Solving the challenges of monitoring and reporting local climate action
Anthesis Impact Tracker is a digital platform, designed for local authorities, to accelerate climate action by enhancing monitoring, reporting and decision-making within, and beyond, your organisation.
The platform enables local government organisations to track and communicate climate action progress, and access a range of impact-based data, to see what’s happening on the ground, in a single, intuitive tool.

Launching Anthesis Impact Tracker: Accelerating Local Climate Action
Join Anthesis and CDP to hear how we are working to tackle the challenges of monitoring and reporting the impacts of climate action, explore best practice, and mark the launch of the Anthesis Impact Tracker digital reporting platform.
Review your action progress and impact
Built in consultation with working group local authorities from across the UK, the Anthesis Impact Tracker will enable you to efficiently monitor climate actions undertaken, track their impacts, and share progress updates both internally and externally.
Track progress against your action plan or strategy
Host your local climate action plan on the tool for consultation, task management, and reporting:
- Simple upload process, allowing the tool to adapt to the structure of your plan
- Action plans are visualised by key impact areas or themes, such as renewables, built environment, transportation, or biodiversity
- Track metrics such as task progress, deadlines and stakeholder responsibility to enable progress management
- Allow partner stakeholders access, sharing responsibility for data management
Monitor the impact of your actions
Gain immediate access to a range of data through which the impact of local climate initiatives can be reviewed. Data ranges from building stock performance, renewable generation, and land management, through to macro scale emissions data:
- More than forty preloaded Key Performance Indicators tracking local climate action progress included as default, with further additions planned
- Manipulate and export all datasets to gain further insight
- Add and visualise new datasets from your own organisation using an intuitive upload template
- Interact with the data- choose which datasets are visible to your audience, view additional metadata, and more
Engage internal and external stakeholders
The tool is designed to enable quick insights throughout, and fosters collaboration by enabling a range of stakeholder to visit and interact:
- Use the Dashboard page to view a summary of key data from across the tool
- Customise which metrics are shared with your chosen audience
- Assign permissions to colleagues, external partners, and more, according to role
- Compare your performance to other local authorities
Supporting your compliance and reporting requirements
Anthesis Impact Tracker has been developed by the Anthesis’ Cities and Regions team, the experts behind the SCATTER greenhouse gas reporting tool, used by 80% of UK local authorities, and Area Based Insetting, an innovative alternative to traditional offsetting for UK Local Governments.

Supporting climate action monitoring and reporting
We have supported a range of local authorities with the development of climate action plans and frameworks through which to monitor impact, including:
Our broader experience
In the past 3 years, we have supported over 30 local authorities by providing GHG baselines, climate pathways analysis, mitigation and adaptation focussed action plans and strategies, business and community engagement support, and more.
Our clients include:
From the team that brought you SCATTER and Area Based Insetting
We are the developers of the BEIS-funded SCATTER tool, which is free to use for all local authorities and provides a calculated area-wide GHG inventory and future emissions scenario model.
We are also leading a consortium of local authorities to develop Area Based Insetting, a framework supporting the implementation of carbon-saving projects locally. This will help local authorities meet their net-zero targets, stimulate greater investment in the area, and increase collaboration between stakeholders.
In the past 3 years, we supported over 30 local authorities by providing climate risk assessments, adaptation and mitigation action plans and strategies, GHG baselines, and carbon reduction trajectories.
An interactive greenhouse gas reporting tool for local authorities to assess, report and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Area Based Insetting
Area Based Insetting enbles local authorities to deliver more carbon saving projects locally.
