Energy and climate management

Energy and climate management

We support our clients in the introduction of an integrated energy and climate management system to successfully monitor and track the transformation process and fulfill regulatory requirements.

High regulatory requirements and dynamic markets

For a successful climate transformation, companies must continuously monitor the implementation of their initial transformation plan and adapt it accordingly in response to deviations in target fulfillment, dynamic developments on the energy, emissions and technology markets, or changes in regulatory conditions.

At the same time, reporting in the context of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires proof of progress in climate management and reporting on the current status of the transformation towards a 1.5°C-compatible business model.

New opportunities for competitive advantage

Ongoing climate management enables companies to actively manage decarbonization, proactively address deviations from targets, and adapt to changing conditions. In addition to ensuring regulatory compliance, there are opportunities to gain a competitive edge with customers and employees, enhance the company’s reputation, improve supplier ratings, facilitate access to capital, and reduce costs by taking advantage of current subsidies and leveraging opportunities and mitigating risks in the energy and emissions markets.

Path to Zero combines the necessary expertise and the right tooling

Our methodologies and software provide an integrated view of energy and climate management, as well as a holistic view of procurement, energy supply, energy conversion, flexibility, production and energy efficiency. With our decide software, you can update transformation plans at the touch of a button to reflect changing conditions and quantify the effectiveness of planned and implemented climate change measures – from the individual plant to the entire corporate group. With decide , you can measure decarbonization progress and regularly update your roadmap. We support your external and internal reporting with automated reports and informative dashboards.
