Infosys Ltd demonstrates a comprehensive level of transparency regarding its climate lobbying activities. The company identifies specific areas of policy engagement, including renewable energy uptake, green electricity tariff programs, and energy efficiency in buildings, and highlights its efforts to shape solar policies across multiple Indian states. It discloses various direct and indirect lobbying mechanisms, such as collaborating with power distribution companies to facilitate renewable energy access, working closely with state governments to influence policy frameworks, and participating in coalitions to propose recommendations for corporate renewable energy procurement. Infosys also articulates the outcomes it aims to achieve, such as enabling larger corporate adoption of renewable power, creating conducive tariff mechanisms for its campuses, and reducing barriers to meet RE100 commitments. By naming both the targets it engages with and the policy changes it seeks, Infosys offers clear insight into its climate policy lobbying objectives and activities.

Infosys demonstrates strong governance in its climate lobbying alignment processes. The company explicitly outlines its approach to ensuring that engagement activities are consistent with its climate change strategy, stating that "the teams that are engaged with external organizations have clearly defined goals with objectives aligned to our climate change strategy." It identifies responsible parties, including "the President, Head of Green Initiatives/Facilities" and "the Regional Head Infrastructure," who lead advocacy efforts in areas such as renewable power and clean technologies. Governance mechanisms include periodic reviews, as "the strategy is reviewed on a quarterly basis and budgets are allocated on a yearly basis to run the programs." Oversight is further reinforced through structures like "our work with external organizations is taken up by different units like green Initiatives, Risk council, Facilities, etc.," with activities "periodically reviewed at the board level committee of ESG, CSR, and Risk Management committee along with inputs from the President, Head, and other senior leaders in the company." This indicates a defined governance process with monitoring details and responsible parties, ensuring alignment of climate lobbying activities with the company's climate goals.
