Direct Lobbying Transparency

---|---|---|
Limited | Quanta Computer provides only limited insight into its climate-policy lobbying. It signals that it is active on broad policy areas—mentioning “carbon tax,” “emissions trading schemes,” “electricity grid access for renewables,” and wider work on “adaptation and/or resilience to climate change”—but it does not name any specific bills, regulations or government programmes, so it is impossible to identify the exact measures it has tried to influence. The company describes its approach in general terms, saying it has “push[ed] the local government to provide the approach to purchase the renewable energy in China mainland” and has “integrate[d] with government to move forward the carbon tax,” which confirms that some direct engagement occurs, yet it offers no detail on the concrete mechanisms used (such as formal meetings, written submissions or coalition activity) and identifies the target only as the unspecified “local government” in China. Likewise, the intended outcomes are expressed only in broad strokes—advocating for a pathway to buy renewable power and advancing a carbon-tax framework—without clarifying the specific amendments, stringency levels or timelines it is seeking. As a result, while the company acknowledges that it engages policymakers on climate issues, the absence of concrete policy names, detailed lobbying methods and clearly articulated end-goals means the disclosure remains cursory. | 1 |
