Notably, 57% of respondents also noted having defined standard metrics for measuring the impact of an acquisition or divestiture on their company's ESG profile.

“BREEAM has pushed us beyond our initial goals, leading to an even more sustainable design than we originally envisioned. HAUT proves that sustainability and high-quality architecture can go hand in hand.”– Jeroen Dunnebacke, JP van Eesteren Haut Amsterdam is an impressive 73-metre-tall hybrid timber structure, with the capacity to store 2,500 tonnes of CO2. This remarkable building is proof that large residential structures can fulfil the demands of housing with effective sustainable design. BREEAM helped pushed the design team to innovate and achieve higher levels of sustainability than initially envisioned, resulting in HAUT becoming the first residential high-rise in the Netherlands to achieve a BREEAM Outstanding certification.

🔊"HQM's comprehensive template made it stand out amongst other methodologies we considered and its focus on aspects positively impacting health and wellbeing," said Helen Fentimen, Chair of City of London Corporation’s Community and Children’s Services. The City of London Corporation has placed BRE’s Home Quality Mark (HQM) at the forefront of its two latest social housing initiatives, setting a new benchmark for quality and #sustainable living in the sector and beyond. With more than 3,100 social housing residents across 12 estates in London and a commitment to deliver an additional 700 high-quality socially rented homes, the City of London is on course to complete an additional 344 socially rented homes by 2026. HQM is an integral part of the City’s long-term management and maintenance, supporting the corporation’s commitment to achieving #netzero #carbon #emissions in its own operations by 2027. The decision marks a major milestone in the uptake of #HQM, which has to date certified over 2,000 homes, as well being applied to over 25,000 homes across the UK. Building on the trusted science behind BREEAM Official, HQM was developed by BRE to provide independent verification to housing developers and investors that developments have met expected levels of performance. 🗓 On Thursday 25th July, BRE is hosting a webinar on how HQM is helping navigate the evolving landscape of #sustainable residential investments.

Buildings account for over 30% of global energy use and more than a quarter of emissions. With the expectation that most existing buildings will still be standing in 2050, owners and stakeholders must make substantial investments in sustainable retrofits to meet climate targets. Our new sustainable finance guide, developed in partnership with a global industry alliance, helps strengthen global cooperation between the finance and real estate sectors. This is an essential step toward completing the large-scale capital investments needed to support sustainable retrofits and meet climate targets. Thanks to our global alliance partners for your collaboration: Green Building Council of Australia, U.S. Green Building Council, Singapore Green Building Council, Alliance HQE - GBC, GRESB, the Climate Bonds Initiative, and CRREM - Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor.
