Data – FBF

Data - FBF

The PACTA for Banks Free Data Set is provided free of charge by Asset Resolution for banks to use in their PACTA analysis.

The Agreement below is specifically for the banks participating voluntarily in the PACTA COP project coordinated with the French Banking Federation (PACTA COP FBF) as part of the Finance ClimAct project. The dataset shared with PACTA COP FBF participants contains, as a one-time delivery, the emissions intensity for the power sector. The emissions intensity for the power sector is not part of the PACTA for Banks Free Data Set and will not be made available to other banks beyond PACTA COP FBF participating banks.

The data set is formatted so as to be compatible with the PACTA for Banks Software. It is based on asset-level production values which have been aggregated to the company level.

A more granular data set is available via Asset Resolution at a fee, which includes the underlying asset-level data and a more granular technology breakdown.

To access the PACTA for Banks Free Data Set, fill in the information below and agree to the terms and conditions. The terms and conditions include the permitted and non-permitted uses of the data. Asset Resolution will e-mail the dataset after validation of the request.

Please allow a week for submissions to be processed.

Targeted users are banks. Requests from organisations other that banks will not be processed or answered. For any use not covered by the terms and conditions, please contact Asset Resolution at info@asset-resolution.com.
