SLR is recognised for its differentiated climate risk, mitigation and adaptation services, and notable best-in-class services for physical climate risk analysis.

The latest edition of the Green Quadrant: Climate Change Consulting (2025) report by independent research firm Verdantix, ranks SLR in the Specialist Quadrant. The Green Quadrant is a premier quantitative assessment methodology by Verdantix, used to assist buyers in selecting vendors across multiple climate change consulting services. This latest report recognises SLR’s strong capabilities and wealth of expertise to deliver climate risk, mitigation and adaptation strategies, particularly for global firms in asset-intensive industries and public sector organisations.

Research carried out by Verdantix reveal organisations that recognise the physical risks – such as supply chain disruptions – are increasingly integrating climate considerations into their core strategies, confident that emissions reductions will drive long-term competitive advantage through cost savings and future-proofed investments. As momentum behind net-zero commitments slows, financial institutions in particular, are increasingly shifting their focus toward managing physical climate risks and strengthening resilience.

The 2025 report recognises SLR for providing market-leading services in physical climate risk analysis, demonstrating strong capabilities in climate transition analysis and integrated expertise across energy transition, engineering, and environmental services - making us well positioned to develop and implement effective climate mitigation and adaptation strategies with the potential to enhance climate digital transformation through our robust ecosystem of partnerships for point-climate solutions.

This underscores our strengths in climate mitigation and adaptation, particularly our investment in providing more specialist solutions in decarbonisation strategies; pathway developments; analysis and implementation. This fully supports SLR’s commitment in partnering with clients from strategy right through to execution, helping them to navigate climate risks and build long-term resilience. Once again, being recognised in this report is a real credit and testament to our team’s capabilities.”
