SERVICES | SCIENCE BASED TARGETS INITIATIVE (SBTI)

Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)

The SBTi is a global organisation that helps companies set greenhouse gas reduction targets aligned with climate science, specifically, the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels (as set out in the Paris Agreement).

At organisation level, SBTi reporting helps you track, manage, and demonstrate progress against your science-based targets. It transforms complex emissions data into clear, structured reporting that supports real decarbonisation.

Who is SBTi for?

SBTi applies to any organisation serious about reducing emissions in line with climate science, but it’s especially relevant for mid-to-large companies under regulatory, investor, or supply chain pressure.

  • Defines standards and guidance for setting emissions reduction targets
  • Validates company targets to ensure they are science-aligned
  • Provides frameworks for Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions
  • Supports Net Zero pathways with clear timelines and expectations

We can support the collection, validation, and structuring of emissions data, aligning it with SBTi requirements. Progress is tracked against targets, giving you clear visibility of performance and any gaps that need addressing. We support with:

  • Clear, audit-ready SBTi reporting
  • Confidence in your emissions data and methodology
  • Visibility of progress against targets
  • Identification of gaps and improvement areas
  • Stronger credibility with stakeholders and investors

We provide end-to-end SBTi support, tailored to your organisation and sector.

SBTi readiness and target setting support

If you are considering SBTi verification, we provide tailored reviews of applicable requirements and recommend the most appropriate target-setting approach for your business. This includes guidance on sector-specific pathways and land-based emissions where relevant.

Data collection, validation, and structuring

We support the gathering and validation of emissions data, aligning it with SBTi requirements and best practice methodologies. We even join calls with the Science Based Targets initiative, where required, to ensure your emissions footprint and targets are clearly explained, robustly evidenced, and aligned with expected standards.

Target tracking and reporting

We help you track progress against your targets, providing clear visibility of performance and identifying any gaps or risks early.

Ongoing compliance and standard updates

Companies with existing SBTi commitments will need to transition to updated frameworks, including the upcoming Version 2 corporate standard. We support this transition and the required five-year target reviews to ensure continued compliance and relevance.

JRP have been instrumental in helping us to reduce our energy consumption and costs during a challenging period of organisational change and growth. Professional, reliable and easy to work with.

Steven Buchan, Estates Manager | Circle Health

Working with JRP Solutions transformed our energy management journey. Their expertise and tailored support for ISO 50001 and a behavioural change programme brought real clarity and momentum. We now have a robust framework and engaged team driving down energy use. Thank you to the JRP team for their expertise, commitment, and support throughout.

Ian Goldsworthy, Energy and Carbon Reduction Manager | Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council (MTCBC)

JRP understand the support they are asked to give and deliver on time, budget and in a clear concise professional manner. If only everyone was a reliable as JRP!

Jonathan Blair, Technical Advisor | Westons Cider

We are using JRP’s ‘Be Energy’ eLearning awareness course to help us fully meet the ISO 50001 standard. This course is not only getting good feedback from our staff but the external ISO 50001 auditor completed the course and commented that it was ‘the best energy training course that he had seen’. A feather in the cap for JRP.

David Rose, Energy and Carbon Manager | South West Water

JRP were easy to work with and their pragmatic approach to the project was critical to the development of the submission and validation of our SBTs.

Kate Gallacher, Sustainability Officer | Scottish Leather Group

I have been very impressed by the quality of JRP’s work for the University of Oxford, right from the start. All the energy survey reports have been of high quality and tailored to our specific requirements. Many of the recommendations were not identified in previous surveys. JRP is not afraid to ask difficult questions and challenge the status quo. I have worked with and for energy consultancies for more than 20 years and the quality of JRP’s work is some of the best I have seen.

Philip Pike, Energy Manager | University of Oxford

From the outset, JRP provided a clear direction to us. It was beneficial to gain insight from the non-vehicle manufacturing sector and expert knowledge of the FM sector in particular. Throughout the process, JRP has been a guiding hand but who has also listened to our concerns and questions and provided patient answers to our many questions.

Christine Cooke, Senior Manager | Toyota Motor Manufacturing

We have achieved over 20% energy savings over the last 12 months and no doubt the training was a contributing factor towards this. I am sure that people are much more energy aware than they were before the training and I would recommend anyone who hasn’t done this sort of training to seriously consider it.

Andrew Smith, Property and Energy Manager | Numatic International

The skill and knowledge that was brought to bear demonstrated a level of sure-footedness that was reassuring. The breadth and quality of the work delivered was exactly what we required.

Ola Bankole, Head of Sustainability | London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine

JRP delivered a comprehensive suite of audits that has really helped to us to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs across our sites. The opportunities identified were used as a platform to enhance our decarbonisation strategy, providing transparency on the technologies available now. JRP’s consultants were friendly, knowledgeable and professional at all times.

Nigel Pounder, Asset Manager | Greencore
