- Thu 15:33An easier path - The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has updated the methodology companies use to set absolute emissions reduction targets as part of its Corporate Net-Zero Standard Version 2, set to be published this summer. Now, 2030 targets require a significantly less steep trajectory across all three scopes, with reductions spread more consistently out to 2050 rather than overly concentrated in the near term, it said. Under the previous framework, companies needed to cut total GHG emissions by a fixed percentage (translating to c. 42%) by 2030, regardless of how much progress a company had already made. Now, for companies setting a new five-year near-term target from 2025 to 2030, the minimum reductions equate to around 21% for Scope 1, 33% for Scope 2, and 21% for Scope 3. (edie.net)
