Sustainability Consulting

Sustainable property management requires a holistic view of the property. The database must be accessible, interpretable and controllable. eco2consult, as Sustainability Consulting, accompanies this process from the very beginning.

Fact check through ESG asset screening

The best basis for sustainable real estate management is transparency. Our ESG asset screening provides you with precisely this - with a comprehensive and realistic assessment of the condition of your property according to the environmental (E), social (S) and governance (G) criteria. This allows us to work on a fact-based basis: The analysis enables us to derive potential optimization measures and assess regulatory compliance.

Performance for existing buildings: building certifications

Certification systems such as DGNB, LEED, BREEAM or WiredScore also send out important signals for existing buildings. This is because they are clear proof of sustainable and digital building operation. Building certification defines the status and creates transparency at the same time. It supports building operators, portfolio owners and users in implementing a sustainable and digital real estate strategy. Optimization potential is identified, risks are minimized and investment security is increased.

Sustainability reporting and rating

Sustainability reporting and ratings can be the key to improving the sustainability performance of your portfolio. The GRESB Real Estate Assessment and the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) Best Practice Recommendations on Sustainability Reporting (sBPR) offer two suitable assessment options.

ESG aspects of companies, funds or real estate portfolios can be examined and evaluated by participating in the GRESB Real Estate Assessment. For listed European real estate companies, the EPRA has created a uniform and comparable method for measuring sustainability performance with the EPRA sBPR. eco2consult accompanies you through the entire verification process.

Record meter values digitally with STRABAGmeter

Knowing meter values on the reporting date is a basic requirement for many reports, key figures and optimization measures. STRABAGmeter is an effective bridging technology of our eco2consult service offering. The meter readings can be conveniently recorded at the desired time using a smartphone and image recognition. The data is automatically transferred to a scheduling portal, giving the client direct access to all information.

Our professional CO2e balance sheet calculation

When does a property or a portfolio no longer satisfy climate requirements? As the experts say, when do they reach their stranding point? A CO2e balance provides the answer. We use established carbon footprint calculators such as the CRREM Risk Assessment Tool or the German Sustainable Building Council's (DGNB) carbon footprint calculator.

In order to meet building-specific requirements, we have further developed the CO2e balance tool with CO2 paths and additional evaluations.

Sustainable purchase and supply contracts

Reducing emissions and making the best possible use of resources - in combination with improved conditions, there are huge reserves. CO2 reduction, monetary savings potential, improved transparency and data availability can be achieved simply by optimizing waste and energy supply contracts.
