Redevco commits to Net Zero Carbon Portfolio by 2040

Amsterdam, 14 November 2019 – Redevco has committed to making its entire portfolio net zero carbon by 2040 as part of its ongoing efforts to act responsibly and reduce its impact on the environment. The new ‘Mission 2040’ campaign is aligned with the World Green Building Council’s definition of Net Zero Carbon (NZC), which states buildings should be highly energy efficient and fully powered from on-site and/or off-site renewable energy sources.

Clemens Brenninkmeijer, Head of Sustainable Business Operations at Redevco, said: “We believe that we can make a significant impact by improving the environmental performance of our assets under management. Our sector, responsible for more than 30% of global energy consumption, has a responsibility to find solutions and reduce carbon emissions. Redevco wants to lead by example and show the industry what it means to act responsibly. It starts with us. We need to minimise our impact on the climate and the Earth’s resources.”
