Climate & Energy
Targets & Principles
- Reduction of the average Scope 1+2 CO2 emission intensity of the investment portfolio by 50% by 2030 (base year 2019)
- All new construction projects completed from 2030 onwards are climate neutral in operation (net zero carbon)
- Climate neutrality by 2050
Measures
- Conversion of electricity contracts to 100% electricity from renewable energy sources in the investment portfolio by 2023 (landlord-obtained)
- Purchase of climate-neutral district heating acc. to local availability
- Green lease programme to reduce CO2 emissions (Scope 3) in the investment portfolio (tenant participation)
- Establishment of a digital energy monitoring and management system for the Group-wide portfolio by 2025
- Renovation programme to systematically reduce the energy consumption and carbon footprint of the investment portfolio
- Continuous reduction of the energy demand of development projects
- Expansion of renewable energy sources in and on development projects (e.g. photovoltaics, solar thermal energy, geothermal energy)
- Reduction of embodied carbon emissions in development projects
- Compensation of unavoidable emissions through offsetting measures (e.g. CO2 reduction certificates)
