BRE’s Post

🔊 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.

🌍 How can global #decarbonisation standards help us create a more sustainable #builtenvironment? As global regulations tighten and #climate-related risks become more pronounced, buildings that are not aligned with #sustainability standards and #decarbonisation frameworks will face higher operational costs, increased regulatory compliance costs, and reduced asset values. 📄 Our new report with the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA), the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC), the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), and Alliance HQE - GBC (France), calls for the use of global decarbonisation standards to help bring the majority of buildings up to modern sustainability standards.

🔊"Bridging the gap between high-performing and underperforming buildings is essential to achieving our global #decarbonisation goals. This report underlines the importance of inclusive investment strategies that unlock capital for the majority of buildings, ensuring that no part of the #builtenvironment is left behind," said Jane Goddard, BRE's Deputy CEO. 🌏 While high-performing buildings have access to green finance and resources, most buildings remain locked out due to a lack of capital. BRE's new report "Building Transition: How to Scale and Finance an Inclusive Transition for the Built Environment," focuses on the 75% of lower-performing buildings that have not yet adopted green building practices. Developed in partnership with the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA), the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC), the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), and Alliance HQE - GBC France, our new report offers key recommendations to address this challenge. It lays out how to attract capital to this large untapped segment, to ensure that decarbonisation takes place across the entire sector. BRE's new report expands the conversation to ensure financing solutions are inclusive, enabling more building owners to access the funds needed to make significant improvements.

A global alliance of green building organisations today launched a groundbreaking sustainable finance call to action aimed at bringing the vast majority of buildings up to modern sustainability standards. The report, “Building Transition: How to Scale and Finance an Inclusive Transition for the Built Environment,” focuses on the 75% of lower-performing buildings that have not yet adopted green building practices. The initiative, led by the UK’s Building Research Establishment (BRE), the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA), the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC), the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), and Alliance HQE - GBC France, seeks to close the gap between top performers and the rest of the market.
