Solutions · We want to get better

Set targets you can defend, and a plan to meet them.

Targets built on your own footprint, checked against the SBTi 1.5°C rule as advice, and tracked year by year against the path. Then the actions that close the gap, and a transition plan you can put in your report.

Who it is for

Drinks brands that have a footprint and now need to say what they will do about it: for a retailer asking about science-based targets, a B Corp renewal, a report, or their own board.

Where you stand

Every target, against its path.

Each target reads your latest figure against the path from your base year. On path, ahead or behind, how far along, how long is left, and the actions that moved it.

SBTi, as advice

See how a target sits against the 1.5°C rule.

Set a target and watch the check that runs beside it in the app. It is advice: you can save any target, and alkatera never submits to the SBTi for you.

SBTi, as advice

Cut 30% from 2024 to 2030

6 years · 5.0% a year

At 5.0% a year, this meets the SBTi 1.5°C near-term rule for Scope 1 and 2 (4.2% a year, 5 to 10 years).

The line is the app’s own SBTi check, word for word

What you walk away with

Things you can hold, not promises.

01

Targets on your own figures

Emissions targets on any mix of scopes, sites or Scope 3 categories, in tonnes or per litre, plus targets for energy, water, waste, pay, suppliers and your board.

02

An honest SBTi check

Each emissions target is read against the SBTi 1.5°C near-term rule, as advice. It says whether the yearly cut meets the rule or falls short, and by how much.

03

Where you stand, every year

Each target shows whether you are on the path, ahead or behind, how far along you are and how long is left.

04

A plan, not just a number

Actions with owners and budgets, what moved each target, and a transition plan with milestones and risks for your report.

How it works

Three steps.

  1. 1

    Start from your footprint

    The base year and its figure come from your own records, so the target measures what you actually emit.

  2. 2

    Set the target

    Pick what it covers, by when and how far. The SBTi check updates as you go.

  3. 3

    Plan and track

    Add the actions that close the gap. alkatera tracks every target against its path as new figures arrive.

The straight answer

What alkatera does not do.

The SBTi check is advice. alkatera does not submit targets to the SBTi or validate them, and your SBTi status is what you tell us. It does not check how much of Scope 3 a target covers, or run climate scenarios. The transition plan follows no named standard, and an action’s before and after is not proof that the action caused the change.

Questions people ask.

Does alkatera set science-based targets for us?

You set the target. alkatera checks it against the SBTi 1.5°C near-term rule as advice, and says whether the yearly cut meets it. It does not submit to the SBTi or validate targets; that is a separate step with the SBTi.

What does the SBTi check look at?

The yearly cut against the 1.5°C near-term rule (4.2% a year for Scope 1 and 2, 2.5% a year for a Scope 3 target), a 5 to 10 year span, and for long-term targets a cut of at least 90% by 2050. It does not check intensity targets or how much of Scope 3 a target covers.

Can we set targets beyond carbon?

Yes. About 25 measures across environment, workers, community, supply chain and governance, such as renewable electricity, water, waste, a living wage, the gender pay gap and suppliers on board, plus custom targets of your own.

How do we know whether we are on track?

Each target reads your latest figure against its path. Within 2% of the path is on path; better is ahead, worse is behind. A year still running is shown but never judged.

Is this included in the price?

Yes. Every alkatera plan includes the whole platform, from £99 a month (Seed, excluding VAT), with a 30-day free trial.
