Hestia-AKL: An Inventory of Fossil Fuel CO2 Emissions for Auckland, New Zealand
Timothy Hilton
and 6 more
December 13, 2021
The largest city in New Zealand, Auckland is home to roughly 1.5 million people -- one third of New Zealand's population. Here we assemble a bottom-up inventory of Auckland's fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions from a variety of data sources. We use these emissions estimates in combination with the UrbanVPRM land surface model to estimate the net carbon balance of the region. This work is part of the larger CarbonWatch NZ project, which aims to produce estimates of New Zealand's net carbon balance quickly enough to assess and refine ongoing national efforts to reach carbon neutrality.
