In 2022, the Zero Carbon Whitby Costing Study was completed as per the recommendation of the Council approved Zero Carbon Whitby Plan. The Study developed a more detailed implementation plan for Whitby to achieve its carbon budget and reach zero emissions by 2045.

Description

The Costing Study provides a schedule and incremental budget for the Zero Carbon Whitby Plan that optimizes the Town’s corporate carbon budget with its existing capital budget and asset management plans. The estimated total incremental cost of this work between 2022 and 2045 will be $63.7 million. In return, over the same period it is estimated to provide $75.3 million in total savings and avoided costs.
