British-American consulting giant Accenture has acquired Carbon Intelligence, a carbon strategy and climate change consulting firm with more than 160 sustainability experts. The company is recognized for its work in helping clients measure and manage their emissions.

Based in London, Carbon Intelligence helps companies understand their global carbon footprint and advises them on how to reduce it.

Carbon Intelligence is Accenture's fifth sustainability-focused acquisition in the past year, which has been accompanied by the recruitment of new talent into its teams.

Accenture is focusing on the sustainability of its business by expanding its capabilities in sustainability strategy, supply chain transformation, and measuring the value and impact of actions taken.

Earlier this year, Accenture acquired Greenfish in France, Belgium and the Netherlands, Akzente in Germany, Avieco in the UK and Zest group in the Netherlands.

Accenture France achieved revenues of €1.5 billion in 2021. The U.S. parent company earned $50.5 billion in revenue last year.
