Decarbonisation: Driving Energy Efficiency in the Built Environment through Innovative Financing and Contracting Models
Decarbonising the commercial buildings sector in New South Wales will be vital if net zero targets are to be met. With the full potential of the built environment's contribution to our carbon reduction targets yet to be taken advantage of, the right mix of targeted policy and market solutions has the potential to stimulate increased energy efficiency investment. The benefits of energy efficiency improvements within portfolios of commercial properties are significant – including cost savings, meeting climate change targets and easing energy security concerns. This presentation will discuss innovative financing and energy savings performance contracting models deployed in the UK and Europe that have been put to good effect and offer potential financing and structuring solutions that could be embraced by industry to address the unique barriers to deploying energy efficiency for property developers, construction companies, generators and energy services companies in particular.
