You should not draw any conclusions about TPZ’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of TPZ’s distribution policies.

TPZ estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in TPZ is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect TPZ’s investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income."

The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon TPZ's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. TPZ will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

One of 50 Firms to “Do Something Hard” Actions to Improve Inclusion and Equity

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#DEI--International law firm Dorsey & Whitney is pleased to announce that the Firm has committed to take one “Do Something Hard” action as part of the 2021 Inclusion Blueprint.


Dorsey is one of 50 law firms that are participating in the Inclusion Blueprint, a collaborative project between Diversity Lab and ChIPs. The project provides a first-of-its-kind tool to measure inclusion actions that law firms can and should employ—at both the leadership and practice group levels—to ensure that historically underrepresented lawyers have fair and equal access to quality work, influential sponsors and clients, and other opportunities.

The assessment includes three main categories for law firms to track, measure, and benchmark their diversity and inclusion efforts at the leadership and practice group levels: (1) current diversity representation thresholds and year-over-year progress; (2) ongoing inclusion practices and activities; and (3) a commitment to “hard” actions to be implemented over the next year.

The public commitments to “Do Something Hard” are a new addition to this year’s assessment. Following George Floyd’s murder in 2020, many law firms issued statements confirming their commitment to racial equality and ensuring that all individuals are treated fairly in the workplace and beyond. “Research shows that real change requires actions that are meaningful, sustained long term, and measurable—not just statements,” said Erin Hichman, Diversity Lab’s Director of Data Management. “The ‘Do Something Hard’ actions, when put in place by firm management and supported by all partners at the practice group level, signal that they are serious about and committed to making their own group’s systems more equitable.”

The actions at the Leadership level include: (1) 50 hours of billable credit for DEI contributions; (2) partner and/or practice group leader compensation linked to DEI; and (3) pay and origination credit equity gap analyses for partners.

The actions at the Practice Group level include: (1) matter credit for diverse lawyers for new and expanding work; (2) client team diversity and direct access; and (3) an Ally Action Pledge.

By committing to the first Leadership action, Dorsey will go beyond simply offering 50 hours of “billable credit” to lawyers for meaningful contributions to diversity and inclusion at the Firm and in the profession by tracking and measuring whether those hours are being used equally by various demographic populations and making changes to remedy unequal distribution across various demographic populations.

As part of their commitment to these actions, the participating firms’ leaders will report their progress to Diversity Lab and also participate in the 2022 Inclusion Blueprint to remain accountable to these actions.

Read more about Dorsey and the law firms that have publicly committed to implement the actions at the Leadership and Practice Group levels by January 2022.

“Dorsey knows that real change requires action, not just statements,” said Dorsey Managing Partner Bill Stoeri. “We believe that the ‘Do Something Hard’ actions will lead to improvements in how we operate our business and in how our policies and practices impact colleagues and clients. We are dedicated to improvement both inside and outside our Firm.”

Staff, Labor and Industry Partners Praised for Amazing performance during Unprecedented Times

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Port Commission of the Port of Houston Authority convened on Tuesday in an in-person public meeting for the first time since the pandemic's start. The Emergency Suspension of the Open Meetings Act requirements ended, and in accordance, a quorum of the Commission was physically present.



Chairman Campo observed that they had masks and were properly spaced and being thoughtful of best Covid-19 protocols. He said that the hybrid public meetings will likely continue as providing remote access of the meetings to the public is a “helpful option.”

Chairman Campo expressed appreciation to Port staff and users of the channel, including the International Longshoremen Association (ILA), Seafarers, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the U.S. Coast Guard, among many for “continuing to drive economic activity, impact and creating jobs for our region.” He said in part that “an amazing amount of work is getting done by an amazing team doing a great job despite the pandemic and issues along the supply chain.”

In his staff report, Executive Director Roger Guenther highlighted the historic record-breaking month of the highest cargo volume ever for the public container terminals. He added that there has also been a dramatic increase in import steel, and other general cargo commodities handled through the Multipurpose facilities.

