The UK arm of Frasers Property Group has become the latest firm to sight up to the Better Buildings Partnership’s Climate Change Commitment.
Businesses signed up to the commitment have all agreed to publish their net zero pathways by the end of this year.
Frasers Property UK said it was committing to developing and publishing its net zero carbon roadmap by the end of 2020, completing climate change risk assessments across all assets by end of 2022, annually disclosing its progress towards its net zero carbon roadmap, and disclosing the energy performance of its assets.
Chief executive Ilaria del Beato said: “Sustainability is a key contributor to our success. We aspire to create spaces and experiences that foster sustainable communities and a better environment for all, and aim to set industry benchmarks in building sustainable communities. This is why we have pledged to sign the BBP’s Climate Commitment.”
To date, the Climate Change Commitment has been signed by 26 companies representing over 11,000 commercial properties globally – more than £300bn assets under management – and responsible for over 1.2m tonnes of carbon emissions per annum.
