Solving for decarbonization

Across the commercial real estate industry, there is a keen awareness of the importance of environmental, social and governance factors when buying, building, or owning properties. The covid pandemic has intensified the industry’s focus on ensuring real estate meets fast-evolving standards of sustainability, relating to an asset’s impact on the environment and wider society.

In the finance part of the industry, the role lenders can play to promote ESG is becoming more apparent. As borrowers and investors in debt strategies demand finance that incorporates ESG performance, lenders are responding by crafting sustainable lending frameworks, ESG-linked loan products, and by adopting strategies which focus on assets which meet, or are on the way to meeting, sustainable standards.

C-PACE finance and sustainable lending platforms are providing the solution to one of the most urgent needs of property owners – how to reduce the carbon footprint of their portfolios as cities and municipalities put into place legislation requiring upgrading properties to more stringent environmental standards.

The report will examine the sustainability strategies lenders are adopting, investigate innovation in the field of ESG finance, and delve into how decision-makers in the property debt market can positively influence the ESG performance of property assets.  The report will ask the following questions:

  • What is at stake for commercial real estate owners as the largest and most investible markets are implementing strict decarbonization regulations.
  • How C-PACE and sustainable finance work – and how they are helping to finance these necessary transitions.
  • Scaling C-PACE – how seasoned commercial real estate lenders will borrow a page from the past to expand this sector
  • What institutional investors think about this transition and how it is affecting the way they allocate debt and equity capital.
  • The impact of a more energy efficient strategy on a building’s operating costs – and long-term ability to outperform.
  • What owners and lenders need to know about this imminent green transition.