Guenther said the Port is seeing an extended peak holiday season for containerized cargo and the elevated levels occurring in the supply chain are expected to continue well into 2022. The unprecedented surge in import volumes has created significant challenges across the nation and Houston is not immune to current disruptions in the global supply chain. However, Port Houston remains closely engaged with customers, ocean carriers, stevedores, labor, truckers, and all other industry partners to seek solutions to maximize the opportunities to keep freight moving efficiently.

In consideration of heightened interest of the Houston Ship Channel expansion program, Project 11, Guenther highlighted the environmental initiatives of the public terminals. Earlier this month, Port Houston received the draft report for the Goods Movement Emissions Inventory (GMEI), which updates emissions data from 2013 to 2019.

The updated GMEI draft shows improvements in nearly every category. Even with the 53% twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) throughput increase and 8% increase in cargo tonnage during this period, the public terminals emissions were lowered by between 15% and 93% for all evaluated pollutants across the board in 2019 compared to 2013.

Additionally, Mr. Guenther noted receiving 9 new hybrid-electric rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes bringing the total to 31 RTG’s, growing this yard crane equipment from zero to 26% of the total fleet over recent years. The hybrid-electric RTGs reduce emissions by up to 70 to 90% over older diesel models.

Port Houston continues to explore opportunities, including accelerating an already aggressive capital investment strategy for the public terminals to stay in front of the demand. A highlight of items passed and authorized by the Commission included the award of a construction contract to complete rail spur construction at the Bayport terminal. Also, the Commission approved an order for more than $800,000 to purchase replacement data storage and increased redundancy equipment.

Chairman Campo also applauded Port Houston's Information Technology (IT) Department for successfully “stopping a security breach before it happened.” During the meeting in public comments, U.S. Coast Guard Captain of the Port Jason E. Smith presented a Certificate of Merit to Director, Information Security Officer Chris Wolski for his actions, diligence, expertise and contributions concerning protecting Port Houston and the Houston Ship Channel overall on matters related to cybersecurity.

Guenther also formally introduced the new Chief Business Equity Officer, Maxine Buckles, to the Commission. Buckles will lead the Small/Minority and Women-owned Business Equity program and internal Diversity, Equity, Inclusion initiatives and report directly to the Executive Director.

The next regular Port Commission meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 26.

About Port Houston

For more than 100 years, Port Houston has owned and operated the public wharves and terminals along the Houston Ship Channel, including the area’s largest breakbulk facility and two of the most efficient and fastest-growing container terminals in the country. Port Houston is the advocate and a strategic leader for the Channel. The Houston Ship Channel complex and its more than 200 public and private terminals, collectively known as the Port of Houston, is the nation’s largest port for waterborne tonnage and an essential economic engine for the Houston region, the state of Texas, and the U.S. The Port of Houston supports the creation of nearly 1.35 million jobs in Texas and 3.2 million jobs nationwide, and economic activity totaling $339 billion in Texas – 20.6 percent of Texas’ total gross domestic product (GDP) – and $801.9 billion in economic impact across the nation.

HRS to Supply 36 Hydrogen Stations by 2026

HRS to invest €7M in GAUSSIN stock

HÉRICOURT, France & GRENOBLE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GAUSSIN (EURONEXT GROWTH : ALGAU - FR0013495298), pioneer of clean and smart freight transport, and Hydrogen-Refueling-Solutions (HRS) (EURONEXT GROWTH ALHRS FR0014001PM5), European designer and manufacturer of hydrogen refueling stations, announced the signing today of a term sheet to implement an exclusive partnership. As part of this partnership, HRS will supply 36 hydrogen stations between 2021 and 2026 in the European Union. The agreement is intended to support the rollout of GAUSSIN’s turnkey hydrogen mobility solutions for on-road and off-road applications.


As part of the agreement, HRS is investing €7 million in newly issued shares of GAUSSIN at the unit subscription price of €6.20 per share.

A TURNKEY OFFER TO PROMOTE ACCESS TO HYDROGEN AND SATISFY STRONG DEMAND FOR H2 MOBILITY SOLUTIONS

The integration of HRS into GAUSSIN’s hydrogen ecosystem and the contribution of its station expertise, a key component of the value chain, will capitalize on the strengths of each partner, enabling the offer of a comprehensive, low-carbon mobility solution, helping to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen fuel, which is perfectly suited to GAUSSIN’s heavy vehicle applications.

