Zero Carbon Britain

Released in December 2019, Zero Carbon Britain: Rising to the Climate Emergency from the Centre for Alternative Technology is a significant update on the 2013 ZCB report used extensively in In Time for Tomorrow?

Building on the groundwork laid by the Zero Carbon Britain project over the last 12 years, this report incorporates the very latest developments in science and technology to show that we can create a zero carbon Britain using only proven technology.
This report shows a positive, technically feasible scenario that aims to stimulate debate and catalyse action across all areas of society.

While ZCB focuses on the UK, international collaborators may like to draw on the 2018 report Raising Ambition: Zero Carbon Scenarios from Across the Globe.

This brings together an international range of scenarios exploring climate-stable futures at global, regional, national and sub-national scales.
It collects and highlights the work of hundreds of people around the world who have developed snapshots and deep visions of possible futures.
From Tanzania to Los Angeles, South Asia to the Baltic, it offers an in-depth look at 18 case studies of scenarios, drawn from 130 scenarios modelling net zero, deep decarbonisation, and up to 100% renewable energy.
