· ALCBT MRV TOOLAn interactive Monitoring, Reporting & Verification platform for the upfront A1–A3 carbon locked into new buildings across five Asian economies — built for policymakers, NDC teams and programme partners.
alcbt-dashboard.pages.dev
The five ALCBT countries are urbanising at record pace. Every new building locks in upfront A1–A3 carbon the day it goes up.
The A1–A3 carbon in concrete and steel is largely unregulated, unmeasured — and impossible to retrofit away once built.
The MRV Tool models embodied A1–A3 carbon across materials, three scenarios and 46 years — so policymakers can test what cuts it.
No installation, no license. Open the dashboard, choose your jurisdiction, and read embodied A1–A3 carbon pathways grounded in RICS, GCCA, LESS and IEA data.
product-stage scope — cement, steel, concrete & more
scenarios — BAU, Energy Efficiency & Net Zero
countries with comparable, harmonised baselines
years of projections, 2025 → 2070, per country & type
Test how material standards and green-procurement rules bend the embodied-carbon curve before committing to them.
Get a consistent A1–A3 scope and documented assumptions for credible embodied-carbon emission-reduction accounting.
Quantify the embodied savings that justify the EUR 140M investment target and direct capital to the highest-impact materials.
A shared, transparent evidence base for training and the 51 entities targeted to adopt low-carbon-building tools.
All-country embodied pathway summary — A1–A3 emissions and floor area 2025–2070, with each country's savings potential.
The embodied A1–A3 pathway with interactive material sliders for cement, steel and concrete ambition.
NDC targets, embodied-carbon benchmarks (LETI / RICS) and material-standard roadmaps by country.
Every formula, scope boundary, data source and assumption — documented for transparent reporting.
The consortium behind the data — IKI (donor, BMUKN) · GGGI (lead) · HEAT (MRV developer) · ACE · EESL — and the programme's 2028 targets.
KPI tiles plus the embodied A1–A3 trajectory, with shaded savings potential per country.
Filter by country, building type and stock to frame the scale of action.
A1–A3 = floor area × material intensity × construction rate, projected to 2070.
Five harmonised baselines; floor area grows 1.5–2%/yr compound (NITI Aayog · UN DESA).
The embodied A1–A3 pathway by scenario, with a 2025-baseline country comparison.
Compare BAU, Energy Efficiency and Net Zero to see how far material policy bends the curve.
Embodied = floor area × A1–A3 intensity × 2% construction rate ÷ 1000 = MtCO₂e/yr.
A1–A3 intensities from RICS, WorldGBC & ALCBT estimates; 50-year annualisation.
Material ambition for cement, steel and concrete at 2030 / 2040 / 2050.
Set ambition to None, Moderate, GCCA/LESS Net-Zero or Custom; read the materials-split trend instantly.
Each slider applies a compound annual reduction to that material's A1–A3 intensity.
Baselines: cement 0.59 tCO₂/t · steel 1.85 tCO₂/t · concrete 0.13 kgCO₂/kg.
Embodied benchmarks (LETI <400, Paris-aligned <200 kgCO₂e/m²) and GCCA / LESS material roadmaps set the ambition; NDCs and national codes set the context. Sources: UNFCCC NDC Registry · RICS Whole Life Carbon · WorldGBC · IEA WEO 2023.
Floor Area × EC intensity × 2% construction rate ÷ 1000 = MtCO₂e/yr.
Upfront A1–A3 material carbon spread across a 50-year building lifetime.
Split by cement, steel, concrete & other — each with its own reduction roadmap.
Scope limits and proxies stated openly: top-down estimates for planning, cross-checked against bottom-up stock models.
The baseline table — floor area, material intensity and source per country and building type.
Live from the ALCBT Building Stock Model; India validated against GOBS v1.0 within 5%.
NITI Aayog 2025 · GGGI India Scenario 2025 · RICS Whole Life Carbon · UN DESA 2024.
Every scenario and slider inherits these inputs — change the baseline, the whole 2070 pathway updates.
Translate a national net-zero ambition into an embodied-carbon pathway and a defensible 2030 / 2040 / 2050 material milestone set.
Show which lever — cement, steel or concrete — delivers the most embodied savings per decade, and sequence reform accordingly.
Frame the embodied savings potential that anchors the programme's investment case, then monitor progress against a transparent baseline.
