The CO₂ Performance Ladder in Practice

The CO2 Performance Ladder is a robust green public procurement instrument that serves as both a comprehensive management system for suppliers and acts as an effective public policy tool for governments to inspire and recognize climate action. The tool works by certifying a company’s level of commitment to and action on reducing emissions at a project, organization and supply chain levels, with increased commitments resulting in a higher certification on the Ladder. The CO2 Performance Ladder is owned and administered by the Foundation for Climate Friendly Procurement and Business (SKAO).
