2024 Outlook: Tools to focus your business on energy sustainability for the year ahead
Record-breaking temperatures in 2023 highlight the urgent need for businesses to grapple with increasing disruptions caused by climate-related events. Company stakeholders are also turning up the pressure, calling for transparency and accountability in carbon accounting strategies. While companies know they need to act, the journey to net zero emissions is not straightforward.
We consulted our CLEAResult energy sustainability experts and dug up the top three decarbonization trends for 2024, so your business can be proactive and well positioned for success in this emerging landscape. Our 2024 Energy Sustainability Outlook Report delves into:
- Funding opportunities: Billions of dollars are being allocated to assist businesses in reducing their carbon footprint. It is crucial to apply for these funds promptly.
- Greater carbon accountability: Regulators and stakeholders are calling for greater transparency and accountability. Companies that establish a system to comprehensively understand and account for their emissions will be better positioned to lead the market.
- Expect the unexpected: It is essential for organizations to evaluate their climate-related risks and develop resiliency plans to mitigate future disruptions.
Take advantage of funding: Billions of dollars in funding is being made available for businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint. Applying for funds in good time is imperative.
Implement a carbon accounting system: Both regulators and stakeholders are demanding transparency and accountability, and those with a system in place to understand and account for their emissions will be in a stronger position to stay ahead.
Develop a resilience plan: Organizations must assess their climate-related risks and build contingency plans against future disruption.

ENERGY, UTILITIES, & SUSTAINABILITY CONSULTANT, IU HEALTHDwight Klippel"The IU health participants found value in the seminars throughout the year, including the information shared and the interaction with other participants.
