What is the SBTi dataset?

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is the global benchmark for credible corporate climate action, defining how companies set greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets in line with climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement. The DitchCarbon SBTi dataset turns that fragmented, frequently-changing public information into a single structured, machine-readable climate dataset you can query, join and report on.

Each record captures a company's near-term and long-term science-based target status, its target classification and target year, any net-zero commitment and net-zero year, whether it has joined the Business Ambition for 1.5°C campaign, and the organisation's sector and operating region. Because every company is matched to the DitchCarbon emissions database, you can analyse SBTi status directly alongside Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions data — connecting climate commitments to measured carbon performance.

It's designed for sustainability, procurement, ESG and financial-services teams who need reliable corporate climate data at scale: to map supplier decarbonisation progress, prioritise supplier engagement, support financed-emissions and portfolio analysis, and automate evidence collection for disclosures such as CSRD, CDP, TCFD and SEC filings.

What teams do with SBTi data

Supply-chain transparency

See which suppliers hold credible, validated science-based targets and where the climate-commitment gaps sit across your supply chain.

Faster climate reporting

Automate SBTi and net-zero evidence collection for CSRD, CDP, TCFD and SEC disclosures instead of manual, company-by-company lookups.

Targeted supplier engagement

Identify suppliers without science-based targets and prioritise decarbonisation outreach where it will reduce emissions fastest.

Financed-emissions & portfolio analysis

Screen portfolios and counterparties on net-zero ambition at scale, and track climate-target adoption across thousands of companies.
