Risks and opportunities
Trend
NextEra is awarded a trend score of -. If the company were reassessed in the near future, its score would likely worsen. While it has achieved successful emissions reductions in the past, the lack of a credible target indicates that there are no mechanisms in place to continue driving the necessary emissions reductions. Moreover, a continued reliance on gas means that projected emissions reductions will fail to keep pace with the rate of reductions required by the company’s well-below 2-degree pathway for emissions intensity. The lack of a comprehensive transition plan and scenario analysis suggests the company will fall further behind on its low-carbon pathway.
