Even if you are tired of hearing about carbon reduction goals you may want to pay attention to this article about what’s happening in Europe, and how it will impact thousands of U.S. companies.

Europe has long been a leader in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) development, which is why the European Union (EU) is currently working on sustainable reporting standards for EU companies. This is part of an ongoing push to better regulate (ESG). As a result, the EU has implemented new ESG reporting requirements for companies doing business in Europe. These requirements are designed to promote transparency and sustainability in corporate operations and investments. Known as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, or CSRD, it will impact approximately 10,000 U.S. companies, according to a recent study by Refinitiv.

U.S companies doing business in Europe must comply with these new regulations.

For U.S. companies subject to the new European ESG reporting requirements, compliance can be a daunting task. They cover a wide range of issues, from carbon emissions to social responsibility. Gridwealth, a leading provider of renewable energy and sustainability solutions can help U.S. companies impacted by these new guidelines, which are expected to go into effect as early as 2025.

Early action to improve compliance with these regulations will provide companies who adopt ESG improvements with a competitive advantage. Gridwealth is here to help.

Gridwealth offers the following services to help support ESG requirements:

• Revenue Generating Rooftop Solar Systems. Gridwealth builds, owns, and operates rooftop solar systems for U.S. companies. These systems generate clean, renewable energy and can help companies reduce their carbon footprint.

• Revenue Generating Parking Lot Canopy Solar Systems. These are installed on top of parking areas and provide shade for parked cars while generating clean energy.

• Revenue Generating Battery Storage Systems. These can be used in conjunction with rooftop and parking lot canopy solar systems to store excess energy generated during the day. They help companies become more energy efficient and reduce their reliance on fossil fuels.

• Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) and Carbon offsets. RECs are certificates that represent the environmental benefits of renewable energy generation. Carbon offsets, on the other hand, represent the reduction or avoidance of greenhouse gas emissions. Both products help companies offset their carbon emissions and demonstrate their commitment to sustainability.

• A host of other ESG-related products and services for companies, including conducting sustainability audits and developing sustainability policies and initiatives.

Gridwealth’s offerings are not only beneficial for U.S. companies doing business in Europe, but they can help U.S. companies—of all sizes—improve their sustainability and reduce their U.S. carbon footprint.

By adopting Gridwealth’s renewable energy and sustainability solutions, U.S. companies can improve their ESG reporting metrics and gain a competitive advantage over those who fail to act.

In conclusion, U.S. companies doing business in Europe face new ESG requirements that can be challenging to meet. Gridwealth can help these companies comply by providing renewable energy systems, RECs, carbon offsets, and other ESG-related products and services. By working with Gridwealth, these companies can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and improve their environmental performance. Maybe it’s time to invest in renewable energy and sustainability solutions and be ahead of your competitors, and a U.S. leader in the transition to a low-carbon future.
