Science-Based Targets, Simplified through Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)
Navigating the complexities of SBTi criteria to set, validate, and achieve rigorous carbon reduction targets that align with the 1.5°C pathway
Why SBTi?
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a partnership between CDP, the UN Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI), and the WWF. It defines and promotes best practices in emissions reductions in line with climate science.
Why it matters for your business:
Investor Confidence: Institutional investors increasingly demand SBTi-validated targets as a prerequisite for ESG performance.
Regulatory Readiness: Future-proof your operations against tightening global carbon reporting mandates (like CSRD and SEC rules).
Supply Chain Leadership: Large multinationals now require their Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers to have science-based targets.
Brand Integrity: Eliminate greenwashing risks by using a third-party, scientifically verified framework.
Our approach to SBTi
Carbon Footprint Baseline
We act as your technical partner from data collection through to official validation.
01
We conduct a comprehensive Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG inventory to ensure your data meets the strict SBTi boundary requirements.
02
Modeling & Target Setting
Using SBTi-approved methodologies, we model various reduction scenarios & help choose between Near-Term, Long-Term, and Net-Zero targets.
03
Submission & Validation Support
We manage the technical documentation, respond to SBTi’s official queries, and help through the submission process.
04
The Decarbonization Roadmap
We develop a practical implementation roadmap, identifying specific energy efficiency, renewable energy, and value-chain interventions.
