KPMG professionals understand the energy transition.
The energy transition stands as the defining challenge of our era. Every sector faces mounting pressure to power human progress in a way that is reliable and affordable but also, critically, more sustainable and equitable.
You've taken the bold step of committing to emissions reduction. Now, your employees, investors, regulators, and customers eagerly await your action.
It's time to accelerate your efforts and move forward decisively — with a clear sense of purpose and urgency.
Perhaps you're uncertain about where to begin, how to overcome obstacles, or how to identify the opportunities. What areas should you prioritize? What technologies, funding, and expertise are required?
Most importantly, how do you rally everyone to embrace this journey?
KPMG professionals are here to help guide you through this increasingly complex landscape, enabling you to deliver on your ambitions for your business, people and the planet.
Let's embark on this transformation together. Together we can light the way forward for your energy transition journey.
KPMG professionals can help you navigate the increasingly complex landscape of incentives, grants and environmental taxes to optimize funding, manage costs and remain compliant, all supported by the KPMG global ESG tax database and organization of tax specialists. Considering carbon trading? KPMG professionals can help you assess the tax implications of engaging with this emerging market.
Corporations are now key players in the global transition to decarbonize economies by 2050, with electricity consumption accounting for a significant share of their carbon footprint. KPMG professionals recognize that energy procurement, once seen as a mere cost, has transformed into a strategic avenue for risk mitigation and value creation. With mounting stakeholder pressure and evolving government policies, corporations have embraced diverse options to help reduce their carbon emissions related to electricity consumption, ranging from innovative energy efficiency programs to equity investments in renewable generation assets.
One crucial tool in this decarbonization journey is the Corporate Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). This approach allows companies to directly purchase electricity from energy generators, bypassing traditional utilities. PPAs offer a range of potential benefits, from facilitating decarbonization through green power adoption to immediate cost savings and risk reduction. KPMG firms offer a wide-ranging suite of services, from advising on global PPA opportunities to full implementation support, leveraging the global organization of firms and their strong developer relationships to deliver holistic energy solutions. KPMG professionals’ expertise covers risk mitigation strategies, trading strategies for renewable platforms, and ESG reporting to help ensure that the transition to cleaner energy aligns with your sustainability goals.
KPMG firms strive to lead the way in low carbon fuels (LCF) consulting, deal advisory, tax, and legal services across the entire supply chain. As industry leaders and deep subject matter professionals in LCF, KPMG professionals provide broad support with tested tools and methodologies from global decarbonization projects. The team can help actively engage with industry and governments to strategically support clients in navigating regulatory changes and capturing opportunities.
KPMG professionals’ expertise extends to driving deal value in a decarbonizing economy, from M&A support to investment analytics, structuring, and execution, aligning decarbonization vision with enterprise strategy and offering wide-ranging transformation support. KPMG firms’ services also promote sustainable supply chains, particularly in the transportation decarbonization space, covering marine, aviation, and mobility. Addressing key challenges in LCF, from awareness and availability to affordability, acceptability, and accountability, KPMG firms’ services encompass commercial and regulatory advice, opportunity screening, bid preparation, modeling, economic analysis, market entry assessment, partnering strategy, and operating model development. Work with your local KPMG professional to navigate your low carbon fuels journey across various assets and geographies.

In doing so, you can unlock the opportunities that a more sustainable supply chain brings.
