Burn natural gas or other process fuels on site? Under ’s new V2.0 Standard, you can no longer lean on renewable electricity to carry your Scope 1 target. It has to be tackled directly.
That’s easier said than done, especially given how capital- and time-intensive electrification and fuel switching can be.
🗓️ On July 28th, we’re running a webinar in both the Americas/EMEA and APAC time zones covering exactly this. Featuring our on-the-ground experts Miroslav Batka, Head of R&D Americas, Danny Nigh, Sustainability Specialist, Sha Du, Senior Strategist and Roshni Bham, Corporate Sustainability Strategist, the session will cover:
→ SBTi’s new implementation hierarchy, and what it means for energy-intensive businesses
→ How companies can practically prepare for new targets, even when electrification isn’t possible in the near-term
→ Which market-based instruments exist for companies in your region, including biomethane certificates and renewable thermal certificates, and how to incorporate them into your strategy moving forward
→ How to rethink your plan so it’s achievable and aligned with SBTi’s new requirements
📌 Sign up for the webinar today and learn how to get ahead: https://brnw.ch/21x4iDO
The companies that start early are better positioned to identify credible solutions and secure access before the market gets too tight.

Most Scope 3 programs ask suppliers to complete a process built for your reporting needs, not their workday.
Make the ask easier, and the response rate changes.
Scope 3 just got harder to ignore for companies with SBTi FLAG targets.
The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol)'s Land Sector and Removals (LSR) Standard is now final. That gives companies a live, official reference point their Scope 3 Category 1 accounting is expected to align with.
So how do you get from blurry secondary data to measurable, audit-proof reductions?
What our Agricultural Climate Action Program can be tailored to include:
→ Collect primary data from your suppliers, not estimates from secondary sources
→ Deliver a soy, corn, palm oil, sugar, or cattle program shaped around your sourcing footprint
→ Pay farmers directly for the regenerative agricultural practices that stop deforestation and land conversion in sensitive ecosystems
→ Stand up to third-party audits at the highest standards
If your target year is 2030, the clock is already running. Regenerative agriculture needs time in the ground before it shows up in your numbers. The sooner you start, the sooner it counts. Ready to get started?

→ If your operations run on gas, or your emissions can't be solved by electrification alone, this is a session for you.
→ You'll also find us at Booth C10, where our team will be on hand to talk global EACs, biomethane procurement, and energy efficiency (CAEs) projects in Spain.

Brandon Tan from ACT Group is joining industry leaders, policymakers, and experts at the Singapore Climate Transition Forum 2026 to discuss practical pathways toward building resilient and transparent across Asia.

At , Bruno Ortiz, Vice President of Power and Energy at KIO Data Centers summed up where corporate renewable energy stands in Mexico right now:
"For us, this isn’t optional. It’s mandatory."
His clients, global tech multinationals, require 100% certified renewable energy by contract. With penalties.
He's not alone. Here's what the event’s panels made clear:
→ I-RECs are critical to credibly demonstrate commitments under global frameworks like the GHG Protocol. For Orbia, they anchor a 47% emissions reduction target by 2030.
→ Companies often start with I-RECs due to pressure from parent companies and clients and then expand into on-site generation and PPAs.
→ Data centers can’t rely on on-site generation, so they depend primarily on PPAs and I-RECs to meet these requirements.
And for organizations with targets, biomethane attributes are gaining momentum, but scale depends on injection standards, credible tracking, and demand-side frameworks landing first.

Companies still talk about carbon like it sits in , but in APAC, that is becoming an expensive way to think.
At the in Singapore, a few things became clearer from the conversations around Teresa Teo's discussion:
→ Carbon cost is starting to shape risk management and capital allocation
→ Portfolio strategy matters more when companies are balancing compliance exposure with voluntary commitments
→ Long-term offtakes and forwards can create certainty. Spot buying still has a role when flexibility matters
→ Japan and China are two markets serious companies should be watching closely
✅ The companies in the strongest position are not waiting for pressure to force the conversation. They are assessing the cost of carbon early and deciding what role carbon markets should play before the options narrow.
🤔 If you’re in meetings and facing questions like, “How early do we assess exposure? How do we think about cost versus flexibility? What role should carbon markets play in our decarbonization strategy?” reach out to Teresa, Qimin Zhang, and Gong Chen at ACT Group let’s talk about your options → https://brnw.ch/21x1OCb

If biomethane is becoming part of your plan, you won’t want to miss what Soomin Chung has to say at the ERGaR - European Renewable Gas Registry Trading Conference in Amsterdam.
At ACT Group, Soomin works with large corporates across Europe on one of the harder parts of industrial : how to source biomethane in a way that makes sense commercially and holds up over time. Hear what she has to say about long-term offtake structures, guarantees of origin, and sourcing at the “Biomethane in Industry” panel from 11.00 - 12.30 on April 21st.
Isaac Seto will also be at the conference, bringing ACT’s perspective on European biomethane markets, gas supplier obligations, and industrial demand.
The event is sold out, and the biomethane conversations are getting more serious. (So is the buying).

At Economist Impact events Bangkok, our team learned that in Asia is being driven by economics, not politics. Why?
→ Revenue gains from renewable energy surpluses
→ Lower borrowing costs on sustainability-linked loans
→ Supply chain resilience when global markets get shocked
Companies are treating sustainability as cheap insurance, and finding it pays out.
It’s also becoming clear that is moving from disclosure obligation to procurement strategy. Companies are bundling supplier engagement to drive value across the , not just to satisfy a reporting requirement. The supply chains doing this first are building a structural edge over those that aren't.
Both trends have implications for how companies think about what sustainability investment actually buys them.
We'll be sharing more on what we heard this week. Follow ACT Group on LinkedIn for more from John Davis, Wen Xi Chia, Brandon Tan, JaeHee Lim, Dewi Z.
When maritime rules were introduced in 2024, Oceanwide Expeditions needed to understand their exposure and act fast.
We helped them:
→ Structure their hedging strategy
→ Procure
→ Stay on top of allowance surrender
>>> Result: 100% EU ETS compliance.
Now we’re working together on a reforestation project in Brazil. 🌱
Rémi Bouysset, CEO, "What started with compliance evolved into a long-term partnership focused on transparency, ownership, and real climate impact."
