Key result
The Illusion of Compliance
Many property managers and investors believe they are on top of their ESG data by tracking basic electricity and heating. However, in today's landscape, partial tracking and scattered systems no longer meet the mark. As regulations tighten, "good enough" data is becoming a significant liability.
The Risks of Incomplete Tracking
Missing Utilities Mean Missing Points
Certifications like GRESB and BREEAM evaluate the completeness of your environmental footprint. Leaving out water, waste, or solar data directly lowers your coverage scores. If one utility is missing, your overall ESG rating suffers.
Scattered Systems Lower Confidence
Manual reporting via spreadsheets and fragmented portals leads to inconsistencies and errors. Investors and certification bodies favour integrated, centralized systems. Without a unified view, you lose both operational clarity and investor trust.
The High Bar of Certifications
- GRESB: Allocates nearly 20% of its score to utility data coverage, demanding year-round consumption data rather than estimates.
- BREEAM: Credits such as Ene 19 and Wat 11 require at least 90% of utility usage to be metered and tracked through a single cohesive system.
