The SBTi tool says that we can increase our emissions with 4303%

Setting a SBT for a renewable energy company (defined as FI by SBT) with electricity generation project finance, the SBTI tool provides me with the following results:


An increase of 4303%, this can’t be correct, what am I doing wrong?

Hi Asgaut,

In the proposed updates to the guidance, FIs may set an energy maintenance target to account for the already low emissions intensity of their clean energy portfolio. If you are still having trouble with the Power sector tool and are looking to set your targets against Version 1.1 of the criteria, please reach out to info@sciencebasedtargets.com to report this anomaly. The power sector team can then look into this.
