Sustainability and decarbonization: the guide

Cutting emissions at the lowest cost and managing carbon costs: emission scopes, cost per tonne, abatement curves, carbon prices, and EU border charges.

Facts checked against sources on

What strong candidates can do

  • Explain Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions
  • Rank emission-cutting levers by cost per tonne
  • Size exposure to carbon prices and the EU carbon border charge
  • Build a plan that meets a target at the lowest cost

Common questions

What does the Sustainability and decarbonization guide cover?

Cutting emissions at the lowest cost and managing carbon costs: emission scopes, cost per tonne, abatement curves, carbon prices, and EU border charges.

How should you approach this type of case?

Explain Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Rank emission-cutting levers by cost per tonne. Size exposure to carbon prices and the EU carbon border charge. Build a plan that meets a target at the lowest cost.
