Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
None Albemarle Corp’s disclosures focus exclusively on oversight of its climate strategy and related emissions reporting—there is detailed information that “Our senior executive leadership will review progress on our climate strategy on an ongoing basis” and that “The Health, Safety & Environment (HS&E) Committee is responsible for overseeing (among other items) our climate strategy including energy consumption and our greenhouse gas emissions.” However, we found no evidence of any governance process, oversight structure, or explicit mechanisms to align or review its lobbying activities—whether direct engagement with policymakers or indirect engagement through trade associations—with its climate change strategy. The company does not disclose who oversees lobbying or how such activities are monitored or managed, and we found no reference to aligning external policy engagement with its climate goals.

Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited Albemarle provides only limited insight into its climate-policy lobbying. It cites engagement on one identifiable measure—the EU Battery Regulation—but does not list any other specific laws or rule-makings it seeks to influence or explicitly confirm that this is the full extent of its policy engagement. The company indicates that it works “through industry associations such as Eurometaux and the International Lithium Association” and takes part in initiatives like the Battery Passport Initiative, suggesting indirect lobbying mechanisms; however, it does not describe concrete actions—such as submissions, letters, or meetings—nor name the government bodies or individual officials that are the targets of its advocacy. Its discussion of desired outcomes remains general, referring to support for the energy transition, sustainable battery supply chains and alignment with the EU Battery Regulation, but it does not spell out the specific regulatory changes, amendments or quantitative objectives it is promoting. Together, these fragments demonstrate only a basic acknowledgement of climate-related lobbying without substantive detail on policies, methods or outcomes.
