Sustainability and net zero urban planning

We didn't jump on the net zero bandwagon - we helped build it.

Too often, sustainability in urban planning is an afterthought - a box-ticking exercise rather than a core design driver - and commitments are made to net zero without tools to assess progress. Developers face sustainability requirements without clear pathways to compliance, and climate offers struggle to translate climate science into actionable spatial planning.

CityCAD Technologies can help bridge this gap, by providing consultancy that combines analysis of energy, resources and carbon with practical 3D urban models. Integrated analysis of embodied and operational carbon has been a core feature of CityCAD since its launch in 2008.

Sustainability masterplan analysis delivers measurable outcomes and informs masterplan designs from the earliest stages. It gives you the opportunity to refine your design to optimize environmental performance, instead of just creating another report to file away.

We have previously worked with major consultancies to integrate CityCAD with advanced carbon modelling techniques and databases. Contact us to discuss how we can help you embed climate intelligence into your planning and development processes.
