🔊 How can stronger policies and taxonomies help underperforming buildings? While high-performing buildings have access to green finance and resources, the majority of existing buildings remain locked out due to a lack of capital. 📄 BRE's new report with the Green Building Council of Australia, the Singapore Green Building Council, the U.S. Green Building Council, Alliance HQE - GBC, calls for stronger policies and taxonomies to direct capital toward underperforming buildings. It advocates for context-specific, performance-oriented criteria tailored to diverse building types, ensuring investment reaches all buildings. With the built environment responsible for a significant share of global emissions, unlocking investments for the underperforming majority of buildings could help us decarbonise at scale.
