Create a cost & carbon template in platform
From Projects > Manage Templates > Add Template
Choose your template type (cost or carbon), Title and Description
In asset information, add the assumptions for your chosen template.
Important: If you use a custom template in a Project, assessments will only successfully complete if your template includes assumption data for all asset types and sizes (kW) placed in the Project. So be careful your templates contain assumption for the assets you plan to place!
