Accor has built a credible reporting infrastructure and secured SBTi validation, but absolute emissions are flat-to-rising post-2019 despite net-zero claims. Scope 3 is growing, not shrinking. Energy transition is minimal, renewable electricity percentage undisclosed, and near-term targets are already off-track.
