Carbon Analysis

Reduce Carbon and Enhance Sustainability

Empower your teams to design with carbon intelligence.

Carbon Analysis, part of iTwin Experience, helps designers and engineers create more sustainable infrastructure by integrating carbon assessment directly into the design process. With 3D visualization of embodied carbon and seamless reporting integrations with EC3 and One Click LCA, teams can calculate, compare, and communicate their carbon impact with confidence.

Since most embodied carbon is determined early in the design process, Carbon Analysis enables professionals to act when it matters most, before carbon becomes locked in, supporting data-driven decisions and whole-lifecycle sustainability.

Why Carbon Analysis?

Calculate

Transform your design data into actionable carbon insights. Automatically calculate embodied carbon across lifecycle stages (A1–A3) using live data.

Visualize

Bring your carbon footprint to life in 3D. Use web-based heatmaps and charts to pinpoint hotspots and accelerate decisions.

Optimize

Compare design alternatives to lower emissions. Simulate materials, methods, and design options to identify low-carbon solutions early.
