What's inside the Climate Scenario Analysis Template
The workbook is structured around four core steps that mirror a robust scenario analysis process:
- Company Setup – Enter your organisation’s starting point: emissions, EBITDA, and capital expenditure inputs. These baseline figures flow through the rest of the workbook.
- Scope Definition – Define the boundaries of your analysis — which regions, emissions scopes, and operational units to include. Clear scoping ensures transparency and repeatability.
- Scenario Selection – Choose from pre-populated climate pathways based on public models, each calibrated to a known global framework. This saves time and reduces guesswork.
- Impact Analysis – Calculate and visualise how carbon costs, capital investment needs, and EBITDA may shift under each scenario. Edit assumptions directly within each tab to reflect your industry realities and strategic priorities.
Every part of the template is built to be editable and transparent, so you can:
- Document assumptions
- Justify choices
- Build a shared understanding across your team
The template covers:
- IEA Net Zero 2050
- NGFS Net Zero 2050
- IPCC SSP1-2.6
It’s designed to align with AASB S2 and ASIC’s RG 280 guidance, particularly around using multiple, plausible scenarios and quantifying financial impacts. The goal isn’t just compliance — it’s to generate actionable insights your business can use.
