A climate strategy enables companies to live up to their responsibility for climate change and set specific targets and measures to reduce CO2 emissions. In addition, a decarbonization strategy facilitates compliance with legal requirements such as the CSRD or the Supply Chain Sustainability Act, increases operational efficiency and credibility. Companies that act as pioneers are already setting themselves ambitious targets such as climate neutrality (net zero).
We work with you to develop a holistic climate strategy that meets the requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standard (ESRS E1). We analyze your current and planned corporate practices, identify emission drivers and reduction potential and help you to define ambitious but achievable targets - always with a view to current benchmarks and funding opportunities such as BAFA Module 5 for transformation plans.

Developing a climate strategy that is both ambitious and feasible, underpinned by practical measures and comprehensible for all stakeholders (employees, investors, suppliers, partners, etc.) is very challenging for most companies. Even those who are not aiming for climate neutrality and thus a net-zero strategy have to reconcile sustainability efforts and economic goals and integrate some major changes into corporate practice.
Five Glaciers Consulting supports you in developing a climate strategy that is consistently aligned with global and EU-wide requirements. Based on the detailed calculation of your greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1-3), we work with you to develop ambitious climate targets that are nevertheless realistically achievable. We formulate climate strategies and targets in such a way that they are intuitively understandable, comprehensible and convincing for all relevant stakeholders. When developing the strategy, we take into account possible funding potential such as the BAFA Module 5.
Five Glaciers supported us in drawing up our climate strategy and turned it into a concept that is comprehensible and motivating for all employees and suppliers!

A climate strategy defines measures and targets to reduce a company's greenhouse gas emissions in line with scientific guidelines and regulatory requirements. It helps companies to meet legal requirements such as the CSRD (ESRS E1), SBTi targets and the EU taxonomy. A clear climate strategy improves competitiveness and reduces financial and physical climate risks.
Success is measured using KPIs such as CO₂ reduction rates, the proportion of renewable energy, energy efficiency gains and climate risk assessments. Many companies use recognized frameworks such as GRI, TCFD and SBTi to document their progress. Transparent reporting and regular audits strengthen the trust of investors and stakeholders.
Yes, companies with a clear climate strategy benefit from efficiency gains, an enhanced reputation and often also market opportunities. In addition, costs can be reduced in the long term through energy savings and optimized processes.
The first step is the detailed calculation of emissions (corporate carbon footprint). Based on this, reduction measures are prioritized, climate scenarios are analysed and internal responsibilities are defined. Successful companies actively involve their employees, suppliers and customers in the strategy and use digital ESG reporting tools.
A climate strategy focuses specifically on measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the transition to a climate-neutral economy. A sustainability strategy, on the other hand, is broader in scope and, in addition to the aspects mentioned above, includes other environmental, social and overarching goals such as fair working conditions, resource conservation and ethical corporate governance. Both strategies are linked, but the sustainability strategy has a more holistic perspective.
