4 points for a moderate exclusion of coal power projects: Intesa Sanpaolo will not provide finance for new coal fired power plants. Expansion is not mentioned in this policy. Intesa Sanpaolo will restrict project finance for the acquisition of coal fired power plants already in operation if this results in a coal related installed capacity of more than 30% on the total installed capacity for companies based in OECD countries and 50% for companies based in non-OECD countries.

Explanation

The scores for a bank's policies restricting expansion of fossil fuels - in each area, prohibitions against financing projects and/or companies expanding that area - are aggregated into a fossil fuel expansion policy score.

The point-based policy ranking for fossil fuel expansion consists of the following distribution:

  • Coal mining: 14 points​
  • Coal power: 14 points
  • Other coal: 7 points
  • Tar sands: 9 points
  • Arctic oil and gas: 9 points
  • Offshore oil and gas: 9 points
  • Fracked oil and gas: 9 points
  • LNG: 9 points
  • Other oil and gas: 9 points

A bank can obtain a total of 89 policy points for its fossil fuel expansion policy. Based on this score, banks are then classified as laggards (0-22.25 points), followers (22.25-44.5 points), front runners (44.5-66.75 points) or leaders (66.75-89 points).
