Skanska UK has developed a low carbon roadmap
The roadmap sets out how Skanska UK will reduce carbon emissions. It is based on whole-life principles, which means it looks at how to cut our own impact, and that of the supply chain, together with reducing legacy emissions of assets (such as infrastructure and buildings). Legacy emissions are those produced from the ultimate end-

Six focus areas
The focus areas of the low carbon roadmap are:
- Targets and measurements
Improving carbon measurement and target-setting at all levels, ensuring that reducing carbon emissions also leads to reduced costs. - Estimating and design
Continually embedding low carbon principles into the way we estimate and design, particularly utilising data driven whole-life principles. - Commercial and financial
Developing financial and commercial solutions that promote collaboration across the supply chain and incentivising a low carbon approach, particularly over the whole life of a project or asset. - Plant and transport
Cutting the carbon emissions of our plant and transport as fast as technology allows. - Collaboration
Collaborating with our supply chain to develop and procure lower carbon materials. - Asset management
Managing assets – such as buildings or infrastructure – in ways that reduce carbon emissions.
