Description

Description ACT– Assessing low Carbon Transition – is a joint voluntary initiative from ADEME and CDP and part of the UNFCCC secretariat Global Climate Agenda (GCA) supported by the French government since 2015.

ACT is the only international initiative that creates an “accountability framework and sectorial methodologies” to assess how companies’ strategies and actions are contributing to the Paris Agreement mitigation goals. ACT answer the need for methodologies and tools to support companies with contributing to the Paris Agreement beyond commitment and carbon footprint reporting. ACT is currently funded by EIT Climate KIC, ADEME, Life IP, FFEM.

Objectives Drive companies' climate actions by providing sectoral methodologies and tools as an accountability framework to develop, improve and assess their low-carbon strategies against relevant individual decarbonisation pathways.

Five guiding questions lead to assess company’s alignment with the low-carbon transition to 2050: 1- What is the company planning to do? 2- How is the company planning to get there? 3- What is the company doing at present? 4- What has the company done in the recent past? 5- How do all of these plans and actions fit together?

The resulting ACT rating including a performance score, narrative score and trend score, is key to understand how ready a business is to transition to a low-carbon world. The feedback report highlights company strategy gaps and provide recommendations.

Activities - developing and implementing methodologies covering all high emitter’s sectors as identified by the TCFD (non-financial sectors) and other key sectors (e.g. ICT) for transion towards a low carbon economy by 2022.

-engage and develop partnerships with the initiative key stakeholders (private sector, financial institutions, public authorities and policy makers, NGOs, other climate adaption and mitigation initiatives, academics) by opening the initiative governance, raising awareness and building capacity. - ACT - Deep Decarbonisation Pathways Project builds a methodology to evaluate and monitor companies' decarbonization strategies from a sectoral, national and bottom-up perspective to increase the collective ambition of reducing greenhouse gas in Mexico and Brazil aligned with the global objective of the Paris agreement https://www.iddri.org/en/project/act-ddp-project

One or two success stories achieved Developed, tested and implemented methodologies for Automobile manufacturing, Electric Utilities, Retail and the Building sector (Construction, Property Development and Real Estate).

Indicators
Goals Use of ACT ratings globally by companies, policy makers and financial institutions to track climate actions progress towards low-carbon world.
Comments on indicators and goals Ratings:

a) Performance score from 1 (lowest) to 20 (highest) Indicators: targets, material investment, intangible investment, performance of products, management, suppliers, clients, policy engagement, business model

b) Narrative score from E (lowest) to A (highest) Indicators: business model & strategy, consistency & credibility, reputation, risk

c) Trend score as either "+" for improving, "-" for worsening, and "=" for stable Indicators: future change in emissions; business model & strategy; any other information compiled as part of score research

The highest possible score is therefore: 20,A,+

How will goals be achieved Setting up an independent and sustainable initiative, globally coordinated with local implementation groups.
Have you changed or strenghtened your goals N/A