The details of the partnership include the development of a turnkey solution marketed by GAUSSIN, comprising zero-emission vehicles for multiple uses (airports, logistics, ports, Smart Cities, roads) resulting from technological innovations in its research and development center, and the latest-generation HRS hydrogen refueling station. The stations will be manufactured on the HRS site in the Grenobloise metropolitan area.

As part of this exclusive partnership, HRS will supply a minimum of 36 hydrogen stations to GAUSSIN or its customers over a period of five years, optionally supported by a new leasing solution established with BNP PARIBAS Leasing Solutions. The agreement provides for a gradual ramp-up beginning with the delivery of four 200 kg/day stations in 2021/2022, starting with two 30 days after HRS has invested in newly issued GAUSSIN shares.

TOGETHER SUPPORTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE EUROPEAN HYDROGEN INDUSTRY

HRS will also subscribe to a capital increase of GAUSSIN, of €7 million (€6.20 per share). The partnership between the two companies is aimed at facilitating a joint approach to the development of the hydrogen sector in Europe, with heavy mobility set to play a major role in the coming months.

“HRS’s expertise and its international reputation in the field of hydrogen stations makes us confident in our ability to deliver robust and reliable solutions while simplifying our value proposition for our customers with a turnkey solution integrating the production and distribution of hydrogen, in addition to GAUSSIN vehicles, together with all the associated services,” said Christophe Gaussin, Chairman and CEO of GAUSSIN.

“This is a historic agreement for the deployment of hydrogen in Europe. Our new partnership, spanning both commercial aspects and investment, with a player as dynamic and ambitious as GAUSSIN, will allow progress in the structuring of the sector and help accelerate the rollout of our hydrogen mobility solutions. Large-scale projects are emerging, thanks in large part to support from numerous European stimulus plans. Our new partnership will allow the first comprehensive turnkey offer to satisfy this massive demand through joint innovation from our two groups,” added Hassen Rachedi, Founder and Chairman and CEO of HRS.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Moody’s Corporation (NYSE: MCO) today announced that it has joined the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), a new industry-led initiative working to significantly shift global financial flows from nature-negative to nature-positive outcomes. As a member of the TNFD, Moody’s will join leading organizations across key sectors and geographies to develop a reporting framework and act on evolving nature-related risks.


“At its core, Moody’s role is to help others better understand, measure, and manage risk. As our own research has identified, biodiversity and nature-related risks are impacting corporate performance and are increasingly important considerations in building a more sustainable future,” said Rob Fauber, President and Chief Executive Officer of Moody’s Corporation. “We are thrilled to contribute to the TNFD’s efforts as organizations increasingly seek to make better decisions and unlock opportunities across their value chains.”

Research from across Moody’s has found that biodiversity and nature-related risks pose a significant threat to a wide range of industries and sectors. A Moody’s Investors Service report found that 12 sectors with $2.1 trillion in combined debt, including all extractive industries, face high or very high natural capital risk. In addition, a Moody’s ESG Solutions study found that 38% of large publicly traded companies have at least one facility associated with habitat loss, based on a sample of 5,300 corporations.

Currently, financial institutions and companies do not have complete information to help them understand how nature-related risks impact long- and short-term financial performance. The TNFD will assist financial institutions and companies with incorporating nature-related risks and opportunities into their strategic planning, risk management and asset allocation decisions. In the coming years, Moody’s will work with TNFD members to develop a practical framework for nature-related risks and a set of reporting guidelines.

The announcement builds on Moody’s participation in the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), which has established and normalized a framework for reporting financial risks related to climate change. It also follows Moody’s role as a founding member of the Net Zero Financial Services Provider Alliance, which is part of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero. Moody’s has also committed to achieve net-zero emissions across its operations and value chain by 2040, bringing its original target forward by 10 years. In addition, Moody’s has set and progressed on validated, interim net-zero science-based targets. Progress on these targets can be viewed in Moody’s recent TCFD Report and Stakeholder Sustainability Report. Additional information about Moody’s climate efforts is available on its Climate Hub.

ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$ARR.TO #Renewable--Altius Renewable Royalties (TSX:ARR) (OTCQX: ATRWF) (“ARR”) reports that its joint venture subsidiary Great Bay Renewables (“GBR”) has closed a US$52.5 million royalty investment with Northleaf Capital Partners (“Northleaf”) related to three operating-stage wind and solar renewable energy projects located in Texas. GBR is a joint venture company of ARR and funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE: APO) (“Apollo Funds”).



Cotton Plains Portfolio Royalty Acquisition

The newly acquired revenue-based royalty portfolio includes: (1) the 151 MW Old Settler wind project, (2) the 50 MW Cotton Plains wind project, and (3) the 15 MW Phantom Solar project (collectively, the “Projects”). The output from Cotton Plains and Phantom Solar is sold at a fixed price under long-term contracts with the US Department of Defense through January 2045, while the output from Old Settler will be sold into the ERCOT market. The three projects have been in commercial operation since 2017.

The royalty investment has been structured using royalty rates that vary over time and provide GBR with US$ 4-7 million per year over the first 10 years of the investment. The structure also allows ARR to achieve its investment hurdle targets while optimizing Northleaf’s project level cash flow profile. The royalty funding will be used to repay existing debt financing and provide additional working capital.

Jared Waldron, Managing Director at Northleaf, said, “We are pleased to be partnering with GBR to implement an innovative financing solution that will create value for our investors. As long-term assets producing stable cash flows from the generation of clean energy, the Projects will benefit from the long-term financing afforded by this new royalty structure.”

ARR and Apollo Funds have agreed to fund the Northleaf investment with approximately 80% of the capital provided by Apollo Funds and the balance of US$11.6 million to be funded directly by ARR. Apollo Funds have now met their commitment to earn a full 50% ownership interest in GBR. Going forward, ARR and Apollo Funds are expected to fund new opportunities on an equal basis.

Additional information concerning the Northleaf transaction can be found at arr.energy and in a SEDAR-filed Material Change Report.

New Developer Royalty

ARR is also pleased to announce that it has been notified of the sale of a 500 MW renewable energy project in Texas from one of its funded developer partners to a confidential buyer and the creation of a 2.5% royalty in favour of GBR. GBR has been informed that the project is currently slated to issue notice-to-proceed in early 2022.

Brian Dalton, CEO of ARR, commented, “Our GBR joint venture subsidiary expects to become cash flow positive in 2022. This milestone has been reached sooner than expected and is a tremendous credit to the team. Moreover, the recent completion of investments related to four operational stage assets has implications for the potential scope of future capital deployment and the larger role we can play in enabling the clean energy transition. This new funding avenue, combined with the continuing strong demand for the new projects being created by our developer partners, has resulted in the rapid growth of our royalty portfolio to now cover more than 3 GW of renewable energy projects.”

Strategic partnership to create Green Machine Equipment-branded, zero-emission vehicles for use in dense, urban areas, and corporate campuses

BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Bobcat--Viridi Parente, Inc., a developer of innovative battery technology that can be safely installed and operated in nearly any environment or location, is partnering with Garia Utility, the Denmark-based leader in low-speed utility vehicles, to develop last-mile, low-speed electric utility vehicles for the U.S. market. These vehicles will be manufactured in Buffalo, New York, and branded under the Green Machine Equipment name.


An image of the Green Machine electric, low-speed utility vehicle may be downloaded here - https://rb.gy/uywc9e.

"If we are going to have any impact on decarbonization, we need to rethink our supply chain strategies and equipment options, especially for last-mile delivery," said Jon M. Williams, CEO of Viridi Parente. "Green Machine couldn't ask for a better partner to introduce clean utility vehicles into the U.S. than Garia. Its proven technology is already deployed throughout Europe, and the compact design is ideally suited for use in dense, urban areas in the U.S."

