Low-carbon electricity alignment target share
Measurement answer
What this metric measures
Low-carbon electricity alignment target share is a future-effective SBTi Version 2.0 result. It preserves the applicable company population, reporting boundary, period, denominator and required disaggregation without importing source prose.
Specification
Metric specification
- Result format
- Structured table
- Unit
- % — percentage of the compatible denominator
- Reporting basis
- The annual reporting period or applicable target, validation or OER cycle; base, target, cumulative and current-period observations remain separately identified.
- Aggregation
- Keep near-term and long-term targets separate; recompute any combined view from compatible target numerators and denominators.
- Pillar
- Environmental
- Topic
- Climate targets and net-zero transition
- Controlled domain
- Climate and greenhouse gases
- Entity type
- Metric
Reporting boundary
The electricity-consumption population covered by the selected near-term or long-term low-carbon electricity alignment target.

- target horizon
- target year
- electricity boundary
- company category
- applicability: Companies selecting the low-carbon electricity target option.
- requirement level: conditional

- Status
- Specified
- Formula type
- Percentage
Formula
(N / D) × 100Divide the compatible targeted low-carbon electricity alignment numerator by its disclosed total-population denominator for the same period and boundary, then multiply by 100.
Variables
| Symbol | Variable | Definition | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
N | targeted low-carbon electricity alignment numerator | The portion of the reporting population that satisfies the targeted low-carbon electricity alignment condition | Dimensionless |
D | Compatible denominator | The complete eligible population for the same entity, period and reporting boundary | Dimensionless |

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Method disclosures required
Source-edition basis: Corporate Net-Zero Standard Version 2.0, June 2026; effective 1 February 2027
- State the SBTi standard edition, applicable criterion, company category and effective or transition status.
- State the reporting entity, boundary, population, period, unit, denominator and dimensional classifications used.
- State estimation, conversion, exclusion, allocation, recalculation and assurance treatment where applicable.
- Link to the official SBTi source and retain the source-defined applicability conditions.
Record-specific limitations
- Version 2.0 becomes available for validation on 1 February 2027; Version 1.3.1 remains a distinct applicable edition through 31 January 2028.
- The June 2026 Methods, Metrics and Pathways consultation document is not used as final formula or benchmark authority.
- Comparability requires compatible company category, boundary, period, unit, denominator, classification and target or OER status.
- This page is an independently authored measurement aid and does not reproduce the source standard, tables, figures or equations.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
