About

The EU’s new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is set to shake up reporting requirements for operators, contractors, and suppliers. Taking effect in phases starting in 2024, the directive demands greater transparency from buyers, requiring them to report across multiple areas while ensuring accurate value-chain tracking for Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

How can operators and contractors navigate this new reporting landscape smoothly? What steps have companies taken to stay ahead? Are subcontractors prepared for CSRD compliance? Who will shoulder the additional costs? And most importantly—will sustainability and rigorous reporting become the next big competitive advantage?

These questions will take center stage at The Energy Procurement & Supply Chain Summit (EPS) during OTD Energy 2025. The summit will bring together industry leaders to explore how CSRD compliance will impact procurement strategies, supplier relationships, and business competitiveness. Through expert presentations, in-depth discussions, and a high-level panel debate, attendees will gain practical insights into aligning with evolving reporting requirements while leveraging sustainability as a strategic advantage.
