Validations against SBTi’s new Corporate Net Zero Standard (CNZS) V2.0 open in February. The new Standard moves away from targets alone and towards asking businesses to map out their path to a low-carbon future. SBTi says it’s designed to be a navigation tool to manage transition risk and unlock economic benefits for the world as it actually is.
However, what does that look like in practice for a business trying to grapple with the complexities of the new Standard? The change in emphasis from targets to implementation suggests that businesses will need to think more carefully through strategy, Transition Plans and keeping communications credible.
The new Standard arrives at a time when questions on whether to set or reset an SBT have returned to Board-level conversations. For some global businesses, billions of dollars are on the line if they don’t have an SBT in place. For others, holding a validated SBT is about trust and reputation or about investor expectations on transparency and resilience. Others will find that holding a validated SBT is not right for them.
Join us for an open conversation with the CEO of SBTi, David Kennedy, as we think about the decisions businesses need to take now to navigate the new Standard.
