This project will see the creation of a data-driven digital solution to accelerate the roadmap to net zero in tourism in places across the UK, enabling them to benefit from the market opportunity presented by green travel. The software will support holiday properties to effectively manage their carbon emissions in a single system that connects with their property management. They will use the novel software to calculate the per stay carbon emissions of their property, track changes to their property emissions and identify their most cost-effective pathway to net zero. Network analysis will be used to identify specific place-based drivers to accelerate the net-zero tourism pathway of places.The solution will utilise emissions data, industry data from hospitality and transport, and renewable energy project data, among others, to create a recommendation engine that supports holiday properties to identify the most cost-effective path to reducing their emissions, reaching net zero, and even achieving net negative emissions, for example by generating on-site renewable energy that is sold back to the grid or by implementing regenerative land management practices on-site that store carbon. The software will gather user data to monitor per stay carbon emissions and utilise a bespoke recommendation engine, which will be trained on user data to improve recommendations and use advanced analytics to optimise the recommendations according to place-specific data.Ecosy Travel is the project lead. It is a certified social enterprise and pending B Corp dedicated to reducing the climate impact of travel & tourism. It will partner with a consortium of sustainable holiday properties to deliver the project, all of which are potential users of the emissions management software. Ecosy will work closely with them, employing a user-focused innovation approach, to design and develop the software in line with their specific needs and pain points.The emissions management software will connect directly with Ecosy's consumer facing green travel booking platform, supporting responsible consumption and making net zero living that much easier for travellers. It will connect low-carbon places with eco-conscious travellers so that places on the path to net zero can benefit from the market opportunity of being a green travel destination.The project will also explore how best to connect into the consumer facing platform, supporting management of property availability and showcasing other key indicators for sustainable properties such as availability of electric charge points, being a women-owned business and accessibility.

该项目将创建一个数据驱动的数字解决方案，以加快英国各地旅游业净零排放的路线图，使他们能够从绿色旅行带来的市场机会中受益。该软件将支持度假酒店在与其物业管理相连的单一系统中有效管理其碳排放。他们将使用这款新颖的软件来计算其酒店的每次住宿碳排放量，跟踪其酒店排放量的变化，并确定实现净零排放的最具成本效益的途径。网络分析将用于确定特定的地方驱动因素，以加速地方的净零旅游路径。该解决方案将利用排放数据、酒店和运输行业数据以及可再生能源项目数据等来创建建议支持度假酒店确定最具成本效益的减少排放、实现净零排放、甚至实现净负排放的引擎，例如通过产生现场可再生能源并将其卖回电网或实施再生土地储存碳的现场管理实践。该软件将收集用户数据以监控每次住宿的碳排放量，并利用定制推荐引擎，该引擎将根据用户数据进行培训以改进推荐，并使用高级分析根据特定地点的数据优化推荐。Ecosy Travel 是该项目的负责人。它是一家经过认证的社会企业和待定的共益企业，致力于减少旅行和旅游业对气候的影响。它将与可持续度假酒店联盟合作交付该项目，所有这些酒店都是排放管理软件的潜在用户。 Ecosy将与他们紧密合作，采用以用户为中心的创新方法，根据他们的具体需求和痛点设计和开发软件。排放管理软件将直接与Ecosy面向消费者的绿色旅行预订平台连接，支持负​​责任的消费让旅行者的净零生活变得更加轻松。它将低碳场所与具有生态意识的旅行者联系起来，使净零之路上的地方能够从成为绿色旅游目的地的市场机会中受益。该项目还将探索如何最好地连接到面向消费者的平台，支持管理财产可用性，并展示可持续财产的其他关键指标，例如充电点的可用性、女性拥有的企业和可达性。
