Bettercoal Code
Bettercoal
Bettercoal is a membership organisation established by major European utilities (coal buyers) to promote responsible production in the coal supply chain.
The Bettercoal Code comprises a series of ten ethical, social and environmental principles and provisions for coal mining. Coal producers are assessed against these principles by independent third parties.

The ESG Coverage of a standard or regulation outlines the high and mid-level ESG topics that a standard or regulation covers, and at the highest level of analysis, specific binary statements that can be used to determine exactly what the requirements are. These statements are cross-standard compatible, allowing you to compare the exact coverage areas of multiple standards or regulations.
This data has been compiled and is continually updated by analysts at TDi Sustainability, and is backed by decades of standards analysis expertise.
