We have expanded the list of climate policies we assess company engagement with to incorporate land-use related policy, referring to legislative or regulatory measures to enhance and protect ecosystems and land where carbon is being stored. Assessments under this category are currently underweighted in terms of their contribution to the overall company metrics. This weighting will be progressively increased over the next 6 months.
We adjusted the terminology used to describe the queries running down the left-hand side of our scoring matrix and added additional explanatory text to the info-boxes. This has no impact on the scores and methodology. It has been done following user feedback to improve clarity.

In this section, we depict graphically the relationships the corporation has with trade associations, federations, advocacy groups and other third parties who may be acting on their behalf to influence climate change policy. Each of the columns above represents one relationship the corporation appears to have with such a third party. In these columns, the top, dark section represents the strength of the relationship the corporation has with the influencer. For example if a corporation's senior executive also held a key role in the trade association, we would deem this to be a strong relationship and it would be on the far left of the chart above, with the weaker ones to the right. Click on these grey shaded upper sections for details of these relationships. The middle section contains a link to the organization score details of the influencer concerned, so you can see the details of its climate change policy influence. Click on the middle sections for for details of the trade associations. The lower section contains the organization score of that influencer, the lower the more negatively it is influencing climate policy.

Climate Lobbying Overview: Intel appears to have largely positive positions on climate action, but is not strategically engaged with specific policy. The company maintains links to several trade and advocacy groups which are negatively lobbying on climate policy.
Top-line Messaging on Climate Policy: Intel has mostly positive top-line positions on climate policy. In its 2020 Climate Change Policy Statement, Intel supported GHG emission reductions to limit warming to 1.5 °C, in line with the IPCC. In that same statement, it stated preference market-based policies over other forms of government regulation on climate change. However, in a February 2021 blog post, Intel stated support for “innovation-focused climate policies” and in February 2022, the company signed a joint Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) letter that stated support for the climate provisions in the Build Back Better Act. In a 2021 blog, Intel supported the Paris Agreement and advocated for the re-entry of the US into the treaty, in addition to reiterating its support for the Paris Agreement in its 2021 CDP Disclosure.
Engagement with Climate-Related Regulations: Intel appears to take a mixed position on specific climate change policies. The company supported various carbon pricing policies such as carbon taxes and cap-and-trade systems in its 2020 Climate Change Policy Statement. In the same statement, Intel supported the EU’s Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), yet appeared to stress concerns regarding loss of competitiveness and carbon leakage due to the scheme. It also broadly supported the expansion of renewable energy through legislation across the US, Europe and China, but offered an unclear position on GHG emissions standards. Intel was also unclear on if it supports renewable energy mandates in a February 2021 blog post.
Positioning on Energy Transition: Intel appears to be supportive of the energy transition, but has not actively engaged with the issue. In the company’s 2020 Climate Change Policy Statement, it was supportive of the decarbonization of the European economy.
Industry Association Governance: Intel has not disclosed a full list of its industry association memberships, nor has it published an audit of its alignment with industry associations. The company listed only two trade associations on its 2021 CDP Disclosure. Despite its positive top-line messaging on climate change, Intel maintains links to trade groups negatively lobbying on climate policies in the US and Europe. It is a member of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and a Board Member of the National Association of Manufacturers in the US, as well as a member of BusinessEurope, all of which engage negatively on climate policy in their respective jurisdictions.
