18. Does the company disclose the actions necessary to meet its emissions-reduction targets?
Level 5: Transition Planning and Implementation
19. Does the company quantify the key elements of its emissions reduction strategy and the proportional impact of each action in achieving its targets?
20. Does the company's transition plan clarify the role that will be played by offsets and/or negative emissions technologies?
21. Does the company commit to phasing out capital expenditure on carbon intensive assets or products?
22. Does the company align future capital expenditures with its long-term decarbonisation goals and disclose how the alignment is determined?

Carbon Performance alignment of companies in the Renault sector with the Paris agreement benchmarks.
TPI has assumed that both tank-to-wheel and well-to-tank emissions fall by equal proportions in meeting the company’s well-to-wheel target. TPI has also assumed that the average emissions intensities of both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles fall by equal proportions in meeting the company’s well-to-wheel target. TPI’s benchmarks harmonise emissions under the EU’s Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP). While formally adopted in September 2017, manufacturers systematically began reporting emission performance in WLTP in the reporting year 2020. We rely on conversion factors published by the ICCT to translate companies’ historical intensities from NEDC to WLTP, but previous assessments using NEDC are still accessible on our tool. When interpreting TPI Carbon Performance data, it is important to bear in mind that climate science shows temperature change is proportional to cumulative absolute CO2 emissions.
