Covivio supports the Low Carbon Building Initiative
Covivio supports the Low Carbon Building Initiative (LCBI), consortium of major real estate European players aiming at reducing the carbon impact of buildings.
Launching the first pan-European methodology for whole life-cycle carbon measurement in buildings, with limit values, the Low Carbon Building Initiative (LCBI) is setting a new standard for low carbon performance.
The method is the basis of a low-carbon performance label, now available in 8 European countries – Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Spain, and the UK – and audited by Bureau Veritas.
For real estate players, this is a pivotal moment. The LCBI methodology offers a robust framework for designing low-carbon buildings and a reliable indicator for investors seeking sustainable ventures.
