ACT Assessing Low-Carbon Transition
Activities - developing and implementing methodologie- 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) to raise awareness and build 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//www.iddri.org/en/project/act-ddp-project  +

Description ACT is a joint voluntary initiative of theACT is a joint voluntary initiative of the UNFCCC secretariat Global Climate Agenda initiated by ADEME, the French Agency for Ecological Transition, and CDP, the global disclosure system. Assuming that carbon footprint doesn't allow forward looking approach to address low-carbon transition challenge and that there is no framework to assess the relevance and trustworthiness of climate commitment from the private sector, ACT is the only international initiative that creates an accountability framework and sectoral methodologies to assess how companies strategies and actions are contributing to the Paris Agreement mitigation goals. 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.strategy gaps and provide recommendations.  +

One or two success stories achieved To date ACT multistakeholders developed meTo date ACT multistakeholders developed methodologies cover: automotive manufacturing, electric utility, retail, construction, real estate, property development, transport, cement, oil & gas. A new methodology and toolbox named ACT Step by Step aims at guiding companies with low carbon strategy and action plan development and implementation. Through the French Voluntary Program an increasing number of companies are implementing ACT methodologies with funding from ADEME and technical support from a community of trained consultants. With "PME sobres en carbone", Québec Net Positif and CCG are set to build a similar local ecosystem in Québec. The World Benchmarking Alliance has now publicly published 100 ACT assessments through its Climate and Energy Benchmark, ranking 30 automobile manufacturing companies and 50 electric utility. In June 2021, 100 oil & gas companies will be assessed with the relevant ACT methodologies. https://www.worldbenchmarkingalliance.org/climate-and-energy-benchmark/alliance.org/climate-and-energy-benchmark/  +
