Your roadmap to affordable net zero carbon real estate
The EU aims to become climate neutral by 2050, an economy that does not emit greenhouse gases. Businesses need to transform their economic activities to fit the EU-Taxonomy and to fit low-carbon economy.
It is essential to be able to help and guide project leaders as early as possible to enable them to make the best global choices for the product (uses, functions, durability, societal impact, reversibility, etc.) by going beyond the sole objective of environmental certification.
Life cycle carbon emissions is a sum of mainly embodied and operational carbon.
Let’s calculate.
Our forward thinking Cost & Carbon Managers guide you on financial and carbon aspects. In this role, they manage financial risks and transitions risks and are the guardians of the long term value of your project.
Briefing/feasibility.
Real Estate Development needs an informed vision. The main criteria to judge a project’s feasibility are the costs required and the value to be attained. To fit the legal EU Green Deal frame; the CO2 scope and target are determined. Our feasibility studies aim to measure, to advise, to improve and to obtain the most favorable combination of cost & carbon.
Tendering.
In this stage bids are examined. The tender offers will be evaluated, and their cost & CO2 budget compliance will be verified. Our expert will screen the CO2 compensation options. Prices are compared to market averages. Bopro assists the client during the negotiation and contract drafting.
Concept design.
During the concept phase we continue to visualize, analyse and optimize embodied & operational CO2. Cost estimates are detailed and compared with the predetermined budget. Bopro has an alarm but also an advisory function in case deviations from the targets are identified.
Execution.
During the execution phase permanent monitoring of the CO2 budget is crucial. Bopro verifies if the products delivered to the site are indeed the low carbon products chosen during the design phase. Cost management ensures a sound financial system is maintained.
Final design.
With the carbon & cost target in mind, our Forward Thinking experts make a very detailed carbon and cost measurement. We seize this opportunity to propose the latest changes and optimization to secure the targets.
Handover.
Now it’s time to draw up the overall balance sheet. Final CO2 footprint calculations are done. This is the moment to set up the strategy & carbon budget & consumption tracking to monitor the CO2 during the In Use phase of the building.
