Clinical Trial Carbon Calculator
The calculator is free to use and makes use of carbon footprint methodology and data contained within the Clinical Trials Carbon Footprinting: Guidance Document. It uses a step-wise process to sum carbon from a number of separate activities (modules) associated with design, management and operation to estimate the overall carbon footprint (kgCO2e) of a trial.
Such calculations can be used to appraise the relative materiality of different activities and guide users to where greatest opportunity exists for reducing the carbon footprint of clinical research
This Clinical Trials Carbon Calculator has been produced to help provide a rapid and simple means to produce some indicative numbers on carbon emissions associated with trials. It should not be seen as a surrogate for a full assessment in accordance with the Clinical Trials Framework.
