Project Summary
The City of Toronto developed the Local Emissions for Net Zero (LENZ) modeling suite to evaluate policies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving net zero by 2040. LENZ models emissions from daily activities and energy use, guiding climate-related decisions. Its three components assess long-term energy evolution, optimize operational costs, and ensure alignment with the TransformTO Net Zero Strategy’s targets.
