XDC Model

right°'s XDC Model expresses the climate impact of companies, portfolios, buildings and sovereigns as an implied temperature rise in °C — the warming that would result if the global economy operated at the entity's emissions intensity. The temperature-alignment method is peer-reviewed and published under an open licence (built on the FaIR climate model with NGFS/IEA scenarios), while the commercial software remains closed. It supports forward-looking, scenario-based portfolio-alignment analysis to 2050 across equities, bonds, sovereigns and real estate and has been used by supervisors such as the EBA. A transition-only specialist; it deliberately does not address physical risk.