Garia chose to partner with Green Machine because of its proprietary, durable, and safe battery technology that is being used by leading construction brands such as Bobcat and Case. Green Machine was the first manufacturer to introduce all-electric heavy construction and industrial equipment into the market and has perfected the technology with more than 250,000 hours of robust field testing.

Garia Utility has over 900 last-mile vehicles deployed on delivery routes in Sweden through a contract with PostNord (the Swedish Postal Service). The combination of Green Machine's propriety technology and Garia's know-how in the last-mile vehicle space creates a superb clean vehicle that replaces standard diesel or gasoline-powered utility vehicles. For U.S. markets, Green Machine battery technology will increase the range and adaptability of the vehicle.

"After evaluating many potential partners, Viridi Parente was the obvious choice," said Jakob Holstein, CEO of Garia. "Not only did they have the best technology for our needs, but their technology had the most field experience. We were also aligned well on leadership and values."

Green Machine's electric utility vehicles are unlike anything currently available in the U.S. The compact design allows users to access narrow spaces such as constricted roadways, tight alleys, or compressed park or campus pathways. In addition to the traditional model, Green Machine has installed its technology into a right-hand-drive chassis from Garia that squarely fits any delivery needs.

Still dominated by fossil-fuel-powered trucks and vehicles, the supply chain remains a significant source of greenhouse gasses. In New York, transportation accounts for about 36% of the state's carbon emissions. While the nation's reliance on an efficient, reliable supply chain increases, so does the desire to transition long-haul and last-mile delivery to zero-emission vehicle options. McKinsey forecasts that the number of electric utility vehicles will grow from just 5,000 in 2018 to more than 8 million by 2030.

About Viridi Parente

Viridi Parente (Viridi) is a disruptive energy company in Buffalo, New York, that is changing the way we use energy, improving systems, communities, and lives. Viridi deploys safe battery technology into applications that have been historically dominated by fossil fuel energy sources. Its innovative architecture is constructed from materials used for aerospace and military applications and is the only design in the market that can be safely installed and operated in nearly any environment or location. Through its subsidiary, Green Machine Equipment, Viridi is bringing quiet, fully renewable mobile energy solutions to products in construction equipment, waste disposal, last-mile delivery, and other portable industrial markets. Through its subsidiary, Volta Energy Products, Viridi brings stationary, point-of-use storage technology that is safe, locatable, and reliable to industrial, medical, commercial, municipal, and residential building applications.

  • Can deliver 100km of range in less than three minutes
  • Only charger designed explicitly to charge up to four vehicles at once
  • Ideal for refueling stations, urban charging stations, retail parking and fleet applications

ZURICH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ABB is today launching an innovative all-in-one Electric Vehicle (EV) charger, which provides the fastest charging experience on the market.


ABB’s new Terra 360 is a modular charger which can simultaneously charge up to four vehicles with dynamic power distribution. This means that drivers will not have to wait if somebody else is already charging ahead of them. They simply pull up to another plug. The new charger has a maximum output of 360 kW and is capable of fully charging any electric car in 15 minutes or less, meeting the needs of a variety of EV users, whether they need a fast charge or to top their battery up while grocery shopping.

“With governments around the world writing public policy that favors electric vehicles and charging networks to combat climate change, the demand for EV charging infrastructure, especially charging stations that are fast, convenient and easy to operate is higher than ever,” said Frank Muehlon, President of ABB’s E-mobility Division. “The Terra 360, with charging options that fit a variety of needs, is the key to fulfilling that demand and accelerating e-mobility adoption globally.”

“It’s an exciting day for ABB, who as the global leader in electric vehicle fast charging, is playing a key role in enabling a low carbon society,” said Theodor Swedjemark, Chief Communications and Sustainability Officer at ABB. “With road transport accounting for nearly a fifth of global CO2 emissions, e-mobility is critical to achieving the Paris climate goal. We will also lead by example by switching our entire fleet of more than 10,000 vehicles to non-emitting vehicles.”

Available in Europe from the end of 2021, and in the USA, Latin America and Asia Pacific regions in 2022, Terra 360 is designed with the daily needs and expectations of EV drivers in mind. Leveraging the rich field experience gained by ABB E-mobility’s large installed base, the Terra 360 delivers speed and convenience along with comfort, ease-of-use and a sense of familiarity.

