Frequently asked questions about ESG consulting
Which data is required for the ESG assessment?
For an ESG assessment, we collect both property-specific data (e.g. energy consumption, building structure, technical systems) and organisational and corporate information (e.g. policies, processes, social standards). This data forms the basis for a sound analysis and the development of recommendations for action.
Which regulations apply for ESG compliance?
The key regulatory frameworks are particularly the EU Taxonomy and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). We help you implement the requirements correctly and align your real estate strategy accordingly.
What is the goal of ESG consulting?
ESG consulting creates transparency about risks and opportunities in the area of sustainability. It provides strategies to position property portfolios or individual assets for the future, in a socially responsible way and in line with regulatory requirements.
What does ESG mean in the real estate context?
Real estate managed or developed in line with ESG standards enjoys long-term competitive advantages: better market positioning, higher attractiveness for investors, lower regulatory and financing risks, and a positive impact on the environment and society.
When is ESG consulting useful?
For both existing assets and new-build projects. For existing stock, we identify ESG potential and derive concrete measures. For new builds, sustainability aspects are integrated into planning from the outset in order to leverage funding opportunities and meet certification standards.
