Hi Lawrence,

I am currently work on a large rail project across the north of England. We are currently at the design stage , where we would like to understand the carbon impact of different design options. eg Embeded Carbon from built assets (capCarb)  plus operational carbon (OpCarb) from different design options eg line speed, journey time, electrification options.  Does DAFNI have any data sets that could aide the decision making of this optioneering process?

We are working with partners who are interesting in this topic.  We are looking at  a project which is looking environmental resiliance which starts later this year.   And we have other partners who aer interested in transport and air quality , energy distribution- and decarbonisation is a key issue.  DAFNI may not hold data directly,  but is a good place to link, access and bring data together from different sources  –  climate data for example.  If you would like, we could follow on this and see if we could find interested partners.

thanks

Brian
