The EU aims to achieve a 42.5% renewable energy share by 2030.
Environmental consultants play a crucial role in conducting feasibility studies, assessing environmental impacts, and guiding renewable energy projects. Also, energy-intensive industries are adopting energy-saving technologies to comply with the energy efficiency directive, driving demand for consulting services to develop carbon reduction strategies and energy management solutions.
The construction industry in Europe is focused on following sustainable building practices and reducing environmental impact. Environmental consultants are hired to ensure compliance with regulations regarding land use, waste management, and emissions. They also help implement green building certifications such as LEED WELL Building Standard and BREEAM.
Moreover, governments of various countries across Europe are investing in sustainable transport infrastructure, such as electric vehicle charging stations, green public transport systems, and low-emission zones, which also increases the need for environmental consulting services. In July 2024, the EU invested a record US$ 7.76 billion in sustainable, safe, and smart transport infrastructure.
Approximately 83% of the funding is likely to support projects that focus on achieving the EU’s climate goals. As a result, the need for environmental consulting services is increasing, including life-cycle assessments (LCAs), emissions reduction strategies, and sustainable supply chain management. Therefore, the growing demand for environmental consulting services across several industries is fueling the Environmental Consulting Service Market growth in Europe.
