Everest Group today announced the release of its latest report, Top 10 Game-changing Sustainability Technologies, a forward-looking analysis of the innovations poised to redefine how global enterprises achieve sustainability goals across energy, transportation, and industrial supply chains.
With climate action and ESG performance now central to business strategy, the report identifies 10 breakthrough technologies that are transforming how organizations decarbonize operations, improve resource efficiency, and transition to circular economic models.
Cecilia Van Cauwenberghe, research director, Everest Group:
“Sustainability is no longer just a compliance or reputational concern; it is a competitive imperative. Our new report highlights the emerging technologies that enterprise leaders need to watch, invest in, and integrate into long-term strategies to future-proof their operations.”
Key themes and technology insights
The report centers on three overarching themes critical to sustainability transformation:
- Energy transition – Solutions such as third-generation solar photovoltaics and small modular reactors are enabling more efficient, scalable, and distributed clean energy.
- Industrial and transportation decarbonization – Innovations like solid-state batteries, high-temperature electrolyzers, and liquid organic hydrogen carriers are addressing emissions from traditionally hard-to-abate sectors.
- Sustainable supply chain and circular economy – Technologies including waste valorization, bio-inspired plastics, and advanced oxidation processes are redefining how enterprises manage materials across the value chain.
Also featured is an in-depth look at Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS), an essential technology for organizations with unavoidable emissions.
Driving innovation and market readiness
Each technology is evaluated for its market maturity, potential to disrupt traditional models, and relevance to enterprise transformation. Everest Group’s analysis provides decision-makers with a framework for understanding where to invest, what barriers to anticipate, and how to align innovation with sustainability KPIs.
