The Net Zero-as-a-Service (NZaaS) market is projected to grow from USD 6.3 billion in 2026 to USD 96 billion by 2036. This growth is driven by corporate net-zero commitments and stricter ESG disclosure requirements, with carbon accounting and GHG measurement currently leading the service sector. Industry trends show a shift from simple emissions reporting toward operational execution. New platforms are integrating AI and IoT to move beyond visibility, focusing on real-time monitoring and automated workflows to reduce actual emissions in manufacturing and supply chains.

The shift from reporting to execution is the only way this actually works. Reporting is just paperwork. The real challenge is how these services handle the gap between a corporate pledge and the actual procurement rules needed to lower Scope 3 emissions.

Exactly. You can have all the AI carbon intelligence you want, but if the local grid cannot handle the new load from electrification, the execution phase hits a wall. I wonder how many of these NZaaS providers actually account for interconnection timelines in their planning.

Manufacturing is listed as a lead industry here. In my experience, the software is the easy part. The hard part is finding the labor to actually install the heat pumps or upgrade the boilers that the AI recommends. Software cannot turn a wrench.

That is the missing detail in most of these reports. They forecast billions in software and consulting revenue but rarely mention the capital expenditure or the workforce gap for the physical retrofits.
