The ACT Team launches its Public Consultation to update the Generic methodology. This methodology was first published in 2021 to cover any sectors not already covered by ACT sectoral methodologies. Now the time has come to update it, to ensure it remains cutting-edge in its ambition, relevance, and comprehensiveness.
The consultation will be open for 2 weeks, from 19th of June to 3rd of July 2023, for stakeholders to provide comments. We value the expertise of our stakeholders, and your input will be key to help us develop a robust methodology.
What is the consultation about?
We would like to collect feedback on the following methodology changes:
- Add the possibility of using an ACA target on module 1 & module 2
- Include a “Product locked-in emissions” indicator for companies that sell energy-consuming products with a long lifespan
- Add a clearer definition of the term “Low-carbon client”
- Collect your feedback related to the updated Module 9 Business Model indicators. These modifications will also apply to forthcoming ACT sectoral methodologies updates.
