Crafting cost-effective decarbonization strategies and climate transition plans on the journey to achieving net-zero emissions demands a comprehensive approach that balances environmental ambition with economic feasibility. During this panel discussion, we will explore:

  • Turning consumption and emissions data into action, and enabling real and significant progress toward a lower organizational footprint
  • Conducting thorough assessments of current emissions sources and identifying opportunities for emissions reduction across operations and supply chains
  • Implementing technology-driven solutions and innovative practices to enhance energy efficiency, reduce carbon footprint, and optimize resource utilization
  • Engaging with stakeholders, including investors, regulators, and local communities, to foster collaboration and garner support for decarbonization initiatives
  • Establishing clear targets, timelines, and performance metrics to track progress towards net-zero goals and hold stakeholders accountable for implementation efforts
