This achievement is primarily the result of a <strong>30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions<\/strong> compared to the previous year, confirming the effectiveness of the key measures implemented during the past year. These include: completing the transition to <strong>100% renewable electricity<\/strong> across the entire building portfolio; increasing in-house renewable energy production from solar panels installed on the roofs of YUNITY Park buildings; achieving <strong>BREEAM Outstanding certification<\/strong> for Building F in YUNITY Park; and optimizing energy consumption across the portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cThe independent validation by GRESB of our progress this year stands as proof of Genesis Property\u2019s strategic engagement in the ESG field.

Hundreds of capital providers and thousands of asset managers around the world use GRESB data to benchmark the ESG performance of real estate portfolios and to gain a better understanding of the opportunities, risks, and choices that influence market developments. This year\u2019s participation in the GRESB Real Estate Assessment remained steady and in line with last year\u2019s record levels, despite ongoing market uncertainty and geopolitical headwinds.
