Source: Carbon Trust research, March % of say they are more likely to buy labelled goods of identical quality 1 in 5 say they would buy a labelled product even if it cost more! Source: Carbon Trust research, March
