Climate Leadership Coalition (CLC) is pleased to welcome Ernst & Young (EY) as a new member of the coalition. EY brings deep business-driven sustainability expertise, extensive Nordic and global networks, and vast experience in supporting companies in accelerating the clean transition across industries.

Sustainability is one of EY's global strategic focus areas. Globally, EY has set ambitious emissions reduction targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and has been ranked as the number #1 leading sustainability consultancy globally by Verdantix (2026).

EY has strong expertise in decarbonization strategies, renewable energy, and sustainable finance, including public grants and incentives. EY’s integrated sustainability advisory model brings together expertise across assurance, consulting, tax & law, and strategy & transactions. This enables EY to support end‑to‑end clean transition projects, from carbon accounting, reporting and transition finance to tax incentives, strategic planning, and technology implementation.

“We look forward to joining forces with Climate Leadership Coalition and collaborating with its member organizations in leading the commercially viable transition towards net zero and beyond. While uncertain market conditions prevail, we believe that putting long-term vision into action and leveraging strong partnerships today will give confidence in shaping the future and unlocking new growth opportunities driven by clean transition.”

"We are very pleased to welcome EY to the Climate Leadership Coalition network. EY brings strong sustainability expertise, a broad international perspective, and deep experience in supporting companies through the clean transition. EY’s capabilities will strengthen our coalition’s work to scale credible, business driven climate solutions."

Having EY join the coalition reinforces the collective expertise needed to drive systemic change and scale sustainable business practices. With its extensive cross-industry experience, EY contributes to CLC’s mission of demonstrating how climate action can strengthen long term competitiveness and value creation across complex global value chains.

As Europe’s leading non-profit climate-business network, CLC represents member organizations that collectively employ over a million people worldwide. CLC’s members believe that a profound transition to a sustainable world is imperative, economically beneficial and financeable.
