SBTi、新たな「企業ネットゼロ基準Ver2.0」を発表
専門家の視点
SBTiが企業ネットゼロ基準Ver2.0を発表しましたが、実質的な内容は「枠組みの拡充」「最新科学との整合」「移行期間の設定」という抽象的な記述に終始しています。具体的な要件の変更点、数値目標水準、検証プロセスの改定内容が本文からは読み取れません。 ここにあるのは「実体欠落」構造です。Ver2.0という大きな物語(「実装段階への移行」「最も包括的な枠組み」)は語られていますが、実際に何が変わるのかという測定可能な事実が示されていません。Ver1.3.1との差分、例えばスコープ3の扱いやオフセットの許容範囲、途上国向けの柔軟性など、企業が実際に行動を変えるために必要な実体情報が欠けています。 隠れた前提は「SBTi基準の更新が自動的に企業行動を変える」という点です。しかしVer1.0からVer1.1への移行時でも、多くの企業は目標設定の負荷増大に対応できず、SBTi認定からの離脱が発生しました。基準の高度化と企業の実装能力の間に非対称性が生じる可能性は、今回も無視できません。 注目すべきは移行期間の長さ(2027年第1四半期から2028年1月末まで併用可)です。
