    Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) 
    Purpose: To better understand the environmental hazards of critical chemicals used by the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) sector, how they interact with the need for greater energy efficiency, and where our list of companies sit in terms of their environmental impact. 
    As investors in the sector we recognise the human benefits HVAC can bring in a variety of environments. But we need demonstrable evidence that the rapid growth of this sector going forward doesn’t come with large environmental impacts such as long-term chemical loading on the environment.

    • the demographic shift towards an aging population (1) and

    TPI: State of transition in the banking sector report 2024

    22 October 2024

    (https://www.transitionpathwayinitiative.org/publications/2024-state-of-transition-in-the-banking-sector-report-2024)

    The State of transition in the banking sector report assesses the climate ambitions of 26 major international banks, ten US super-regional banks, and two custodian banks.

    The TPI Centre began assessing the banking sector’s progress on the low-carbon transition with a pilot study in 2022. This 2024 assessment includes an evaluation of 26 major international banks, 10 US super-regional banks and two US custodian banks, on two elements: 

    - Net Zero Banking Assessment Framework (NZBAF)
    - Carbon Performance

    The results of our 2024 assessment send a clear message: the overwhelming majority of banks are still in the early stages of their transition to a low-carbon economy. This is despite the fact that most banks we assess are now publicly disclosing some of their financed emissions and half are committing to reducing them to net zero by 2050. Yet, banks score poorly on both the NZBAF and Carbon Performance assessments.

    Allianz SE: What to watch: The climate cost of defense spending

    SRI Connect Editor @ SRI-CONNECT
    SE
    16 March 2025

    (https://www.allianz.com/content/dam/onemarketing/azcom/Allianz_com/economic-research/publications/specials/en/2025/march/2025_03_14_What-to-watch.pdf)

    The climate taboo: the silent cost of war. Increasing military spending could have major climate consequences as the defense sector already accounts for 5.5% of global emissions, and wars often generate as much emissions as entire nations.

    In this context, ramping up defense spending to 3.5% of GDP could send emissions surging by 38 MtCO2e and 65 MtCO2e within a year. This would set France and Germany back by five and three years, respectively, in their paths to reaching net-zero by 2050. To offset this, Europe will need to increase the defense reliance on renewable energy while improving efficiency in military infrastructure and vehicles, besides developing a comprehensive strategy that integrates defense and climate considerations, upgrading military buildings and facilities to be more sustainable and embedding sustainability principles in procurement and research.

  9. (565) Transition Pathway Initiative: Setting the Standard: Assessing oil and gas companies’ transition plans

    Transition Pathway Initiative: Setting the Standard: Assessing oil and gas companies’ transition plans

    SRI Connect Editor @ SRI-CONNECT
    SE
    2 June 2024

    (https://www.transitionpathwayinitiative.org/publications/2024-setting-the-standard-assessing-oil-and-gas-companies-transition-plans)

    The TPI Centre has assessed the transition plans of 10 of the world’s largest, publicly listed oil and gas companies (five from Europe and five from North America) using the new Net Zero Standard for Oil & Gas.

    The Standard is designed to provide a more in-depth, sectoral analysis of oil and gas companies’ transition plans compared with frameworks available previously. Uniquely, it focuses on comprehensiveness and alignment with limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, investigating aspects of transition planning disclosure that were historically not possible to assess due to low data availability. It therefore offers investors new, sector-specific insights into the ambition and robustness of transition plans, and the net zero transition risks faced by companies in a highly exposed sector.

    The Standard was developed by the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) with support from the TPI Centre.

    Key findings
    • Companies assessed on the Standard score on only 19% of applicable metrics, on average. Such weak results provide evidence that transition plans within the oil and gas sector are still insufficiently detailed for investors to accurately assess transition risk.
    • Scoring on the Standard varies widely between companies. The best performing company scores on more than 50% of applicable metrics, while the worst performing scores on none. The substantial variation in companies’ ambition demonstrates that progress in transition planning is possible among oil and gas companies but is not currently being achieved by most.
    • More disclosure is required on the central aspects of transition planning, including measures to neutralise emissions, and production forecasts. Most companies are missing out these crucial elements, with companies failing to score on 87% of metrics related to the quantification of emissions reductions and on 89% of metrics relating to future oil and gas production.
    • There are significant differences in approach to transition planning between European and North American companies. European companies, on average, score highest on ‘Solutions’ metrics, which assess whether a company is diversifying into low-carbon energy products. European companies score on 46% of Solutions metrics while, in contrast, North American companies score on 3% of Solutions metrics, leaving them exposed to future demand fluctuations.

    Transition Pathway Initiative: Carbon performance assessment of food producers: Discussion paper

    (https://www.transitionpathwayinitiative.org/publications/109.pdf?type=Publication)

    Transition Pathway Initiative: Carbon performance assessment of food producers: Discussion paper 

    The food sector is significant both to investors and the climate. The world’s 20 largest publicly listed food producers had a market capitalisation of over US$710bn in 2021, and the entire food sector contributes, either directly or indirectly, to 19-32% of annual global GHG emissions. Most of the food processing sector’s emissions are driven by upstream Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services, especially the emissions associated with crop and livestock production, and land-use change.

    This discussion paper proposes a methodology to assess the Carbon Performance of food producers. It incorporates company feedback on the individual company assessments have undertaken. TPI are publishing it now to solicit additional feedback from interested parties, with the aim of improving the methodology still further. To date, TPI has developed methodologies to assess the Carbon Performance of 10 high-carbon sectors, including electricity utilities, oil and gas producers, and high-carbon industrial and transport sectors.
