ESG as a value driver
in real estate
There is a vast quantity of data in the real estate sector, and collecting, analysing, and actioning this presents a key challenge. Position Green provides real estate players with accurate, traceable ESG data and expert insights to ensure regulatory compliance, investment opportunities and a viable carbon reduction strategy.
Tackling transparency to fuel net zero goals
Driven by investor and regulatory demands and a considerable carbon footprint, the real estate sector has been one of the early adopters of ESG. However, ESG data management presents a complex challenge as real estate companies wrestle with an array of data sources, integration issues and stakeholder requirements. This is underpinned by the growing scrutiny of environmental and social impacts by investors, tenants and other stakeholders.
Ensuring data integrity and consistency across properties and portfolios is critical for transparent ESG reporting, effective decision-making, global benchmarking (GRESB) and ESG performance assessment. With extensive experience and a dedicated team of industry experts, Position Green combines ESG software and advisory to help real estate players navigate the inherent risks and opportunities of ESG and accelerate their sustainability journey.
- Utilise leading ESG software to collect and analyse ESG data from all operations, identify areas for improvement and mitigate risks in areas such as energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, waste management and social impact.
- Ensure regulatory compliance with ready-made templates and structured data collection according to relevant industry standards and legislations, e.g. EU Taxonomy, ESRS. Leverage expert guidance in defining ESG metrics and gain insight into real estate best practices.
- Benchmark your performance against industry peers and compare key ESG metrics to obtain actionable insights. Our experts help interpret results, conduct gap analysis and plan actions and investments to enhance ESG performance.
- Develop and implement solid and realistic ESG and Net Zero strategies for your organisation and building portfolio. We guide clients with data-driven insights and a deep understanding of applicable frameworks, methods and implementation.
