ESG sustainable development plan

ESG sustainable development plan is an action plan for company’s sustainable growth and green transition.

Do you want to steer your business towards a green transition?

  • Does a supplier or customer require you to have a green transition action list?
  • Do you need data to complete the CDP climate change questionnaire?
  • Are you preparing for ESG reporting?

If you replied yes to any of the above, we recommend that you develop an ESG sustainable development plan.

The ESG sustainable development plan is implemented in accordance with the Taxonomy Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council. This Regulation sets out the criteria for determining whether an economic activity is environmentally sustainable for the purpose of determining the environmental sustainability of an investment.

Sustainable growth action plan

This taxonomy regulation is one of a number of measures aimed at achieving the three objectives of the EU Action Plan, which are:

  • to redirect capital flows towards sustainable investments in order to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth;
  • to manage financial risks arising from climate change, natural disasters, environmental degradation and social issues;
  • to promote transparency and long-termism for financial and economic activities.

  • It contributes significantly to one or several environmental objectives set out in the Regulation,
  • It does not significantly harm any of those environmental objectives,
  • It is in compliance with the minimum safeguards set out in the Regulation,
  • It meets the technical screening criteria determined by the European Commission in accordance with the Regulation.

Okoljski cilji: For the purpose of the Regulation, environmental objectives are:

  • Climate change mitigation;
  • Climate change adaptation;
