Sustainability and ESG services
Sustainability can fuel growth, strengthen resilience and protect value
Business leaders are facing challenges due to market pressures
In a rapidly changing world that demands results, companies are facing a complex set of challenges — navigating evolving sustainability regulations, managing and allocating capital, controlling surging energy costs and tapping into overlooked tax incentives. At the same time, they are expected to address supply chain risks, meet growing consumer demand for sustainable products and stay ahead of climate risks, shifting market dynamics and the accelerating rise of AI.
A sustainability mindset and strategy can serve as the foundation for long-term business success, acting as a catalyst for both growth and value protection.
How PwC can help you navigate market pressures
Sustainability strategy and operations
Sustainability can be your growth engine. Sustainability can drive business value when embedded throughout a company’s strategy, operations and culture. PwC can help define and deliver your decarbonization strategies, manage capital allocation, navigate the energy transition to reduce energy demands, mitigate physical and financial risks through climate risk modeling and build supply chains that can create product sustainability, while improving operational resilience.
Understanding how climate-related risks and opportunities can impact strategy — both current challenges and future uncertainties — enables companies to protect value at risk and enhance performance and quality to spur growth.
ESG reporting and independent assurance
Enhance reporting and independent assurance processes. Whether it’s voluntary or regulatory driven, reporting on sustainability metrics can build trust with investors, regulators and other stakeholders. We leverage deep regulatory knowledge to guide companies through complex disclosure requirements such as the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (and the EU Omnibus proposal) and California’s climate disclosure requirements (plus, the SEC climate-related rules depending on the outcome of legal challenges). We can help you develop the controls and processes you need prior to building your ESG strategies and reporting to help produce consistent and reliable sustainability data that meets high standards for accuracy and accountability. PwC can also help align your sustainability disclosures with the standards of financial reporting, increasing transparency and enabling you to obtain independent assurance.
Sustainable technology and AI
Tech-enabled solutions to drive change. PwC helps companies use sustainability data as a strategic asset, embedding it across finance, operations and supply chains to drive growth, improve profitability and reduce costs while achieving sustainable outcomes. Leveraging AI, advanced analytics and our technology alliance ecosystem, we have sector-specific knowledge to help you stay one step ahead. We also guide businesses through digital and regulatory transformations, so they can stay ahead in an evolving sustainability landscape.
Sustainability tax
Integrating tax into sustainability. PwC’s holistic sustainability tax services address a broad range of sustainability needs, from managing regulatory compliance to leveraging tax benefits such as the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act) tax credits. Our tailored, data-driven tax solutions can address the unique needs of each industry and business size, helping align strategy with sustainability targets, whether it’s for renewable investments, emissions reduction or sustainable infrastructure projects. Over time, we can help your organization navigate the nuances of tax regulations in various regions.
What is sustainability?
At PwC, sustainability represents the integration of environmental, social and governance issues into corporate strategy to drive outcomes that can position companies for long-term success. It means helping our clients create and protect value and meet regulatory requirements by providing practical strategies and execution experience that span four key areas: strategy and operations, reporting and independent assurance, technology and AI, and tax.
