Generali Real Estate 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, the Netherlands, Spain, and the UK – and audited by Bureau Veritas Group.
The LCBI methodology offers a robust framework for designing low-carbon buildings and a reliable indicator for investors seeking sustainable ventures.
This 2-years collaborative work achieving consensus was made possible thanks to the Technical Commission, led by Elioth, by Egis and Artelia, to One Click LCA support, and all the sponsors of the initiative: alongside Generali Real Estate, AXA Investment Managers, Covivio, ICAMAP, WO2, BPI Real Estate, Bouygues Immobilier, BNP Paribas Real Estate, Ivanhoé Cambridge, NSI.
