As day 1 of the Reuters Energy Transition event in London comes to a close, it is clear that now more than ever we must ACT on further enhancing and operationalising the role of low carbon energy, building resilient and secure supply chains and increased collaboration. Deloitte’s very own Wendy Rudder and Johannes Wiik hosted an energizing discussion on collaboration across systems to accelerate the European #energytransition. Key take aways: 1/ collaboration across value chains is needed and new business models are to be build, 2/ a clear call for derisking and financial support to scale the new businesses and 3/ a different view on the role of carbon capture across industries exists (power vs heavy duty industry). #ETEU2024

But with less than half of corporate boards discussing energy intensity, there's a need for urgent action.

Our latest report on the ever-growing importance of #sustainability and with clear signs of a shift in the business climate action is here. #netzero #lowcarbon #climatefinance This is the third edition of Deloitte's 2024 CxO Sustainability Report surveyed over 2,100 executives across 27 countries on their views and strategies related to climate change and sustainability. #deloittecxosurvey2024 The report shows that climate change remains a top three issue for global C-suite level business leaders (CxOs), surpassing political uncertainty, competition for talent, and the changing regulatory environment, among others. A key indicator of climate’s staying power on leaders’ agendas is that 85% of CxOs say they have increased investments in sustainability in the past year from 75% in 2023-and half have started to implement technology solutions to help achieve climate goals #keyfindings
