Brick by brick: In the pursuit of green properties

  • Summary

  • In the seventh episode of Navigating to Net Zero, host Rebecca Darst talks with three leaders with extensive expertise in green property management: Coen van Oostrom, Founder and CEO of Edge, whose team is transforming cityscapes across Europe one green building at a time, and Simon Hanna and Carlos Viesca of FIBRA Macquarie, who are working with tenants to make more than 250 office and retail buildings in Mexico more energy efficient and less carbon intensive.

    In this episode, you’ll hear about:

    • Specific amenities – such as air conditioning, lighting, and roofing materials – that can affect a building’s carbon footprint and what developers can do to make these more efficient.
    • Challenges FIBRA Macquarie faces in accessing renewable energy in Mexico and how Mexico’s long-standing support for fossil fuels contrasts with the regulatory climate in Europe.
    • Why cement presents one of the biggest challenges in making buildings greener
    • The use of blockchain for “materials passports” – digital records that track and store data about the origin of all materials used in the building process.
