INDUSTRY COMMENT
From Team Energy - Tom Anderton, head of customer success and Robert Webb, bureau operations manager
Whatever energy and emissions savings
organisations make must now be reported, in detail, and to the public. Robert Webb, bureau operations manager, lending his expertise on this topic.
Increasingly many companies are now in the scope of sustainability reporting. What do they need to be mindful of when it comes to data, Robert Webb?
Rob: “We’ve now reached the ‘tipping point’ where sustainability reporting, including energy and carbon reporting, is mandatory and the primary form of nonfinancial reporting driving investor decisions. Because of this, the expectations around the accuracy of organisations’ reporting have increased massively, causing almost all CFO and finance leaders to report problems with the nonfinancial data they receive. Visibility, consistency, incompleteness, and out-of-date data are the top issues such leaders face. Organisations must adopt smart systems to eliminate “single point of time” data, search for interoperable tools that can connect to organisation-wide BI and management systems and seek out expert support to get the right solution in place.”
and tech entrepreneurs to decarbonise the grid in the UK, and COP 29 had its first ever ‘digitalisation day’. In their own organisations, energy managers can use AI and data to get better insights into their energy estate, reduce their emissions, and mitigate the risks of energy security and climate change. On a larger scale it’s true that data and AI have energy costs associated with them,
but they’re often exaggerated, accounting for one or two per cent of energy use based on the International Energy Agency (IEA) figures. Compared to buildings, for example, that’s a small figure. And, importantly, the increase in AI can also help counter building energy use; so the small percentage increase incurred is made up for in savings.”
So, in conclusion, 2025 has many deadlines and key dates that organisations need to be prepared for. Acting now will enable them to make small steps towards better energy management, carbon reduction, and overall integrated reporting. Leaving it too late will be costly, the benefits will be lost, and key deadlines could have passed by. As we’ve seen, many organisations will be under more scrutiny in 2025 and beyond too. All stakeholders expect accurate sustainability reporting, and more of organisations’ complex emissions and energy reduction planning will be made public.
