Metrics (vs. Peer Group)
In the context of the Energy industry, we were comfortable with the company’s metrics relative to those of their peers. Company X’s total GHG CO2 Emission Intensity per Sales and Energy Intensity per Sales are lower than all 5 competitors. Despite a lack of formal GHG reduction policy and commitments due to uncertainties around Bill C-59, we spoke with the company and felt comfortable that the company had enough incentives from a fundamentals perspective to continue trending positively.

In addition to these excerpts, the complete RP Barometer assesses transition risks based on carbon budget trends in a sector versus the overall market and for issuers versus their sectors. Transition risks are also evaluated in the context of an issuer’s carbon profile and trajectory of both an absolute intensity basis for scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions. The RP Barometer also includes a framework which grades workplace equity based on five key pillars: workforce participation, equal pay, upward mobility, representation, and leadership. Governance considerations underpin the data analyzed for both environmental and social factors, including assessing policies and action plans published by the company.
