The Science Based Targets initiative opened a 30-day comment period on its net-zero electricity standard, with feedback due Dec. 5 ahead of the standard's Feb. 1, 2027 effective date.
The consultation covers grid deliverability regions and the treatment of older power purchase agreements, the two points that will determine how companies account for purchased electricity.
For allocators and fund selectors reviewing sustainability claims, the outcome sets the boundary for what counts as zero-carbon electricity in corporate net-zero disclosures.
