Taxonomy
The mandatory transition to a European low-carbon economy will require private investments in businesses that promote sustainable development.
Taxonomy allows to identify sustainable economic activities that can fulfil the net-zero emission target by 2050.
Aligning their business model with the European taxonomy, companies will access private investments supporting their decarbonisation and therefore accelerating their net-zero transition.
Taxonomy defines sustainable economic activities based on six environmental and climate objectives:
- Climate change mitigation;
- Climate change adaptation;
- Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources;
- Transition to a circular economy, including waste reduction and recycling;
- Pollution prevention and control;
- Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems.
Aligned activities meet the following criteria:
- Making a substantial contribution to at least one of the six above mentioned objectives;
- Doing no significant harm to any other of the above mentioned objectives;
- Complying with minimum social safeguards.
