Systems-Based Emissions Intelligence
World Emission Network (WEN) develops activity-based, system-wide emissions intelligence to guide practical climate and air quality solutions. We map underlying human and economic activities—energy use, transport flows, industrial production, agricultural burning, and household fuel consumption—and translate them into spatially and temporally resolved emissions profiles.
Rather than analyzing emissions in isolation, WEN models how activities interact across sectors and boundaries, identifying structural drivers and high-impact intervention points.
How We Work
🔹 Activity Data Mapping
Quantify fuel use, freight movement, production output, land-use change, and household energy demand to build source-linked emissions inventories.
🔹 High-Resolution Spatial Analysis
Develop ward-, district-, and city-scale emission maps with seasonal and temporal differentiation.
🔹 System-Level Integration
Link energy systems, infrastructure, informal economies, and regulatory frameworks into a unified emissions model.
🔹 Cross-Boundary Modeling
Assess both in-boundary and transboundary contributions to reveal true pollution drivers.
🔹 Solution Pathway Evaluation
Simulate how policy, technology transitions, and behavioral changes alter emissions across the entire system—not just within administrative silos.
Solution-Oriented Climate Intelligence
Air pollution and climate risk are system-wide challenges. Effective solutions require identifying where emissions originate, how they move, and which interventions deliver measurable reductions.
WEN’s approach ensures strategies are grounded in real activity data, aligned across sectors, and capable of producing sustained, system-level impact.
