ESG, LCA & GHG Training for Saudi Energy (SEC) | DEISO Case Study

Enterprise Case Example

Strengthening Multi-Disciplinary Sustainability Implementation Capability for Saudi Energy Through a Structured Enterprise Engagement Series

DEISO supported Saudi Energy through a multi-program enterprise engagement in Riyadh designed to strengthen internal capability across three interrelated sustainability domains: ESG, Life Cycle Assessment, and GHG accounting and verification. The engagement helped create a broader internal foundation for sustainability implementation, carbon governance, and cross-functional organizational alignment.

How Capacity Building Was Positioned in This Engagement

This engagement should not be interpreted as a standalone training relationship. It was delivered as part of DEISO’s broader technical sustainability approach, where capacity building is integrated to strengthen internal implementation environments, enterprise coordination, and long-term organizational readiness across key sustainability disciplines.

DEISO’s role was to help build stronger internal understanding around ESG, lifecycle assessment, and carbon governance so that the organization could engage more effectively with future reporting, environmental analysis, and verification-related workflows.

Executive Summary

DEISO delivered a structured series of on-site sustainability engagements in Riyadh for Saudi Energy, covering ESG, LCA, and GHG accounting and verification across 2023. Each engagement involved 16 participants from managerial and employee-level roles spanning diverse technical and organizational functions.

Together, these engagements created a progressive capability-building pathway that strengthened enterprise sustainability maturity, internal alignment, and readiness for environmental, carbon, and disclosure-related initiatives.

Client Profile

  • Organization Type: National energy utility and infrastructure organization
  • Region: Saudi Arabia
  • Client Name Used in This Case Study: Saudi Energy (formerly Saudi Electricity Company (SEC))
  • Delivery Format: On-site, Riyadh
  • Audience Profile: 16 participants in each engagement, including managers and employees from diverse functions

Strategic Challenge

Saudi Energy required structured internal capability development to support broader sustainability transformation objectives across environmental assessment, carbon governance, and ESG-related performance management.

As a large energy-sector organization, the need extended beyond technical knowledge alone and included stronger shared understanding across managerial, strategic, and technical roles.

  • Strengthening enterprise understanding of ESG principles and reporting foundations
  • Building practical capability in Life Cycle Assessment for environmental decision-making
  • Improving internal competence in GHG accounting, reporting, and verification
  • Creating shared sustainability understanding across multiple organizational levels
  • Establishing a stronger internal base for future carbon, environmental, and disclosure initiatives

DEISO’s Integrated Technical Role

DEISO acted as a technical sustainability partner, designing and delivering a structured multi-program engagement aligned with the client’s internal capability development priorities across ESG, LCA, and GHG.

Rather than isolated topic-based training, the work functioned as an enterprise-level sustainability implementation support model, helping the organization strengthen internal coordination, build cross-functional understanding, and prepare more effectively for future sustainability-related work.

Structured Engagement Series Delivered

The overall engagement included three specialized on-site programs delivered across 2023, each focused on a high-priority sustainability discipline relevant to Saudi Energy’s evolving enterprise sustainability landscape.

Enterprise design value: by engaging managers and employees from diverse professional backgrounds in each program, the series helped connect strategic, technical, and operational sustainability understanding across the organization rather than limiting knowledge to a narrow specialist group.

Technical and Organizational Value Delivered

The combined engagement series provided Saudi Energy with a structured progression across three interconnected capability areas that are central to modern enterprise sustainability implementation:

  • ESG: stronger strategic understanding of environmental, social, and governance principles and their reporting relevance
  • LCA: stronger technical awareness of lifecycle-based environmental assessment and product/system evaluation
  • GHG: improved organizational capability in emissions accounting, carbon reporting, and verification-oriented logic

By spanning managerial and employee-level roles, the series also helped create better internal alignment between strategic and technical teams, stronger readiness for future sustainability initiatives, and a more informed internal base for environmental and carbon-related decision-making.

Measurable Outcomes

Across the engagement series, Saudi Energy strengthened its internal sustainability foundation through a multi-domain, multi-role capability development model.

Strategic Value

For participants and the wider organization, the engagement series created value beyond isolated topic awareness. It helped connect ESG, LCA, and GHG into a broader enterprise sustainability framework and strengthened readiness to contribute to internal environmental and carbon-related initiatives.

Why This Engagement Matters

Many organizations approach sustainability capability development through one-time, fragmented activities. This case demonstrates the value of a structured, multi-program approach that strengthens sustainability maturity progressively and helps move an organization from disconnected knowledge toward a more integrated internal capability model.
