Portfolio decarbonization refers
to systematic efforts by investors
to align their investment
portfolios with the goals of a
low-carbon economy. It includes,
but is not limited to, efforts
to reduce the carbon footprint
of investment portfolios and
encouraging companies
and other entities to reduce
their emissions and support
the transition to a
low-carbon economy.
As more and more countries put a price on carbon, real estate assets’ return
on investment increasingly depends on their performance against energy and
carbon indicators. As a result, improving building efficiency is as much about
reducing the risks associated with carbon regulations and meeting fiduciary
duties as it is about maximizing the opportunities associated with the transi-
tion to a low-carbon economy and delivering on beneficiary expectations.
From reducing energy and operating costs for tenants to slowing down asset
depreciation and reducing compliance-related brown risks, we help real
estate investors keep their investments attractive to premium tenants and
buyers and leverage their building assets’ performance to boost their
sustainability credentials and market trust.
