In this episode of the EG Property Podcast EG editor Samantha McClary is joined by John Davies, head of sustainability at Derwent London, Louise Ellison, head of sustainability at Hammerson and chair of the Better Buildings Partnership, and Savannah de Savary, founder and chief executive of Built ID to talk about renewable energy in real estate.
They discuss the journey that real estate is on as it tries to shift towards more renewable energy – both on and offsite - the power that a commitment to clean energy has among the local community and the vital need for occupiers and owners to be united in their approach and commitment to renewables.
The conversation also turns to government’s new proposals to help better monitor the operational use of energy in buildings as the greatest leap forward the sector – and everyone - can take in the journey towards a net zero carbon future is to just use less of everything.
As with all discussion around sustainability, the conversation goes much deeper than just renewables.
And a mild word of warning. This podcast was recorded over Teams and at times the connection is a bit crackly so please bear with us on those few occasions where you may need to lean in just a little more.
