Can segment-level metrics be used to estimate climate risk metrics at a company level?
Answer
Certainly. Our benchmark values are a starting point that you can combine with any asset’s specificities to estimate the missing values.
Starting from an appropriate benchmark available on the infraMetrics platform (defined by Geography, Business Risk, Industrial Activity, Corporate Structure, and Equity Styles) and then reducing the benchmark in proportion to the decarbonization strategies applicable at the asset level, you can estimate the emissions of your asset. Given the current emissions and revenues of your asset, you can also estimate its future revenues by using our carbon emissions data (absolute emissions and carbon intensity per revenue) in different climate scenarios.
