There is plenty worth listening to in this IPSX webinar “The importance of measuring carbon in the built environment”. In particular, there are some interesting thoughts on the investor perspective from David Delaney, (Group Chief Executive, IPSX), and the prospect of a bifurcation in the investment market between stranded and non-stranded assets. Does an asset have an ability to achieve net zero? It is certainly the question that has moved to the forefront of investor minds, plus of course lenders and potential occupants. The latest moves in policy i.e. EPC B by 2030 will no doubt accelerate this trend.
Yet as David suggests, the prospect of such stranded assets (i.e. on the basis of their sub-standard "green" credentials) may also create opportunity. Surely, as he indicates, these stranded "green” assets will trade at the right price, and create opportunity for those willing to invest in the greater ”green” risk? Of course, as it stands, there is plenty of distress in the retail sector, but with that comes opportunity. As the “green“ momentum in real estate continues, is the emergence of stranded assets set to create the next distressed real estate market?
In this webinar, we explore the importance of carbon reporting and the different approaches that asset owners can use. The panel discuss the practical steps that asset owners can take to improve their asset reporting to make their assets more attractive to investors.
