# What must a company report after SBTi Net-Zero Standard V2 validation?

Canonical: https://senseible.earth/answers/sbti-v2-what-to-report-after-target-validation

Scope 1 and 2 inventories, total electricity use, the share of electricity that is low-carbon, material data gaps and estimates, and, for Category A, Scope 3 categories at 5% or more of the total. Report in the next reporting cycle and agree to display on the SBTi Dashboard within six months.

## The list

- Inventory under the GHG Protocol standards, using the latest versions.
- Scope 1 and 2 for Category A and Category B. Scope 3 as well for Category A.
- All Kyoto gases: CO2, CH4, N2O, SF6, NF3, and the groups of HFCs and PFCs.
- Category A only: the Scope 3 categories that account for 5% or more of categories 1 to 14, from the physical inventory.
- Total electricity consumption.
- The percentage of electricity that meets the low-carbon threshold.
- Material data gaps, method limits, uncertainties, and any use of estimates or proxy data.

## When

Report in the next reporting cycle after target validation, and consent to relevant information being shown on the SBTi Dashboard within six months of completing validation.

## Optional Scope 3

Scope 3 emissions outside a category's minimum boundary are reported separately and do not count when finding the significant categories.

## What a supplier can do now

- Get electricity in kWh by month from bills.
- Keep fuel bills by fuel type.
- Write down where you used estimates.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible turns your invoices and bills into verified Scope 1 and 2 records, and shows where supplier data is still missing for Scope 3. Verified here means rule checks passed against the evidence. It is not third-party assurance, and it does not validate targets: only the SBTi's validation process does.
