Guidance Document For PAS 2080

This guidance document accompanies the revised PAS 2080 standard for managing and reducing carbon in the built environment.

PAS 2080, the world’s first specification for managing whole-life carbon in infrastructure, was updated in 2023 to respond to the urgency of the climate emergency and to consider the wider built environment.

This guidance document helps every organisation involved in a project to understand the carbon-related impact of their assets on the wider network. Using a wide range of case studies and worked examples, this is a comprehensive guide that organisations can use to take a whole-life view of carbon reduction. By identifying the roles and responsibilities of all participants in the project value chain, it brings transparency to every stage of the lifecycle.
