The data covers financial contributions made either directly or indirectly to beneficiaries that are related to our material impacts, risks, and opportunities, which primarily concern climate-related advocacy. External expenses are included. Internal expenses, such as salary for employees working within this area of expertise, are excluded. Our policy does not allow for in-kind political contributions, and consequently this is not relevant to report.

Our lobbying activities primarily concern regulation of the energy sector with a view to accelerating the deployment of renewable energy in a way that underpins urgent climate action, security of supply, competitiveness, and nature enhancement. Our main positions on these topics include support for climate policy agenda goals, namely limiting global heating to 1.5 ºC as per the Paris Agreement and supporting the expansion of renewables and the phase-out of fossil fuels.
