ESG and innovation adoption assessment
ESG+ extends classic ESG assessment. Beyond risk, governance, and disclosure, it checks whether a company changes production through innovation and whether that change has measurable environmental effect.
Assessment object
Company, project, or production program
Structure
E 30%, S 25%, G 20%, innovation 25%
Evidence
A, B, or C data with a confidence coefficient
01
Classic ESG assessment shows current risk and governance quality, but it often misses whether a company can change the production system itself. ESG+ adds an innovation layer: not only what was disclosed, but what was implemented and what effect it produced.
02
The working structure has four blocks: environment, social, governance, and innovation. The innovation block does not replace ESG; it checks technological change.
03
Each innovation block receives a 0-10 score. The assessment looks at risk exposure, management quality, confirmed results, and whether the solution can be repeated at other sites.
04
Every innovation is compared with a baseline before adoption. The point is not the existence of a project, but the change in resource intensity, waste, emissions, and process quality after adoption.
05
The score of each innovation project is adjusted by evidence quality. The weaker the data trail, the lower the project influence on the assessment.
06
ESG+ includes suppliers when their footprint is material for the product or service. Supplier innovation counts only when upstream effect is proven.
07
The review follows five steps: define scope, collect data, normalize indicators, calculate the score, and review disputed points. The final report lists applicability limits and supporting evidence.
Other methods
Company rating method
GreenStars shows a company's level of environmental responsibility from open evidence. It turns seven metrics into one score, publishes the weights, and leaves a clear audit trail.
OpenVoluntary product and service certification
GreenList Product reviews a product, work, or service separately from the company rating. It looks at product properties and the full path from idea and materials to use and end of life.
