Wealthy Progress: UK Efforts to Reach Net Zero Ambitions Are Underpinning Revenue Growth

Over the five years through 2022-23, revenue is slated to swell at a compound annual rate of 2.6% to £2.3 billion, thanks to successful contract wins and the UK's efforts towards its net zero ambitions. Many of the largest environment consultancy firms operate in engineering and infrastructure provision and consultancy and benefit from providing environmental consulting services alongside these. New regulation targeting net-zero emissions by 2050 has encouraged downstream firms to act more sustainably, supporting demand for environmental consultants; for example, £12 billion of domestic green investment occurred between March 2020 and October 2021.
