Scottish Climate Intelligence Service

The Scottish Climate Intelligence Service (SCIS) is a capacity-building programme with both a national digital platform and a support service co-designed with its stakeholders. The digital platform will collate area-wide emissions data to build a baseline, calculating and visualising the emissions reduction impact of projects and actions taken by local authorities to help deliver their own area-wide emissions reduction strategies. The service aspect of the SCIS will support local authorities in building the skills, knowledge, and influence to use this data to enable planning, monitoring and delivery of climate action at the scale and pace required for achieving net zero targets. The SCIS is delivered by a partnership between Edinburgh Climate Change Institute, ClimateView and the Improvement Service. This partnership brings together expert knowledge and practitioner insights, a track record of successfully supporting local authorities and access to existing networks to engage stakeholders and progress actions.
