HOW WE DO IT
Frequently asked
questions
What is a building life cycle assessment?
See less
A building life cycle assessment looks at a property’s environmental impact, considering its construction, use, and end-of-life phases.
Read moreWhat is the difference between embodied carbon and operational carbon?
See less
Embodied carbon is associated with a building’s construction materials, while operational carbon relates to its ongoing energy use during its lifespan.
Read moreWhat are the requirements to meet the certification?
See less
Planet Mark built environment certifications require the measurement and reduction of a building’s entire life carbon emissions. A Life Cycle Assessment is conducted by a Planet Mark-approved consultant to quantify this. We also require developments to meet specific carbon limits per square meter, which vary based on the type of buildings under development.
What are the benefits of my building holding a sustainability certification?
See less
Sustainability certification enhances your building’s market value, attracts environmentally conscious tenants, showcases your commitment to responsible practices, and can also contribute to reducing costs through energy-efficient and sustainable operational measures.
Can you help with net zero commitments?
See less
Yes, we can build a credible net zero pathway for your portfolio that aligns with your sustainability vision. Our approach aligns with the UK Green Building Council’s framework for net zero carbon buildings by measuring and reducing whole-life carbon emissions, at every stage from design and development to refurbishment and operational stage.
