Report summary
The Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) has published a net zero standard for oil and gas companies (the Standard). Investors, advocacy groups and oil and gas companies have collaborated on the development of the framework. The central message is that companies need to go further to be Paris-aligned. The Standard could have big implications for the sector – another driver that helps fuel the decarbonisation domino effect.
