For rail to truly achieve its net zero ambitions, aligning carbon data and accounting across the entire industry and supply chain is crucial. By standardising carbon accounting, we can pinpoint emissions hotspots, prioritise effective interventions, and track progress with precision. We are working on tools and guidance to form the Rail Carbon Accounting Framework (RCAF). By harmonising carbon data now, the rail industry can set a powerful benchmark for other sectors while fulfilling its commitments to both passengers and the environment. Interested in learning how we can align targets across infrastructure managers, operators, and suppliers to meet science-based goals?
