International partnership to unlock sustainable finance on a global scale.

The UK-based Building Research Establishment (BRE), Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) and the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) have announced an international alliance to unlock the sustainable finance needed for the built environment to play its role in meeting global climate goals. The alliance will see the three organizations work together to ensure investors, property owners, developers and governments have the information they need to enact transformational change in the built environment. A major part of this will be demonstrating the critical role that verification and certification schemes play in supporting ESG reporting. This will involve raising awareness of the world’s top green building rating systems – BREEAM, Green Star and LEED – in the real estate and finance sectors. Currently, the three rating systems collectively help hundreds of thousands of buildings and projects drive towards net zero and ESG goals worldwide. This alliance comes against the backdrop of last year’s UN Global Stocktake report, which found that the international community is not on track to reach the goals of the 2015 Paris Accord. Even if all nations achieve their current Paris targets, the UN forecasts warming of 2.5°C to 2.9°C over pre-industrial levels by the end of the century, far beyond what scientists consider safe levels. The first in a series of milestones in the alliance will be the publication of a practical guide at London Climate Action Week in June 2024. The sustainable finance guide will build on an initial document developed by GBCA and launched to the Australian market in 2023. “In an era where environmental sustainability is not just a responsibility but a necessity, we fully recognize the need to drive a deeper understanding of the role of sustainable finance in addressing global challenges – most notably climate change,” said Gillian Charlesworth, CEO of the Building Research Establishment. “With our new alliance with the GBCA and USGBC, BRE hopes to strengthen global cooperation between the finance and real estate industries, and in doing so increase the uptake of sustainable finance mechanisms and deliver a decarbonized built environment not just in the UK, but across the world as well.” “The green building community has proven that buildings can accelerate global decarbonization while advancing critical human health, climate resilience, and social equity imperatives,” added Peter Templeton, CEO of the U.S. Green Building Council. “Increasing the flow of capital to buildings and portfolios delivering these outcomes is essential to expanding the scale and impact of this work.” The GBCA was established in 2002 with the support of BRE and USGBC. The two most widely used green building systems, BREEAM and LEED, were developed and are delivered by the BRE and USGBC, respectively.
