The Future of Energy and climate change
The 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) took place beginning of November. This COP26 summit brought parties together to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and thus limit global warming to well below 2°C. While progress is being made, recent estimates suggest we are not on track to meet the Paris targets, and more must be done. At this COP26 hub, see how Deloitte connects bright minds to make an impact for the future.
Accelerate decarbonization and achieve meaningful energy targets by 2030
Companies and governments alike are evaluating how they can reduce their impact on the environment. Critically important to many of these initiatives is the reduction of carbon output—and decarbonization is very important in the energy transition. This report explores how companies in the Energy & Resources industry can accelerate decarbonization over the next decade and achieve meaningful energy targets by 2030.
Duurzaamheid in de bouw: integrale aanpak levenscyclus is nodig
Deloitte heeft onderzoek gedaan naar de grote trends die de Nederlandse bouwsector zullen gaan raken. Vrij snel werd duidelijk dat ‘duurzaamheid’ een van de majeure onderwerpen wordt. Wat is er op dat gebied al gebeurd in de bouw, en waar moet nog aan worden gewerkt?
Decarbonising aviation: Clear for take-off
Decarbonisation has become a global imperative and a priority for governments, companies, and society at large. This report is the third in a series by Deloitte and Shell, exploring the decarbonisation of harder-to-abate sectors. This research outlines the current state of the aviation sector, identifies the barriers to decarbonisation readiness, and proposes solutions and a flight plan to accelerate decarbonisation in the sector.
Heat is hot - Renewable Energy is the Future
This is a result of Deloitte calculations based on the target formulated in the climate accord. When making houses more sustainable, the transition from traditional gas to district heating cannot be realized without government incentives according to the calculations. The incentives required in the next 10 years are estimated at €3.0bn - €4,5bn.
Creating a viable hydrogen economy
Hydrogen is projected to play a key role in the future of energy and its development will happen faster than many might expect. Increasingly, business leaders understand they need to get a grip on hydrogen to understand where the opportunities will be. However, with so much hype around hydrogen it is difficult to keep an eye on the key trends and developments. Where will the transition to hydrogen unfold first, which supply technologies and distribution alternatives have most potential and which geopolitical regions are best positioned? This point of view addresses those questions and offers recommendations to policy makers and companies on how to position themselves optimally for the accelerated transition to come.

Healthy, sustainable, and responsibly sourced food: our bright future for 2050
What does our world look like in 2050? How can we create a food system without compromise that’s sustainable, healthy and even-handed? Which innovations bring about this system for food consumption, production and waste? This article explains Deloitte’s vision for the future of food. Our visions are invitations to clients, partners, and everyone who's future-minded to join us in envisaging – and accordingly shaping – a pleasant planet.
Decarbonizing the food system: Time is running out!
The recent COP 26 conference put decarbonization in the food system firmly back at the top of the agenda. Governments and the general public are demanding change. Carbon dioxide and other emissions, such as methane and nitrogen, must be reduced to achieve the sustainability targets that governments have agreed to. The food system forms a large part of this and must be transformed to ensure a sustainable future. If we want to realize net zero (or even carbon negative) emissions, that means we need to rethink how we produce, process and consume food.
COVID-19 has accelerated the global food system transformation
The COVID-19 pandemic fast-tracked the global food system transformation. Companies that recognise and respond well to the challenges while preparing for the time after the crisis are best prepared to thrive beyond the crisis.
