Benchmark ESG performance & earn WELL credits with energy management software

Meet ESG and WELL certification criteria by making your building more sustainable and energy-efficient

Buildings in the EU are responsible for around 40% of energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions. Taking actionable steps to reduce the impact of buildings on the planet is key to the future of sustainability in the real estate industry.

To keep investors and shareholders happy, property owners need to make a concerted effort to improve the energy efficiency of their buildings and earn valuable ESG ratings and WELL certification points to showcase their sustainability achievements.

What is an ESG rating?

ESG stands for three factors used to evaluate a company or country’s overall sustainability rating based on international benchmarks – Environmental, Social and Governance. Now a leading non-financial rating, ESG was initially strictly financial and related to credit risk but is now used to support companies in their corporate social responsibility behaviour.

Environmental

Issues relating to the quality and functioning of the natural environment and natural systems, including but not limited to biodiversity loss, greenhouse gas emissions, climate change, energy efficiency, and waste management.

Social

Issues relating to the rights, well-being and interests of people and communities, including human rights, labour standards, workplace health and safety, relations with local communities, and consumer protection.

Governance

Issues relating to the governance of companies and other investee entities. These include board structure, size, diversity, rights and business ethics – essentially, dealings between a company’s management, its board, its shareholders and its stakeholders.

Why ESG is vital

ESG is becoming increasingly important, with governments and regulatory agencies worldwide prioritising human and social capital as critical focus areas for 2022. While reporting will remain an essential business function, organisations need to adopt a forward-thinking strategy to help them better impact social issues and communicate the importance of sustainability to stakeholders.

What is WELL certification?

The WELL Building Standard (WELL) certification is an indispensable part of a broader ESG strategy dedicated to advancing people’s health and wellbeing in buildings and communities. Designed to help companies assess the full range of social issues surrounding health and wellbeing, it is integral to ESG’s ‘Social’ category.

Put simply, WELL is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying and monitoring building features and how they impact human health and wellbeing through the air, water, nourishment, light, fitness, comfort and mind.

WELL certification is founded on the following principles:

  • Equitable – benefits all types of people
  • Global – provides worldwide solutions
  • Evidence-based – uses the latest science and health research
  • Technically robust – rigorously reviewed by third parties
  • Customer-focused– includes personalised technical support
  • Resilient– evolves over time to fit changing world

Why WELL certification is important

The industry-standard WELL measurement creates accountability and transparency for employee wellbeing and is vital for doing business in the modern world. A cornerstone of ESG strategy, WELL can help you improve your investment strategy, drive organisational excellence within your team and take your ESG performance to new heights.

Pursuing WELL Certification can earn points on various performance outcomes for your building’s policy, design, and operational strategies. Businesses can achieve Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum levels. An investment into health and happiness, WELL inspires human connection and support, facilitating indoor environments prioritising wellness and comfort.
