RCDC have in depth experience with embodied carbon and whole life carbon calculations. Whether you are needing carbon assessments for planning, or are looking to achieve a net zero carbon development the team at RCDC can help.

RCDC are able to provide advice at all stages of design, with analysis on large carbon contributors being the focus at early stage. At stage 3, iterations are investigated to provide areas of potential reduction. Stage 4 focuses on ensuring all carbon decisions are tracked and the final carbon footprint is calculated in line with the RICS methodology.

RCDC can also provide Whole Life Carbon analysis, either with external or internal input for the operational energy.

Due to the complex nature of embodied and whole life carbon, RCDC focus on providing visual results to aid understanding for all involved in the project.
