Description (excerpt):

As part of the overall WBA’s Climate and Energy Benchmarks, the Electric Utility Benchmark measures and ranks the world’s 50 most influential electric utility generation companies on their lowcarbon transition. The Electric Utilities Benchmark 2021 is the first comprehensive assessment of companies in the electric utilities sector using the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario which was released in May 2021. In partnership with CDP and ADEME (the French agency for ecological transition), the benchmark assesses 50 keystone electric utility companies’ targets and performance against their 1.5°C pathways, to see if they are on track to meet the Paris Agreement goal using the ACT (Assessing lowCarbon Transition) Electric Utility methodology. This is the second iteration of assessments: we assessed the globally influential electric utility companies on their alignment to a lowcarbon world in 2020 and now again in 2021.
