Carbon tools
Try our online construction carbon calculator for estimates of annual carbon savings and costs of low carbon technologies in new buildings.
The Atkins Remediation Options Carbon Calculator (ROCC) assesses the carbon dioxide emissions associated with a range of land remediation options as part of environmental sustainability considerations.
Atkins has developed a comprehensive suite of carbon tools to help organisations decide how to reduce carbon (both embodied and operational carbon). Included are roadmaps, a knowledgebase, masterplanning and travel behaviour tools.
