Proposal for a standard/guideline for Zero Emissions Construction Sites (ZECS) with a life cycle perspective. For cities with ambitious climate plan

1. ZERO EMISSIONS CONSTRUCTION SITE
Because +25% of a city GHG emissions can come from construction sites and is
often unaccounted for
Tethered
construction
equipments (-77%
GHGs LCA)
Battery powered
construction
equipements (-60%
GHGs LCA)
Advanced Biofuels powered construction
equipements (-80% GHGs LCA)
Inspirational Standards:
1. Oil Subsea Standards
2. IEC 62133 battery certification
3. ISO 14044:2006 LCA

Aim: To help construction sites
achieve zero emissions locally, by
using Best Available Technologies
and existing standards
Target group: Construction
Equipment manufacturers,
construction companies, cities with
aggressive carbon neutral
strategies.
Team up! Research Institutes of
Sweden (RISE) is a research and
innovation partner. We are looking
for industry and research partners
for a 3-6 months pre-study.
