One tool which increases the value of your real estate, identifies commercial (lending) opportunities, reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions, and helps with regulatory compliance & risk. Millions of building owners, investors and occupiers benefit already because their lenders offer the Green Buildings Tool to create joint impact. This article reveals why this is important and how this is possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It is remarkable how tenants, landlords, and financial institutions are in need to adapt their investment strategies to stay in line with sustainable developments. The upcoming focus is not only mandatory but also brings great benefits, such as increased value, lower risks, higher occupancy rates, lower maintenance costs, and a sustainable image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Especially financial institutions are increasingly looking to finance sustainable lines of business. 40% of all carbon emissions come from the built environment, and almost all banks in the world finance real estate, sometimes for more than 60% of their balance sheet. There is a great beneficial impact to be made by the front runners of this industry by engaging in ESG initiatives. However, the actual progress is limited due to complexities, missing data and misperceptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A lot still remains unclear on how to comply with all sustainable requirements, gather the necessary data, and involve all the relevant internal stakeholders, tenants and clients. At the same time, banks and building owners do not always know how to save carbon, or even what the current emissions are per building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This results in a need to gather data and decide on the next steps by producing quick, scalable and affordable carbon reports of real estate portfolios followed by sustainability business cases for the entire portfolio or per building or house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CFP Green Buildings has developed a platform that provides simple, large-scale and specific levels of insight. Entire portfolios, as well as individual objects, can be processed. The platform gives instant insights into portfolio performance. It recognises the type of property, retrieves the sustainability score, identifies the most relevant sustainability measures and establishes a business case, cost-effectively, completely automatically on the basis of algorithms and APIs. The enrichment of data by owners and banks creates a self-managing system of sustainability and enables them to take action. It offers a great way to smartly decarbonise your real estate or loan book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HSBC: <\/em><\/strong>\u2018\u2019The Tool is user-friendly and easy to understand.
