C4.1b - Scoring criteria


Disclosure scoring criteria

The following columns must all be completed to score 7 points:

- Scope
- % of emissions in scope
- Targeted % reduction from base year
- Base year
- Start year
- Target year
- Normalized baseline year emissions covered by target (metric tons CO2e)
- % change anticipated in absolute Scope 1+2 emissions"(col 14) if any of Scope 1 + /OR 2 options selected in column "Scope"
- % change anticipated in absolute Scope 3 emissions (col 15) if any of the 'Scope 3' options are selected in column "Scope"

Columns 2-8 must all be complete to be eligible for additional points in the following columns:

- Is this a science-based target? - 1 point
- % of target achieved - 1 point
- Target status - 1 point
- Please explain - 1 point


Awareness scoring criteria

At least 7 Disclosure points must have been scored to be eligible for Awareness points. "Start year" must not be before "Base year".

If:

i) "Target year" is 5 years or more than "Start year" - 2 points

ii) "Is this a science-based target?" is:

- Yes, and this target has been approved as science-based by the Science Based Targets initiative – 1 point
- Yes, we consider this a science-based target, but this target has not been approved as science-based by the Science-Based Targets initiative – 1 point
- No, but we are reporting another target which is science-based – 1 point
- No, but we anticipate setting one in the next 2 years – 1 point
- No, and we do not anticipate setting one in the next 2 years – 0 points

iii) "% of target achieved" is greater than 0

OR

"Status" is "New" AND "Start year" is the same as the reporting year as disclosed in C0.2 - 2 points


Management scoring criteria

If

i) The target(s) has(/have) been verified by the Science Based Target Initiative's official target quality check - 2 points

OR

If all criteria below are met - 2 points:

- "% of emissions in scope" is '70% or higher' for Scope 1 + 2 emissions
- "Target year" is between 5 and 15 years more than the "Start year" inclusive
- The answer in C6.4 is "No" OR for C6.4a the relevance columns for the scope of the target are one of the following:

- No emissions excluded
- No emissions from this source
- Emissions are not relevant
- Emissions excluded due to recent acquisition


If any relevant exclusions are reported in C6.4a - maximum 1/3 points

ii) If all of criteria (i) have been met in one row, additional points available if:

-"Start year" is the same as the Reporting year as disclosed in C0.2 AND "Target Status" is "New" - 1 point

OR

- "Start year" is BEFORE the Reporting year as disclosed in C0.2 AND the "% of target achieved" is greater than the percentage of time from "Start year" - 2 points


Leadership scoring criteria

If:

i) The target(s) has/have been verified by the Science Based Target Initiative's official target quality check - 3 points
