ClimateView provides a digital platform that helps local authorities design, manage, and deliver systemic climate action. At its core is the Transition Engine, a science-based modelling system that translates climate goals into practical, measurable Activity Shifts – the changes in areas such as energy, transport, housing, and waste that underpin net zero.
Through the platform, local authorities can:
- Build evidence-based climate action plans structured around Activity Shifts.
- Model scenarios in real time to understand costs, trade-offs, and co-benefits.
- Design interventions that make those shifts happen and connect them with expected outcomes.
- Track and communicate progress with clarity, supporting councillors, officers, funders, and residents.
- Follow a clear process for creating and implementing climate plans
Impact is measured by showing how planned Activity Shifts align with official greenhouse gas inventories, standardized datasets, and performance indicators. Authorities can identify the scale of change needed, understand the financial and social implications, and maintain a clear line of sight between interventions, systemic shifts, and long-term climate goals – all in one place.
ClimateView supports all local authorities, regardless of size, resources, or level of climate planning maturity. Our platform provides a consistent, science-based structure that can be applied universally, whether by single officers in smaller councils or full sustainability teams in larger metropolitan areas. By offering a shared framework and data-driven methodology, ClimateView enables every authority to design actionable plans, align with national targets, and track progress in a transparent and comparable way.
Scotland & the Scottish Climate Intelligence Service (SCIS)
Challenge: Scotland’s 32 local authorities were working from different datasets and methods, making it difficult to align efforts, compare progress, or build consistent climate strategies. Without a shared system, authorities struggled to coordinate across local and national levels.
Intervention: ClimateView, working with the Scottish Climate Intelligence Service, introduced Transition Element Framework (TEF) as a common foundation and connected all 32 local authorities to a unified emissions dataset through the Scottish Area-Wide Inventory. This provided a shared language and consistent structure for developing, comparing, and tracking climate actions.
Outcome: Authorities across Scotland now work with a standardized methodology, enabling more efficient planning and stronger alignment with national targets. This shift from static PDF plans to iterative, data-informed planning has given councils confidence to make decisions based on evidence, supported collaboration across regions, and de-risked climate action.

“The transition modelling has the potential to be groundbreaking. It fundamentally changed my team’s philosophy of how we do things.”
– Clare Wharmby, Programme Director at SCIS
“Using the ClimateView Platform allowed us to do that scientific analysis. It allowed us to go through each of those actions and bring together all of the actors within the GCC to talk to each other and work together on this.”
– Gavin Slater, Head of Sustainability, Glasgow City Council
“The ClimateView platform has value beyond progress tracking. It goes into the interventions and their combined effects. When you do one thing toward cycling, for instance, you see how it affects public transport.”
– Roy Boertien, Smart Cities Advisor, Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management in the Netherlands
