Climate Targets and Commitments Dataset
Untangle corporate decarbonization targets.

Get a critical snapshot of climate targets

Our Climate Targets and Commitments Dataset helps investors evaluate and compare companies’ decarbonization commitments. Designed to address disparities in company targets, the dataset provides a holistic picture of corporate decarbonization targets in a single, standardized view based on the publicly stated commitments of listed companies.

Evaluate company progress and engage

Get a detailed look at a company’s decarbonization targets and their credibility and compare companies in a single view to inform your engagement.

Assess transition readiness

Identify companies with targets aligned with your investment strategy and better understand issuer- and portfolio-level transition progress. 

Simplify reporting and regulatory alignment

Use normalized and comparable data to help you align with regulations or voluntary frameworks such as ISSB/TCFD disclosures.

How we evaluate company climate commitments

Our Climate Targets and Commitments Dataset illustrates the aggregate projected reduction in carbon emissions a company has pledged to achieve each year.

The dataset is designed to address the disparity in corporate decarbonization targets: While some companies aim to achieve net-zero emissions across their entire carbon footprint, others map their targets to only a partial footprint.

Our target scorecard looks at climate commitments based on:

Comprehensiveness

What share of the company’s emissions does the target address?

  • Type
  • Unit
  • Target scopes
  • Effective coverage expressed as percentage of company’s carbon footprint covered by targets.
Ambition

By how much and how quickly does a target aim to reduce emissions?

  • Projected annual reduction
  • Target year end
  • Intention to use carbon offsets
Target indicators
  • Self-declared net-zero target
  • Near net-zero 2050 / 2030
Feasibility

How feasible is a target and how confident can investors be the company will achieve it?

  • SBTI commitments
  • Track record of meeting previous targets
  • Progress on active targets

Sharpen your view of climate progress

The dataset shows drivers of carbon emissions and helps investors evaluate corporate climate targets based on their comprehensiveness, ambition and feasibility.
