G20 SCORECARD ON FOSSIL FUEL FUNDING

The G20 Scorecard evaluates OECD and non-OECD members across seven criteria related to fossil fuel funding, including transparency, pledges, and the scale of support for coal, oil, gas, and power generation. It ranks countries such as Germany, France, and Brazil at the top of their respective groups, while others like the United States and Saudi Arabia receive lower scores in multiple categories.

• The scorecard evaluates G20 members across seven specific metrics: transparency, pledges and commitments, and the scale of support for coal, oil and gas, fossil fuel power, fossil fuel use, and progress in ending such support.
• Among OECD members, Germany is ranked 1st overall, with 'Very strong' pledges and 'Low' support for oil and gas and fossil fuel power, while the United States is ranked 8th overall with 'Poor' transparency and 'Very weak' pledges.
• Among non-OECD members, Brazil is ranked 1st overall with 'None identified' support for coal and 'Low' support for fossil fuel power and use, whereas Saudi Arabia is ranked 8th overall with 'Very high' support for coal, oil and gas, fossil fuel power, and fossil fuel use.
