Monitoring ESG indicators in Power BI – how to use data for sustainability reporting
In an era of growing regulatory pressure and expectations from investors and consumers, sustainable development is becoming one of the pillars of business activity. ESG, or environmental, social and governance criteria, are no longer just part of voluntary CSR activities, but are increasingly monitored by supervisory authorities, auditors, and the public. With the introduction of regulations such as the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive), companies must present measurable data on their impact on the environment and society. However, not only is ‘end-of-year’ reporting key, but also ongoing progress tracking, early detection of irregularities and decision-making based on current data. In this context, Microsoft Power BI becomes a tool that enables the effective integration of data from multiple sources, its transformation and presentation in the form of intuitive visualisations.
