Climate and sustainability insights
Protect value and unlock growth through sustainability
In today’s rapidly changing world, executives face complex business challenges—from surging energy demand to supply-chain volatility, leveraging tax incentives to building resilience, and allocating capital to unlocking value from data. These aren’t just pressures—they’re decision points. And with challenge comes opportunity.
Finding that opportunity means understanding how sustainability enables strategic business decisions.
Whether it’s strategic capital allocation, designing sustainable operations, harnessing sustainability data for business decisions, accessing credits and incentives, or modernising infrastructure—embedding sustainability into your business strategy can help you protect value and unlock growth.
Business-led strategies for sustainability
Protecting value at risk
Extreme weather events, geopolitics, and other factors are putting significant value at risk for companies.
To build resilience and efficiently manage costs, it’s crucial to understand howclimate risk impacts financial, operational, and supply-chain vulnerabilities. This insight enables you to drive growth and deliver tangible results.
But it’s not just about managing risk. You need to navigate these complexities with clarity and confidence to adapt, embrace new opportunities, and focus on shaping the future with confidence.
Managing increasing energy demand and infrastructure
The surge in global energy demand—accelerated by AI and tech—is putting infrastructure and margins under strain. Businesses face a challenge: optimising energy efficiency and expenditure while modernising infrastructure and maintaining access to clean, secure energy.
Taking control of your energy needs can enable cost-effective growth through clean energy, digital infrastructure, and strategic energy programmes that align with climate and business goals.
Rethinking the rise in energy demand can unlock sustainable, cost-effective opportunities for your business.
Building resilient supply chains
Your supply chains are facing significant pressure. Shifting tariffs, geopolitical tensions and escalating climate risks are straining operations worldwide. Add to this the rising demand for transparency and traceability and it’s clear that amodernised supply chain isn’t just a preference—it’s a necessity. With a deeper understanding of what’s happening today and what’s to come, you can make better sense of all the noise.
To overcome challenges and stay ahead, reconfigure your supply chain—enhancing transparency and traceability, and accelerating innovation.
Unlocking value from tax credits and incentives
There is tremendous opportunity for businesses to draw ontax credits and other incentives to lower the cost of investing in clean technology, make sustainable investments more attractive, and reduce your carbon footprint. But how can you successfully navigate the range of incentives, cash grants, and policies available to find the right course for your organisation?
It’s all about bringing together the right resources, at the right time, to help you make smart funding choices that shape your future—accelerating results while reducing expenses and your carbon footprint.
Navigating regulatory and data complexity
Navigating regulatory and data complexity is more challenging than ever. To make holistic and strategic business decisions, you’ve got to seamlessly integrate diverse data sources and stay ahead of constant changes in regulation. The power of AI can help you unlock insights and harness potential from your data to create more value in your business and keep you ahead in a fast-changing world.
Understanding the current landscape while keeping a keen eye on the future can help your business stay ahead of regulations, avoid potential disruption and penalties, and prepare for what’s next.
