PwC Climate & Sustainability

Build competitive advantage by integrating sustainability

Business leaders are facing a complex landscape—shifting regulations, changing tax and tariffs, rising energy costs and supply chains exposed to climate risks. Our holistic approach and sustainability mindset can help you adapt and set a foundation for long-term success.

Navigate regulation, report with confidence

Clear, consistent reporting of sustainability metrics is essential to building trust with investors, regulators and stakeholders. We work alongside your teams to cut through complexity and stay ahead of evolving requirements worldwide. We go beyond compliance—helping you communicate the full value your business creates, so reporting shows what matters, not just what’s required.

And with reliable ESG data, systems and controls, you’re better positioned for independent assurance and long-term impact.

Explore our sustainability reporting, sustainability assurance and tax sustainability services.

Protect value and enhance resilience

Climate and biodiversity risks are escalating. Knowing and managing your exposure to physical risks is a necessity—it’s smart business.

We support clients in identifying, managing and reporting on financial risks related to climate, nature and social issues across their operations and value chains. With our offerings in climate risk, resilience and adaptation, net-zero transformation, nature and biodiversity and social sustainability, we work with you to enhance your resilience and see your business more clearly.

Maximise business value

Sustainability isn’t just about responsibility. It can drive value—if you identify the right opportunities. When sustainable practices are embedded across operations and supply chains, companies can reduce energy demand, boost efficiency and uncover new growth opportunities. The energy transition is also generating new opportunities for green products, services and infrastructure.

Sustainability is a strategic factor in deals. By integrating climate insight into M&A strategy and valuations, you can protect against downside risks and find new ways to create value. Within the finance function, a sustainability mindset can create value—from accessing tax incentives to driving more informed, future-ready decision-making.

From our services in net-zero transformation and energy solutions, to sustainable capital and tax—we connect the dots to turn ambition into measurable impact.
