The Energy Sustainability Advantage

    How aligning power procurement with decarbonization can manage market risk and deliver 2030 goals

     

    Wednesday 18 November 2026 - 3 PM CET

    Many companies have established ambitious targets to reduce their carbon emissions, yet most still rely on energy efficiency projects at individual sites that are reaching their limits, or on last-minute purchases of renewable energy certificates that can be affected by market volatility.

    In this webinar, we will explore how energy buyers and sustainability managers can collaborate to close the "execution gap".

    We will discuss how to evaluate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) plan purchases of Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) prepare for hourly matching standards and centralize utility data to ensure companies are ready for audits and sustainability reporting requirements, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) in the European Union and other global disclosure rules, without unnecessarily increasing energy costs.

    • Navigating Market Volatility & Certificate Inflation: Why the era of cheap, reactive annual certificate buying is over, and how multi-year hedging and forward curves protect operating budgets.

    • Closing the Scope 1 & 2 Execution Gap: How to evaluate when site-level efficiency has peaked and how to transition toward off-site PPAs/VPPAs, structured green tariffs, and on-site solar.

    • Preparing for Emerging Scope 2 Rules: What proposed changes to the GHG Protocol (including temporal/hourly matching and deliverability) mean for your current procurement contracts and SBTi commitments.

    • A Pragmatic Joint Operating Model: How procurement and sustainability teams can establish a shared baseline, evaluate carbon criteria in energy tenders, and justify investments to executive leadership by proving net energy cost savings.

    • Audit-Ready Data Centralization: How centralizing global invoice and meter data on a unified platform like ePoint eliminates spreadsheet errors, streamlines CDP/CSRD reporting, and provides verified data trails for third-party assurance. 

     

    Who should attend:

    • Heads of Energy Procurement & Category Buyers looking to evaluate PPAs, hedge certificate market volatility, and align power contracts with corporate carbon targets.

    • Sustainability Directors, ESG Managers & Carbon Leads seeking to understand the commercial and contractual mechanics required to achieve Scope 2 reduction milestones.

    • Finance Directors & Controllers responsible for energy budgeting, commodity risk management, and capital allocation for clean energy investments.

    • Operations & Site Energy Managers balancing facility energy efficiency with electrification and on-site generation.