Its innovative lighting system guides the user through the charging process and shows the State of Charge (SoC) of the EV battery and the residual time before the end of an optimal charge session. The world’s fastest EV charger is also wheelchair accessible and features an ergonomic cable management system that helps drivers plug in quickly with minimal effort.

As well as serving the needs of private EV drivers at fueling stations, convenience stores and retail locations, Terra 360 chargers can also be installed on an organization’s commercial premises to charge electric fleet cars, vans and trucks. This gives owners the flexibility to charge up to four vehicles overnight or to give a quick refill to their EVs in the day. Because Terra 360 chargers have a small footprint, they can be installed in small depots or parking lots where space is at a premium.

Terra 360 chargers are fully customizable. To personalize the appearance, customers can ‘brand’ the chargers by using different foiling or changing the color of the LED light strips. There is also the option to include an integrated 27” advertisement screen to play video and pictures.

ABB is a world leader in electric vehicle infrastructure, offering the full range of charging and electrification solutions for electric cars, electric and hybrid buses, vans, trucks, ships and railways. ABB entered the e-mobility market back in 2010, and today has sold more than 460,000 electric vehicle chargers across more than 88 markets; over 21,000 DC fast chargers and 440,000 AC chargers, including those sold through Chargedot.

ABB high-power chargers are already being deployed around the world through the company’s partnerships with international charging operators such as IONITY and Electrify America.

Company intends to reduce manufacturing-related emissions intensity by 30% and products-related emissions intensity by 15% by 2030

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) announced today that it intends to reduce greenhouse gas emissions intensity from its operations and energy products by 2030, setting impactful, attainable and measurable targets for the company. The company plans to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions intensity from operations by 30% and Scope 3 emissions intensity of its energy products by 15%, below 2019 levels.


We believe our targets will drive innovation and create shareholder value,” said Phillips 66 Chairman and CEO Greg Garland. “We support the ambitions of the Paris Agreement, and Phillips 66 will do its part by improving energy efficiency and developing lower-carbon technologies.”

Phillips 66 previously disclosed changes to its annual bonus program that are intended to reinforce its priorities around greenhouse gas emissions reductions and lower-carbon efforts.

In a presentation posted on Phillips66.com, the company outlines how it plans to achieve its emissions reduction goals while maintaining its focus on returns. Phillips 66 will continue to invest in improving the energy efficiency of its assets, six of which have already earned ENERGY STAR certifications since 2012 from the Environmental Protection Agency. Additionally, the company plans to increase the production of renewable fuels, advance the electric vehicle battery supply chain, implement carbon capture technologies at select facilities, and participate in commercial-scale lower-carbon hydrogen production. The company’s investments to meet these goals will be consistent with its disciplined approach to capital allocation.

The challenges the energy industry and society are facing are great, but Phillips 66 is a company of problem-solvers,” Garland said. “We are committed to being part of the solution and helping the world address climate change.”

The targets set by Phillips 66 build on the company’s lower-carbon strategy and leverage its Emerging Energy group. The company has made meaningful progress toward developing a lower-carbon business platform, which includes expanding access to renewable feedstocks, producing renewable fuels, advancing sustainable aviation fuel and participating in the U.S. supply chain for lithium-ion batteries.

Phillips 66 is also one of the few downstream energy companies with an in-house research and development organization. The Energy Research & Innovation group works on developing and commercializing lower-carbon technologies to support the energy transition, including sodium-ion batteries. The company has active U.S. patents in a number of areas, including biofuels, carbon capture and sequestration, fuel cells and low-carbon hydrogen.

Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from Phillips 66’s operations — refineries, compressors and other equipment, for example. Scope 2 are indirect emissions resulting from the generation of electricity and steam that the company purchases to support its business activities. Scope 3 emissions are indirect emissions related to consumer use of products the company makes.

Go to the Sustainability section of the Phillips 66 website for a video message from Greg Garland, a presentation with more details on the emissions reduction targets, and the company’s Sustainability & ESG Overview.
