IMPLEMENTATION OF SUSTAINABLE COMMERICAL PROPERTY PRACTICES BY EUROPEAN PROPERTY COMPANIES

Sustainable commercial property has taken on increased significance in recent years, with ígreen buildingsî becoming increasingly important to both tenants and owners. The purpose of this paper is to assess the implementation of sustainable commercial property practices by European property companies. This will be done by assessing the annual reports and associated sustainability documents on the websites of various European property companies to determine the significance of sustainability practices in their commercial property portfolios. Examples of European property companies leading the sustainable commercial property agenda will also be highlighted.
