Robust and transparent climate reporting is no longer optional for businesses but becoming essential and critical in an increasing number of jurisdictions around the world. As countries across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region step up to implement mandatory climate reporting standards, businesses are tasked with adapting swiftly to these new regulations. EP&T Global, with its deep roots and extensive experience in building energy monitoring, efficiency and reporting in commercial real estate, is uniquely positioned to guide property owners, financial, asset and fund managers through this evolving landscape.
The APAC region is witnessing a significant shift in regulatory requirements, with countries like Australia and Singapore leading the charge for mandatory climate reporting. From January 2025, Australia will require larger companies to adhere to new International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards, with smaller firms joining by 2027. Singapore will roll out its requirements in 2025 for listed companies, expanding to larger non-listed companies by 2027. These changes underscore a global alignment towards standardising climate-related financial disclosures, making it imperative for businesses to harness accurate and comprehensive environmental data.
