Description

A Pre-Procurement Notice from the Climate Change Committee (CCC) Background on the CCC The Climate Change Committee (CCC) is an independent, statutory body established under the Climate Change Act 2008. Our purpose is to advise the UK and devolved governments on emissions targets and to report to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for and adapting to the impacts of climate change. Part of the CCC's role is to advise the Government on the appropriate level for each carbon budget - a cap on the amount of greenhouse gases emitted in the UK over a five-year period. The budgets describe the cost-effective pathway to achieving the UK's long-term climate change objectives. They take account of economic, social and technological factors. We are in the early stages of our work programme for the Seventh Carbon Budget (the period from 2038-2042). As part of this we would like to update our pathways for emission reductions from wastewater treatment. ****** See attachment for more detail ********
