Towards an ambitious transition plan based on regulatory and standards requirements

First of all, Carbone 4 helps companies to decipher, map and situate themselves in the range of standards and regulations surrounding the issues of planetary limits, and in particular: European taxonomy, SFDR, CSRD, CS3D or CSDD, CBAM, SBTi, Act, GHG Protocol, ISO Standards, TCFD, and so on.

Subsequently, we support organizations in the process of meeting regulatory requirements by challenging the level of ambition, including:

1. For CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Standard):

• Value chain mapping and business model description
• Dual materiality analysis
• Environmental ESRS gap analysis
• Environmental ESRS reporting roadmap
• Structuring ambitious transition plans
• Support for underlying studies: GHG Protocol or ISO 14064 carbon footprint, environmental risk and opportunity analysis, definition of targets in line with current standards, including SBTi or others, action plan, internal carbon price, etc.

2. For the BEGES:

• Carbon footprint according to the BEGES standard
• Co-definition of transition plan

We also work with companies on voluntary initiatives, helping them to decipher the benefits and limitations of each one, and to implement them in practice:

• Act Pas à Pas: an ADEME and CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) initiative designed to provide a framework for defining a decarbonization strategy.
• Diag Décarbon'Action: a subsidized scheme launched by BPI France and ADEME to help SMEs and ETIs measure and reduce their carbon footprint.
• Pacte Industrie: a range of solutions offered by ADEME to support industrial companies in their energy transition.
• SBTi Standards (Science-based Target Initative): an initiative of the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), which aims to provide a framework for defining science-based targets for business, and to validate the ambition of these targets.
