When it comes to decarbonization, the utility bill is just one piece of the puzzle. While energy efficiency is critical, it’s also important to consider the broader financial implications, including incentives, potential fines, and regulatory changes. For example, Lendlease’s OneJava project goes beyond energy savings. By integrating geothermal technology and anticipating future regulations, they’re not only cutting costs but also adding long-term value to the asset. This proactive approach safeguards against penalties and enhances the asset’s marketability. Jonathan Flaherty from Tishman Speyer and Sara Neff, formerly of Lendlease explain how these strategies can benefit your assets in our on-demand recording! 📊 https://lnkd.in/ep4A4FH3 #Decarbonization #Sustainability #BusinessCase

Decarbonization isn’t just about reducing your carbon footprint—it’s about adding value to your business. The challenge? Every executive and stakeholder views financials differently, whether it’s through IRR, NPV, or straight payback. Winning buy-in requires translating decarbonization efforts into the financial metrics that matter most to your audience. By focusing on value creation and the impact on asset valuation, you can make a compelling case for sustainability investments. Sara Neff from Lendlease discusses how to navigate these financial conversations in our on-demand recording! 🎥 https://lnkd.in/ep4A4FH3 #Decarbonization #Finance #ValueCreation

At Lendlease, electrification isn’t a one-time project—it’s an ongoing process.

This proactive approach assumes that the market will shift in favor of lower carbon solutions. With heat pump costs decreasing and gas prices expected to rise, LendLease is positioning its assets to avoid future penalties and stay compliant with evolving regulations. Sara Neff shares how this strategy keeps LendLease at the forefront of sustainable development in our on-demand recording! 📺 Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/ep4A4FH3 #Electrification #SustainableDevelopment #FuturePlanning

Decarbonization and the "Next Owner" Problem: Are You Prepared? Most commercial real estate assets change hands every 7-12 years. That means the next owner is likely to face stricter carbon regulations, and they won’t want to inherit assets that aren’t compliant. This puts pressure on current owners to future-proof their investments now. The next buyer will be looking for properties that won’t come with fines, penalties, or costly retrofits. The good news? Taking action today can protect your asset’s value tomorrow. Jonathan Flaherty from Tishman Speyer dives deeper into this critical issue in our on-demand recording! https://lnkd.in/ep4A4FH3 #Decarbonization #CommercialRealEstate #Sustainability

🔧 Future-Proofing Your Building: The Importance of Strategic Asset Planning 🔧 To keep your building on the cutting edge, it's crucial to have a strategy for every asset. Understanding the age and replacement timeline of your equipment ensures you're not just reacting to failures but proactively planning for them. But there’s more—having a roadmap in place means you’re not simply replacing old equipment with more of the same. Instead, you’re upgrading to future-ready technology that aligns with the needs of tomorrow’s building. This forward-thinking approach prepares you for the unexpected, ensuring your assets are always aligned with the future. Jonathan Flaherty from Tishman Speyer explains how this strategy can save you time, money, and stress in our on-demand recording! 📺 https://lnkd.in/ep4A4FH3 #AssetManagement #FutureReady #SustainableBuildings

At Audette, we recently attended IMN's Decarbonizing Real Estate Forum, and the shift in perspective was palpable. Sustainability is no longer viewed as a cost center—it's now recognized as a key driver and protector of asset value. Key takeaways: • Sustainability has evolved from a nice-to-have to table stakes for attracting investors and competing in capital markets. • Decarbonization significantly impacts asset values by improving NOI and mitigating cap rate compression. • The industry needs actionable, asset-level transition plans that align with portfolio-level goals. • It's time to prioritize reduction over excessive reporting, focusing on what truly matters to clients and investors. • Innovation in real estate decarbonization is crucial, matching the scale of our ambition to the scale of the problem. As carbon emissions and performance become increasingly integrated into the global economy, those who leverage decarbonization as a competitive advantage will gain a significant edge. At Audette, we're committed to making decarbonization planning easier, faster, and widely available. We believe now is the time to unlock decarbonization at scale.
