C4.3b - Scoring criteria


Disclosure scoring criteria

Points will be awarded per completed cell in proportion to the number of rows disclosed, excluding the column “Comment”. For rows with ‘No payback’ is selected in column “Payback period”, the row will not receive full points unless column "Investment required (unit currency, as specified in C0.4)" OR column “Annual monetary savings (unit currency – as specified in C0.4)” have been completed with a value of "0".


Awareness scoring criteria

At least 6 points must have been scored at Disclosure level to be eligible for points at Awareness level.

Up to 3 points will be awarded in proportion to the number of complete rows (excluding column “Annual monetary savings (unit currency – as specified in C0.4)” column “Investment required (unit currency, as specified in CC0.4)” AND column “Payback period”) that have a numerical value reported in the column "Estimated annual CO2e savings (metric tons CO2e)".

A further 3 points are available if:

- The sum of 'Estimated annual CO2e savings (metric tons CO2e)' is within 5% variance of the 'Estimated annual CO2e savings (metric tons CO2e)' for projects implemented in C4.3a - 3 points


Management scoring criteria

Full Awareness points must have been awarded to be eligible for points at Management level.

i) If column “Annual monetary savings (unit currency – as specified in C0.4), column “Investment required (unit currency, as specified in CC0.4)” AND column “Payback period” are completed for all reported rows* – 1 point

ii) For at least one Scope covered by your target (Scope 1 and 2 only) an Emission reduction initiative is reported - 1 point

*Please note column "Payback period” can only have ‘No payback’ selected if column "Investment required (unit currency, as specified in C0.4)" OR column “Annual monetary savings (unit currency – as specified in C0.4)” have been completed with a value of "0".
