Ramboll’s Post

Infrastructure leaders from all over the world gathered in Geneva, Switzerland, for the 2024 FIDIC Global Infrastructure Conference 🌍 This year’s theme was ‘Transforming lives with infrastructure', making it the perfect time to launch the new Carbon Collaboration Initiative to help the infrastructure sector to reduce whole life emissions 🙌 “If climate change were a pandemic, we would quickly come together and share best practice, knowledge, and data of how to overcome the virus,” says Jens-Peter Saul, CEO at Ramboll. “But climate change is even more serious, so we need to act now.” The initiative is underpinned by a Carbon Management Framework that aims to integrate sustainability into the design, decision-making, and operational processes of infrastructure projects.

This is exactly why you should renovate instead of building new 👏🏨 As the built environment is responsible for 40% of global CO2 emissions, prioritising renovation over building new plays a vital role in decarbonising the construction sector. Renovating has the potential to be up to 45% more cost effective and can be more resilient to a changing climate, catering to a variety of future needs and functions. A great example of renovation is Hotel Mestari. In the 1930s, Finland's construction expertise gathered to create their new headquarters in Helsinki. As the business grew and developed, so did the building. In the early 2000s, needs had changed, and the property began its transformation into a hotel. Today, Hotel Mestari is a modern lifestyle hotel that, in addition to nine meeting rooms, also has a sauna, gym and restaurant in a unique location. Seeing the value in this renovated building, Ramboll advised real estate owner Rakennusmestarien Säätiö sr (the Builders’ Foundation) on their operator search and lease contract negotiations after running a successful international competition for the owner. From this, Strawberry has announced the hotel as an addition to their portfolio, continuing the hotel’s success in the years to come.
