Global ESG Reporting Software Market Size study & Forecast, by Offering, Deployment Mode, Organization Size, Vertical and Regional Forecasts 2025-2035

The Global ESG Reporting Software Market is valued at approximately USD 1.2 billion in 2024 and is poised to grow at a robust CAGR of more than 18.00% over the forecast period 2025-2035. ESG Reporting Software has evolved from a compliance-centric utility to a strategic imperative for businesses, empowering organizations to measure, track, and transparently communicate their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. As stakeholder scrutiny intensifies and regulations become increasingly stringent, enterprises are proactively adopting ESG solutions to embed sustainability into their core operations, enhance corporate reputation, and attract responsible investors. The remarkable market traction is primarily driven by mounting global pressure on organizations to reduce their environmental footprint, uphold ethical governance practices, and promote social accountability. As reporting standards like GRI, SASB, and CSRD gain global prominence, ESG reporting software enables businesses to seamlessly align their disclosures, automate data collection, and produce insightful, audit-ready reports.

This rapidly expanding demand is further fueled by growing investor emphasis on non-financial performance, where ESG data is being increasingly utilized as a key metric for decision-making. With governments worldwide pushing for net-zero emissions, industries are leveraging ESG platforms to map sustainability KPIs, manage climate risk, and unlock operational efficiencies. According to PwC, nearly 79% of investors cite ESG reporting as a critical factor in their investment choices, highlighting the rising strategic relevance of this software. Moreover, sectors like energy, manufacturing, and financial services are undergoing transformational ESG integrations to comply with mandates such as the EU Taxonomy and SEC climate disclosure rules. However, the fragmented regulatory landscape and lack of data standardization across geographies could inhibit market growth in the short term, especially for smaller enterprises struggling to interpret and implement complex ESG frameworks.

Regionally, North America dominated the ESG Reporting Software Market in 2024 and is anticipated to sustain its lead through 2035. The region’s aggressive adoption of digital ESG platforms is bolstered by tightening disclosure regulations from agencies like the SEC and growing shareholder activism around climate accountability. The United States in particular is seeing a proliferation of cloud-based ESG tools tailored to financial institutions, tech conglomerates, and energy providers. Meanwhile, Europe is expected to register the fastest growth over the forecast period due to the strong regulatory framework driven by the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). In Asia Pacific, countries like Japan, Australia, and India are experiencing a surge in ESG adoption fueled by policy reforms, ESG-integrated investment portfolios, and the expansion of responsible supply chain initiatives. This regional dynamism is giving rise to localized ESG SaaS vendors, partnerships with consulting firms, and government-backed ESG digitalization programs.
