Score Carbone Axylia®
For several years now, there has been much talk about CO2 emissions and climate change, and companies themselves have been quick to publish figures and data, using calculation methods and analysis criteria that are not always very clear. This situation is a source of confusion for investors wishing to invest responsibly, as well as for individuals who want to know more.
Faced with this lack of clarity and simplicity, we came up with the idea of creating the Axylia Carbon Score®.
Methodology
The Axylia Carbon Score® assesses, on a scale from A to F, a company's ability to pay its carbon bill and stabilise it over time. It tells investors and individuals whether the company is truly profitable and responsible, after accounting for the cost of the CO2 it emits.
When a company is not sufficiently transparent or does not disclose all of its emissions, we do not assign it a rating (ND).
Concretely, we first establish the real carbon bill of a company, using a unique calculation method which takes into account all of its CO2 emissions, including its indirect emissions (Scope 3), unfairly hidden in the traditional estimations. We thus integrate the extraction of raw materials, the recycling of the product, but also the transport or the subcontractors.
We then convert the number of tonnes of CO2 obtained into euros, according to the price calculated by leading international experts, in order to establish the overall cost of the company's emissions… which we then compare to its operating income.
Axylia's Carbon Score® is a dynamic tool, that is to say it takes into account the efforts made by a company to reduce its CO2 emissions. A company that takes concrete and ambitious measures to reduce its absolute emissions will be improved.
More and more players in the financial sector and individuals are expecting a commitment from companies in the fight against global warming consequences. Axylia's Carbon Score® is a simple, efficient and reliable tool to guide them and help them make the right decisions.
Axylia calculated the Carbon Score® of the 600 largest European stock market capitalisations using carbon data provided by the global specialist Trucost (Standard & Poor's group).
Concrètement, nous établissons d’abord la véritable facture carbone d’une entreprise, en utilisant une méthode de calcul unique qui tient compte de la totalité de ses émissions de CO2, y compris de ses émissions indirectes (Scope 3), injustement occultées dans les estimations traditionnelles.
Nous intégrons ainsi l’extraction des matières premières, le recyclage du produit, mais aussi le transport ou les sous-traitants.Nous convertissons ensuite le nombre de tonnes de CO2 ainsi obtenu en euros, selon le prix calculé par les plus grands experts internationaux, afin d’établir le coût global des émissions de l’entreprise… que nous comparons ensuite à son résultat d’exploitation.
Le Score Carbone® Axylia est un outil dynamique qui prend en compte les efforts réels d’une entreprise pour réduire ses émissions de CO₂. Une entreprise mettant en œuvre des mesures concrètes et, surtout, ambitieuses de réduction de ses émissions absolues se verra valorisée. Pour cela, nous évaluons l’évolution des émissions carbone (scopes 1, 2 et 3) dans le temps, en tenant compte à la fois de leur trajectoire historique et de leurs engagements climatiques d'ici 2030.
Les acteurs du secteur financier et les particuliers sont de plus en plus nombreux à attendre un engagement des entreprises dans la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique.
Le Score Carbone® Axylia est un outil simple, efficace et fiable pour les orienter et les aider à prendre les bonnes décisions. Axylia a calculé le score carbone des 600 plus grandes capitalisations boursières européennes à partir des données carbone fournies par le spécialiste mondial Trucost (groupe Standard & Poor's).
Avec cet outil, nous avons créé l'indice Vérité 40 qui rassemble les 40 entreprises françaises cotées capables de payer leur facture carbone aujourd'hui et en 2030.
