Retrofitting Buildings to be Future-Fit: The journey to decarbonization

Rising energy costs will hasten the move towards efficient buildings

We estimate that across the world’s most developed cities at least 90% of office buildings are over 10 years old. Most of these assets would not meet today’s energy efficiency standards for new builds and very few have firm plans in place to prepare for even more stringent regulations on the horizon as governments pivot efforts to decarbonize existing buildings.
