Sustainable real estate solutions

Say hello to improved building performance

Finding sustainable real estate solutions is a key consideration for both tenants and investors when it comes to commercial property. For investors, sustainability means reduced risk, cost savings and an enhanced market appeal, future-proofing portfolios. For tenants, the drive towards becoming net-zero is greatly helped by a property that supports their ESG goals.

A shared vision

Becoming more sustainable presents challenges to the real estate sector. It involves meeting regulatory and environmental obligations and maintaining the value of your assets through innovation. Information is key to making a sustainable change, from sourcing insights and making informed decisions to connecting with your tenants to better understand their needs. Gathering together the sustainability information of your building, requesting feedback and engaging with stakeholders empowers you to move towards a net-zero future with purpose.

As a business, you also need to be able to clearly communicate the positive changes you are making and the impact they have on the environment. At hello energy, we help you gather that information, tell those stories and show the value you are providing.

One key way to demonstrate your commitment to sustainability is to work towards official certifications. They are instantly recognisable and provide value to stakeholders whether that is third-party partners, tenants, guests or community.

GRESB is the leading ESG benchmark for real estate assets and is used to assess a company’s ESG performance. We help you earn credits for your GRESB certification by collecting, analysing, and visualising your energy data. We’ll help you to improve your ESG score up to 8.1 points higher on your GRESB real estate assessment.  

BREEAM

BREEAM is the world’s oldest sustainability certification and is a useful tool to assess a building’s influence on the world around it. The certification recognizes the value in higher-performing assets across the building life cycle, from new construction to refurbishment. We can help you to score higher in your BREEAM building assessment by providing insight into your energy usage and by showing dynamic travel information. In total, we can help you score 24 points out of 1069, and we may be able to help you score even more with our engagement features and air quality monitoring.
