Through its Alignment Scale, the Roadmap addresses three essential questions that determine how GPs classify portfolio companies:

1. What measures has the company taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
2. Is there a recognized transition pathway for this company?
3. Do the company’s operations enable the net zero transition?

Once a portfolio company has been classified on the Alignment Scale, the fund can comprehensively track and disclose the company’s decarbonization progress and its role in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

To classify assets against the Alignment Scale and to put the PMDR into practice, please request the PMDR Support Tool.

The tool will enable portfolio classification and disclosure of key insights through various pragmatic visualisations directly in Excel, or through ready-to-paste data linked to PowerPoint templates. These templates can also be requested below.

Since the Roadmap’s initial release, numerous industry leaders have leveraged the PMDR to facilitate classification and disclosure of their portfolio companies’ decarbonization status quo and progress. See below a selection of public PMDR disclosures across the industry:
