“Fight climate change by committing European real estate players to decarbonize”

“Decarbonizing real estate is key in the fight against climate change, and we must take action at a European level to build a sustainable future for the industry. As the first pan-European low-carbon initiative, the LCBI label presents a significant opportunity to promote best practices in low-carbon strategies within our sector and will serve as a valuable reporting tool for mixed-use developments.”

“To achieve Net Zero by 2050, we must develop our carbon strategies over the next 15 years. To make this happen, we need to start transforming our practices within the next 2 to 3 years. This requires the development of a robust CO2 accounting and analysis framework for buildings, cities, and portfolios. BBCA is proud to support the European Low Carbon Building initiative, offering its technical expertise gained over the past six years. Our contribution aims to help meet CO2 metrics and secure European labels, in alignment with ongoing EU efforts (such as the Green Taxonomy, CSRD, and NFRD) and international standards (including the ISSB).”
