    Genesis Property is committed to achieving zero carbon emissions for the buildings in its portfolio by 2030, by investing in increasing energy efficiency and production from renewable sources, through sustainable building management and efficient use of resources.

    All seven buildings within YUNITY Park are already class A energy efficient. Along with the investments in buildings energy efficiency and the 1,080 photovoltaic panels installed on 4,000 sqm on the rooftops of buildings, the business park complies with the nZEB criteria as of this year, essential step for all buildings within its portfolio to become Zero Carbon Buildings (ZCB) by 2030.

    “The building stock is Europe’s largest single consumer of energy, accounting for almost 40% of the EU’s energy consumption and 36% of its carbon emissions. Thus, the reduction of carbon emissions from the buildings is essential for achieving the two major objectives of the EU included in the European Ecological Agreement: the 55% reduction of gas emissions by 2030 and the achievement of climate neutrality by 2050,” says Ioan Bejan, Sustainability Manager, Genesis Property.

    All the buildings in the Genesis Property portfolio already hold the BREEAM – Very Good certification since 2013 and are in an advanced process of obtaining the BREEAM – Outstanding certificate.
