| Comprehensive | Flex Ltd has demonstrated a comprehensive level of transparency in disclosing its climate lobbying activities. The company has clearly identified multiple specific climate policies it has engaged with, including the "US Solar Tariff," the "Bureau of Land Management's Competitive Processes, Terms, and Conditions for Leasing Public Land for Solar and Wind Energy Development," and "Senate Bill-100 California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program: emissions of greenhouse gases." These disclosures include detailed information about the policies' focus, such as renewable energy generation, and their geographical scope, such as the United States and California. Flex Ltd has also provided detailed accounts of its lobbying mechanisms, such as the founder and CEO of NEXTracker providing testimony to the House Committee on Natural Resources Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources, lobbying in Sacramento, California, and engaging with the Bureau of Land Management. The company has consistently identified its lobbying targets, including the California state assembly and specific legislative bodies, reflecting a high level of transparency. Furthermore, Flex Ltd has been explicit about the outcomes it seeks, such as advocating for "the lowest levelized cost of producing energy through solar" by opposing tariffs, reforming the Bureau of Land Management's Competitive Leasing Rule, and supporting California's goal of 100% renewable energy by 2015. These desired outcomes are clearly articulated and tied to specific policy changes, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to disclosing its climate lobbying efforts and objectives. | 4 |
